A fractal spectrum of tales
- Ghost up and running on Amazon EC2
I had my free Amazon EC2 instance waiting for this moment since my last use of it.
I spent my few free hours setting up a decent (I hope) theme for Ghost, and reading around what to do and what not to do to have it up and running. My main reference was the nice blog post How to set up an Amazon EC2 instance to host ghost for free.
I followed more or less all the steps suggested in the guide but there was still something missing: I wanted my Ghost blog to be running even when I am not logged in the EC2 instance.

Update: this site is now statically served using Pelican. I had problems with my VPS provider and finally decided to simplify the management and opted for a statically generated website. Ghost was very light and did well its job, if I had a multi-user environment I would be sticking with it. I still keep all the content from the previous blog, including this post.
That’s just the welcome post of a succesful ghost installation. I like to keep it and have a look of what one can do with Markdown.
