 * Hi there,
 * Could you please post detailed instruction on how to create and run ClouSE using
   AWS. (Most people don’t have the luxury of having root access or ability to install
   ClouSE on a shared hosting)
    Detailed instruction (step by step if it is possible
   please) on how to create a Media Server to run ClouSE using AWS would be a great
   help. I’m trying to install WP2Cloud and I’m stuck at this step. For most people,
   this will be a big turn off for them.
 * Thank you.

 * Hi – I have the instance setup and was able to follow the direction here: [https://s3.amazonaws.com/oblaksoft/oQAxEnOC2TF1/clouse-ami-instructions.htm](https://s3.amazonaws.com/oblaksoft/oQAxEnOC2TF1/clouse-ami-instructions.htm)
   until the following steps:
 * – To finish ClouSE configuration the clouse_cloud_data_url and clouse_cloud_auth_key
   options must be specified in the /etc/my.cnf file. The /etc/my.cnf file has a
   brief description of ClouSE configuration syntax.
 * – After the configuration options are specified the MySQL server must be restarted
   using the sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart command.
 * I’m connected to the instance via SSH, but I’m totally lost where and what to
   do with the steps listed above…?

 * Hi dcervenka,
 * Thank you for trying ClouSE!
 * Once you’ve logged into the instance using SSH, you can edit /etc/my.cnf using
   the following command:
 *     ```
       sudo nano /etc/my.cnf
       ```
   
 * Navigate down the file until you locate the commented out `clouse_cloud_data_url`
   option, remove the # sign in front of the option and edit the value to match 
   your bucket. Then locate `clouse_cloud_auth_key` option, remove the # sign and
   edit the value to match your access & secret keys (separated by colon).
 * If you get stuck, feel free to send an email to support (at) oblaksoft (dot) 
   com.
