HI everyone,

I want to run ansible playbook on AWX and install apache in my private ec2 instances using jump host. I setup the jumbox between private ec2 instance and AWX but still my play book is not working.

```auto
- name: Setting up apache2
    hosts: w.x.y.z.compute-1.amazonaws.com
    become_user: root
    roles:
      - role: role-install/apt-java

```

Hi @anup.sah,

Can you share the error or problem you are having? The output of the task should help.

Also, I would advise you to remove (or alter) sensitive data like IP addresses when posting. I’m editing the `hosts` line, but I can’t modify the image you embedded, so I would recommend you delete it and paste the content of the variables (mentioning it’s an inventory).

If you don’t replace the image in a while, I will go ahead and remove later today for your security!

Edit notes:

1. Replaced IP address in text
2. Added a code block tag to the play

fatal: [ip-19x-xxx-x5-xxx.ec2.internal]: UNREACHABLE! =\> {“changed”: false, “msg”: “Failed to connect to the host via ssh: ssh: connect to host ip-192-168-95-212.ec2.internal port 22: Connection timed out”, “unreachable”: true}

This is the issue which i am facing while running the playbook.

```auto
- name: Install nginx and start service
hosts: [ec2-19x-xxx-x5-xxx0.compute-1.amazonaws.com](http://ec2-19x-xxx-x5-xxx0.compute-1.amazonaws.com)
remote_user: root
become: yes
tasks:
- name: install nginx
apt:
name: nginx
state: latest

- name: install nginx
service:
name: nginx
state: started

```

this one is the playbook i have written for nginx install.

@Nikhil I think this is the same as the topic you’re already opened ([I want to run playbook in a private ec2 instance through a jumpbox server and i am running my playbook through AWX and AWX is installed in a another ec2 instance](http://forum.ansible.com/t/i-want-to-run-playbook-in-a-private-ec2-instance-through-a-jumpbox-server-and-i-am-running-my-playbook-through-awx-and-awx-is-installed-in-a-another-ec2-instance/255)) right? You’ve already had a reply there - if that didn’t solve your problem it’s best to say why rather than jumping on another topic and asking the question again.
