Rather than look for an AMI with the software pre-installed, simply run an official Ubuntu server AMI and install the standard Ubuntu packages for the software you want.

It's probably as simple as:

sudo apt-get update &&
sudo apt-get upgrade &&
sudo apt-get install apache2 ...

Then tweak configuration and add your content / application.

If you are trying to run a version of software more recent than the one provided with the official release, then you may need to do a bit more work.

Remember to document / script exactly how you create the instance so that you can do it again in the future when you need to.
