Amazon EC2 instance hosting

I have a application hosted in amazon EC2 instance. My application runs at http://ec2...compute-1.amazonaws.com/index.html. We also have a domain registered as sovan.test.com. WE want to use Route53 for redirect/open http://ec2...compute URL when user used the registered domain name. How can we do this?

We are getting an error that we can not host anything with index as back. and also it do not detect http:.

Please give some advice.

Thanks

Amazon Route53 is a Domain Name Service, which can resolve names into IP addresses. For example, if a user types www.foo.com, it can return the IP address of a web server of load balancer that will respond to a request.

Note that is only resolves the domain, which is the initial part of an address. It does not resolve the path portion of a URL. For example, going to www.foo.com/index.html will result in resolving www.foo.com to an IP address, then sending a request for the index.html page to that server. The index.html portion is not part of the DNS resolution.
