Getting started with NITRC-CE
Hello-
I found the NITRC-CE, which seems like a great tool that I would like to use to run some neuroimaging training programs I am developing. While the VirtualBox image works fine, I also need to build a machine locally as well as launching them on the AWS.

AWS: I'm able to get a machine up and running and connect via SSH, but the web interface does not seem to be working. When I dug a bit into it, it looks like the issue is that the manage_ssl.py script is not able to get a SSL certificate for some reason and thus the httpd container fails and exits since the certificate directory is empty. The message it receives from the url that is linked to the environment variable NITRC_CE_AWS_API_ENDPOINT returns a message that says Limit Exceeded. 

In terms of building locally, I looked at the documentation Building Your Own NITRC-CE, I found on the website, it means an install.sh script, but the latest script I got from Download appears to be ansible based. So I got my sys admin to set me up a VM with base Ubuntu 18.04 installed. However I ran into a few errors, and I was wondering if I should be looking at another page for ansible-based install instructions? Or am I not using the ansible in the intended purpose (as in it is really meant only for the virtual box and amazon based applications that seem to be mention in the playbook.yml file).

Many thanks for your help!
Dave
