    I am getting

    Error: Unable to create distribution for origin domainname.com (S3::createDistribution(‘domainname.com’, ‘custom’, 1, ”, ”): [7] Failed to connect to cloudfront.amazonaws.com port 80: Connection refused).

    When I create a pull Cloudfron distro.

    Seems that I can’t connect to cloudfront. the server is inside a VPC but outbound traffic is allowed on security group, I have generated a policy for this user with permissions to create distributions and access an S3 bucket, and the IAM user is activated, keys are correct.

    I have tested the policy with the policy simulator and it works.

    What else can be ? I am on a fresh WP4 installation with the latest version of the plugin, can someone shed some light over here ?

    Thanks

    With the policy I am using, I can connect with this user to a S3 bucket but not create a CF distro. It’s weird cause as I said I tested a generated policy with the policy simulator and it works.

    Thanks

    Solved. You can’t create distros over port 80. It was trying to create the distro over port 80 instead of 443 because php-ssl was disabled, so connection was refused.
