Thanks, Quang. That's not exactly what I'm looking for. My motivation is to teach an entire class how to start a Galaxy cluster on their own, with minimal knowledge of AWS or systems administration. The "cloudlaunch" feature on the main psx site seems to fit this purpose exactly, but does not work reliably for me. I've just tried using Chrome 24.0 with no success. I'm using no browser plugins, and this is a clean installation with javascript enabled. The cloudlaunch page just sits there and tells me "Launch Pending, please be patient." and I have - it's been over an hour. Any help figuring this out is appreciated. If this feature is just not mature enough to use in a classroom, that would be an acceptable answer as well.

There was a brief EC2 API outage yesterday (on the Amazon end) that caused intermittent errors to all users of the API (including cloudlaunch), but that should be resolved now. Creating security groups and selecting (or creating, if necessary) an access key should be possible -- since it's not even getting that far I'm wondering if there isn't a Javascript error or something preventing the form submission. What browser are you using, and do you see any errors? -Dannon On Jan 17, 2013, at 5:11 PM, Matthew Shirley <mshir...@jhmi.edu> wrote: I've searched the list to see if anyone specifically mentions not being able to use the "cloud launch" feature on the main public instance, but no one seems to address it. I have no trouble launching Galaxy-cloudman using an AMI and pasting in my own user data. However, I can't successfully use the cloud launch page to do the same. I've tried letting it create a new security group as well as using a pre-existing security group. Also, I've then deleted all security groups to see if it would create one, which it did not. Similarly, I tried creating a new access key pair, with no further success. I make it through the process of entering the key ID and secret key, it pulls existing security group information into the drop-down selector, and I give a cluster name and password and submit the form. Then it just stalls forever. No new security groups and no EC2 instances launched. What is the state of this tool?
