Mahesh B · Accepted Answer

If you can't connect to a running Amazon Linux instance via SSH, check the following - ensure the correct key pair is used, verify security group rules allow inbound traffic on port 22, confirm the instance is in a "running" state, and check for any firewall settings on the instance. Additionally, ensure you're using the correct public IP or DNS and review instance logs for errors.
