I am new to EC2 (and Tomcat, for that matter), and I am trying to deploy a vanilla Tomcat 7 server to an Ubuntu 12.04.1 EC2 instance and access the default test site over HTTP.

My EC2 instance is running, and the Security Group includes port 80:

Security Groups

My /etc/tomcat7/server.xml config has been edited to listen for HTTP requests on port 80:

server.xml 0

I have restarted my Tomcat 7 server via sudo service tomcat7 restart.

However, according to sudo netstat -lnp, Tomcat is not listed as listening over port 80:

netstat

I am unable to get any response from going to the ...amazonaws.com public DNS in a web browser.

What am I missing?
