Create a Lightsail instance and install the CodeDeploy agent

Question

While following this tutorial, I created the instance with the desired script. Yet, when I ssh in and run

sudo service codedeploy-agent status

<

Answer 1

If I created the instance using Amazon Linux 2, ssh in and run

sudo service codedeploy-agent status

then would get the error

Redirecting to /bin/systemctl status codedeploy-agent.service

Unit codedeploy-agent.service could not be found.

In order to fix it, created a new instance but this time made sure to be using Amazon Linux.

Now, when running

sudo service codedeploy-agent status

I get the following result

The AWS CodeDeploy agent is running as PID 2780
