Unable To Connect To Amazon AWS Instance Using Java SSH

Question

I'm trying to connect to an instance that I've created.

I select the instance, chose "A Java SSH client directly from my browser (Java required)" and enter the path to my key pair file.

However when I click "Launch SSH Client" nothing happens.

There isn't an error message.

Am I misunderstanding what I'm meant to be doing, or is there something going wrong?

Answer 1

if you are using a SAFARI then the problem is actually very simple. For security purposes, SAFARi installs java but does not enable it. Just go to web preferences and Enable JAVA

Answer 2

Solution ended up being to reinstall Java.
