    On first login you will get the ‘Message of the Day ‘ asking to update additional tools. To install updates just type in the command prompt

    sudo yum update

    Before you can install Railo install Apache to handle all web traffic i.e 80.

    sudo yum install httpd httpd-devel

    Next make sure make sure the service is loaded at startup of the instance.

    sudo chkconfig --level 2345 httpd on

    Now navigate to the instance in a browser. You may need to allow traffic on port 80 in your security group. I just edited my security group to allow http traffic on that port from within the AWS console.

    Next to install Railo started by creating a directory to download Railo into.

    sudo mkdir /temp

    Then CD into this folder.

    cd /temp

    Next download Ralio to the newly created folder.

    sudo wget http://www.getrailo.org/down.cfm?item=/railo/remote/download/4.0.0.013/tomcat/linux/railo-4.0.0.013-BETA2-linux-x64-installer.run

    Replace above URL with the most current stable release.

    Before ruining the installer make sure to change the permission on the file you just downloaded in this case…

    sudo chmod 777 railo-4.0.0.013-BETA2-linux-x64-installer.run

    Run the installer

    sudo ./ railo-4.0.0.013-BETA2-linux-x64-installer.run

    Railo should now be running on port 8888.
