After you deploy

  1. The CloudFormation wizard opens with everything prefilled (stack "corenova-freshrss-1-30-0") — review and click "Create stack".
  2. Wait until the stack status reaches CREATE_COMPLETE (about 10 minutes). Outputs are only visible after completion.
  3. Open the stack's Outputs tab — everything you need is there:
    • ResolvedLaunchUrlAccess URL — open this in your browser
    • PublicIpThe instance's public IP
    • PublicDnsNameThe instance's public DNS name
  4. Open the access URL in your browser — the app is ready to use.
  5. Admin console — Open your access URL followed by this path: /

    The first visit opens the installation wizard (language, database — keep SQLite — then the admin account form). There are no preset credentials.

Good to know

  • Feeds database and config live on a retained volume (/var/www/FreshRSS/data). It keeps billing after stack deletion; snapshot it, then delete the volume when no longer needed.

Next steps

  • Your data lives at /var/www/FreshRSS/data inside the container, on an encrypted EBS volume. Find the instance by its ID in the EC2 console.
  • Back up before any changes: Upgrading and backups guide
  • To upgrade to a newer verified version: Version history

Deleting the stack terminates the host, but the data volume is retained and continues billing. Snapshot it first, then delete the retained volume manually when you no longer need it.

FAQ

  • CoreNova Launch verifies software and provides deployable artifacts; deployment runs in your own AWS account.
  • Verification status comes from the upstream Manifest — the site never guesses it.
