Folks,
I'm having trouble configuring a SQL 2008 R2 subscriber on an AWS EC2 server.
I must setup merge replication and subscribers at least once a week for the past couple of years without any issues, or at least ones I can usually find an answer for.
No matter what I've tried, including the IE settings turned off for Connections -> LAN Settings ->Automatically Detect and Use configuration script the error "The proxy auto-configuration url was not found" persists.
Placing the URL in the IE address allows me to get to "SQL Server WebSync ISAPI"
I also have other subscribers working happily with the same publisher.
Is there anything special about AWS that could be causing this? I've never had a server I couldn't configure.
Thanks in advance
