If you wait a while, you will see some additional messages appear. When ACE has fully started, the web UI should be visible on the mentioned address. If this takes more than a minute (on current hardware) something is wrong, and maybe, as Jean Baptiste said, something else is running on port 8080? > * After I issue any command in Gogo, start receiving the following > reoccuring Exception (occurs every 15 seconds) [..snip..] > * Then get the message > WARNING: Cannot retry after server error, command has > exceeded retry limit 5: [request=POST > https://ec2.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/ HTTP/1.1] > * I am behind a proxy, so that may be the issue. Why it is trying > to contact amazonaws? How can I configure a proxy? That is a bug. One of the recently added bundles is jcloud support, which basically allows you to install ACE in the cloud and have the ACE server automatically start a new cloud node for every target you define. We have that working with Amazon's EC-2 but you need to provide an Amazon key for it to work. Appearantly, if you don't do that, the bundle is not completely shut down. It is safe to ignore this message though. > * When I try to access http://localhost:8080/ace using a local > browser, I get a HTTP ERROR 404.

We use the OSGi LogService, but that by default does not dump its log to disk. You should be able to see log messages in the shell however. > * How do I shutdown the server?

I never did understand why Gogo does not add an alias like "quit" or "exit" to make that easier for the user. Greetings, Marcel
