To install Huginn on AWS, fill the Vagrantfile with your account details and run

vagrant up ec2 --provider=aws

To install it on a virtualbox VM:

vagrant up vb

It'll install huginn and get the server started. You can now go to yourserver.com/3000 to use huginn if you are in virtualbox. On ec2, pointing to public DNS will let you access huginn. Huginn will be at /home/huginn/huginn. A new dedicated user will be created for managing huginn with username huginn and password huginn. To ssh into ec2:

vagrant ssh ec2

Similarly, to ssh into VirtualBox

vagrant ssh vb

After ssh-ing into ec2, you can start(its already running), stop or restart huginn by

sudo start huginn
sudo stop huginn
sudo restart huginn

To terminate ec2 instance:

vagrant destroy ec2

Similarly, to destroy VirtualBox VM

vagrant destroy vb
