default "Proxy" tag is auto removed by AWS ?!

Open Fabiencdp opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

Hello,

Expected Behavior

EC2 instances should stay up.

Actual Behavior

When using AWS and since really soon, All instances with the tag "Proxy" is automatically terminated by AWS. I'm a AWS newbee and i didn't touched anything since a while. Is there a settings/security that can make this happen ? It happen even if i try to create or rename an aws instance outside of scraproxy.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

  1. Just run an instance like t1.micro with default config (and credential)

Specifications

  • Version of Scrapoxy: 3.1.1

Thanks, Fabien

@skwidy, A temporary solution is to change the instance tag in your config file. But anyway, AWS will block this new tag again and again.

As a fix it would be great to randomize the tag for AWS (eg: Proxy_${timestamp})

soooo.. even if you use a new tag, based on "But anyway, AWS will block this new tag again and again." ... it sounds like scrapoxy won't work on AWS any more, since AWS is going to just terminate the proxies?

I didn't work anymore on my side project that use scraproxy, so i can't tell if somethings moved. As i remember, AWS auto-kills appends after that an amount of instance with the same name was created. Simply find a way to randomize the tag name and it should be good enough.

I am fairly certain AWS does not remove anything. Most likely you've (inadvertently) had a second instance of Scrapoxy running with different scaling settings, and they killed each other's instances.

should be easier with easy install feature in Scrapoxy 4.0.0
