This Esri article doesn't explain how to become a root for the AWS Marketplace instance that runs Ubuntu. This guide is useful for post-installation steps.
Step-by-step guide
Use ubuntu username instead of arcgis
- Open SSH port 22 in security group of the instance. By default, only HTTP/HTTPS ports are open.
- ssh -i ~/.ssh/Joe-SDT.pem ubuntu@(IP address)
- sudo -i
- apt-get update
- apt install emacs
- apt upgrade
- It's OK to apply security patches and upgrade packages
reboot
arcgis user account has no su privilege |
arcgisserver.service
Although the Esri guide says that the service file needs to be copied over, it is already installed.
