BPMS (BizAgi Xpress) on an AWS Instance!

I'm going to be honest, this process gave me a headache for numerous reasons. After I created my instance on AWS it asked me to input my 2 page long password, for which it was incorrect (though copied and pasted directly). I then terminated my process and attempted the process again. After waiting 30 minutes to retrieve my Windows Password for the second time, my 2 page password was finally accepted. I continued to follow the step-by-step process which was very well documented and easy to understand. The task was nearing an end once I completed my installation of the IIS and BizAgi Express with no problems (suprisingly enough). However, just when I think I am done, I encounter another problem which has yet to be solved. After loading BizAgi Xpress and choosing the option of using a project template, I was asked to type my server name, username and login. With many trail and error combination attempts, no additional information provided, and 5 new grey hairs later, I discovered that other students encountered the same problem as well and couldn't solve it either.

Even though my AWS BizAgi Instance failed me, I still feel that being in the cloud made for a very interesting experience.
