I just tried a couple of scenarios and they all worked as expected (e.g., with and without elastic IPs, different instance types). The main CloudMan log is located in /mnt/cm/paster.log, on both master and worker instances (if you didn't download the ssh key from cloudlaunch, you can ssh with ubuntu username and the same password as provided on the cloudlaunch form). The log is also available from the UI if you go to Admin page and then click 'Show CloudMan log' under 'System controls'. If you can share that, we can hopefully figure out what's going on.

Dear Enis, Thanks for your help with this. I can confirm that if I use a password that doesn’t start with an exclamation mark the cloudman adding nodes works fine, it can contain an ! but just not start with one. Knowing where to look logs-wise will really help – is there a schematic at all somewhere that shows the Cloudman startup procedure? I’m working on one for my own understanding but I’m a firm believer in not reinventing the wheel.

I realised that I accidentally posted this to the list previously so don't worry about it being here I've killed that particular cluster. When I was trying different configurations, etc I also consistently used the same password format (which I will no longer use now I posted it to a public mail list like a moron). I assume since ec2autorun is first in the bootstrap setup if it fails then so does everything else. I'll try it with a different password format - and get back to you (I have a meeting just now). But this looks like an issue with the password format to me...and possibly a bug in the script?
