Magento packaged by Bitnami
Bitnami by VMware | 2.4.4-6 on Debian 11Linux/Unix, Debian 11 - 64-bit Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
Honestly, its a 5/5 and Bitnami is just amazing
I have been working with Magento for over 5 years and I don't think I could do without it. Its a piece of software that is editable at almost every level and that makes it a very very strong product. You can tweak it to resemble any other product out there so there is no use comparing Magento to any other product since it can be edited easily to look like any other product out there. Honestly I do not see the sense in rating software products since they can always be tweaked to fit a different narrative especially when the parent developer allows it and Magento gives you access to almost every level, for free. It deserves more than a 5/5. It must have taken thousands of hours to come up with such a product and be able to offer it for free. At the same time, the product is always going through improvements so a rating that was done yesterday does not mean that it reflects tomorrow's release of the same product.

Buggy
As others have stated, not working out of the box.
Not possible to log in with supplied credentials, not possible to create another admin account to log in with in stead.
Not possible to find login credentials in the logs.
I'm not one for giving up, but sometimes you have to cut your losses.
Works fine but be patient
The instance takes a little bit time to start (around 30 minutes in a t3.small instance, dev purpose) before you can even connect through ssh.
But now, the CMS seems to works fine. The authentication to the back-office worked as expected.
Did not try the others functionality yet but for now everything is ok.
Thank you bitnami.
bad image
user credentials found on log file don't work...
home page stuck in a loop on smartphone...
lots of bugs, waste of time, found another image that work perfectly
bye bye
Very buggy
I found this instance to be very buggy and Magento was almost unusable due to the the repeated errors that something went wrong and several others. I spent almost a day on this, including resetting the instance once and finally gave up. I chose a different AMI with Magento, and having the fortunate opportunity to compare this side by side with a working release, I can be confident in my assessment that this is a very poorly released image, I do not recommend it. You'll spend a tremendous amount of time trying to fix what should work out of the box. This was not ready for release, and I would caution to stay away from this vendor based on this experience.
Really worst magento 2 app

(Something to do with HTTP->HTTPS redirection)
Please solve this issue.
Works great, you need to pay attention to the details to get your passwords
Very very nicely done, it works just fine out of the box. It took me quite a while to figure out how to get the password is the reason some else gave 1 star.
I've pretty much made every mistake possible while trying to install this image, all were user errors, the image is perfect!
So let me explain it to make life easier:
1. Before you install the image, create a Key Pair in Amazon EC2, save the .PEM file which will be used to login to the server (SSH console), without this file you can't login.
Instructions: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/ec2-key-pairs.html#having-ec2-create-your-key-pair
2. After installing the image, you can login to the SSH console for the server using the PuTTY application (NOTE: there is no "password", only a username and a digital signature file from step 1):
Configure PuTTY to use your .PEM file that you saved in step 1 (you will actually need to convert the .PEM file to a .PPK file, VERY easy see instructions link). This file will be your "password"
Login username: bitnami
Instructions: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/putty.html
3. Now you need your "application" password which is used for Magento admin , MySql and PhPAdmin. To get this you will need to open your "System log" from the Amazon EC2 instance -> Actions -> Instance Settings -> Get Instance Log. Scroll down and you should see something like this:
[ 20.415342] bitnami[1216]: #########################################################################
[ 20.421257] bitnami[1216]: # #
[ 20.431029] bitnami[1216]: # Setting Bitnami application password to '1GvPd6mWaKZn' #
[ 20.439698] bitnami[1216]: # (the default application username is 'user') #
[ 20.446963] bitnami[1216]: # #
[ 20.451164] bitnami[1216]: #########################################################################
Save this "password" and the default username is 'user'
NOTE: You have 24 hours to retrieve this password from the system log after the machine FIRST starts, so it quick otherwise the log will be overwritten and the password is lost (you can reset it but it's a PITA).
Instructions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwg6Rr0lmoE
Once you've got these password, now you can change them and login to the Magento Admin interface etc etc.
Instructions: https://docs.bitnami.com/aws/apps/magento/#first-steps-with-the-bitnami-magento-stack
I will keep updating this review as I get further into it, but so far so good. I hope this helps folks who're struggling with the "passwords".
