Create an account with Amazon AWS.
On the home page, click the services tab and then go to compute and click 'EC2'. Once you are there you will chose your region on the top of the page in the header section. Next click the 'Launch Instance' button at the center of the page and then select an AMI. For this tutorial I am using Ubuntu Server 16.04 LTS.
Next you will need to choose an instance type. I am just going to use the t2.large for the tutorial.
You can then skip to step six and under the source tap select my IP.
Next press Review and Launch and then create a new key pair to be able to connect with your instance. Once the instance is live, you can connect to your instance using an SSH through Terminal, PuTTY or similar program.
Download key pair that you created earlier
Make sure you are in the same directory as the key and allow permissions
chmod 600 <key-name>.pem
SSH into instance
ssh -i <key-name>.pem ubuntu@<EC2-IP-Address>

After npm is installed you will have to log out and then back into your instance and continue installing dependancies.
source ~/.profile
nvm install 0.10.48
nvm use 0.10.48
nvm alias default 0.10.48
nvm use default
Install Apache2 for hosting the front end.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install apache2
Adjust firewall to allow Apache full.
sudo ufw allow 'Apache Full'
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/qwertycoin-org/qwertycoin

Let the blockchain sync before continuing
To sync the blockchain faster follow this guide
control b + d to exit tmux
After you generated a new wallet exit it and run this:
tmux
./simplewallet --wallet-file <wallet_name> --password <wallet_password> --rpc-bind-port 8198
control b + d to exit tmux

Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/dvandal/cryptonote-nodejs-pool.git pool
cd pool && npm update
Copy the config_examples/qwertycoin.json file to config.json
cp config_examples/qwertycoin.json config.json
Change the following variables: Line 2 - Pool host to your pools IP Address Line 30 - Your simplewallet address that you generated Line 138 - Set your API password Line 125-127 - (Optional) change pool fees
sudo cp -rf js/ lang/ pages/ themes/ admin.html config.js index.html /var/www/html
Edit config.js to use your pool's specific configuration
cd && cd pool
node init.js
Your pool should now be visible at your server's IP address
You can visit your admin page by appending admin.html to your server IP address in your browsers search bar like so:
http://server-ip-address/admin.html
Your admin password is your API password you set earlier in config.json
