<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Seb/Claude,<br>
<br>
Hopefully this should be an easy answer.<br>
<br>
I’ve been trying to get Visualizer up and running on aws. I used the ami mentioned below (ami-34f3f65e) and can load the page in a browser which brings up the 'ParaViewWeb' logo and a spinning cog. After a short while I get an error message 'Session did not
start before timeout expired. Check session logs.'<br>
<br>
Other than installing a local browser I've not changed much of anything on the AMI. What am I doing wrong? I assume it's something simple that I'm missing, like do I need to drop in a dataset somewhere before it'll even load the page?<br>
<br>
Kind regards,<br>
Llion<br>
