Jupyter Notebook on AWS hangs

Question

I followed the instructions on how to setup jupyter on a AWS instance, but am unable to access it from my personal computer at the address https://127.0.0.1:8157 after setting up the ssh tunnel and starting the notebook. It just hangs. Anyone have ideas on how to fix.

I used the following security settings

I opened a tunnel as so

ssh -i keypair.pem -L 8157:127.0.0.1:8888 ubuntu@

and ran the instance as

$ jupyter notebook
[I 03:59:30.778 NotebookApp] Serving notebooks from local directory: /home/ubuntu/qlearning [I 03:59:30.778 NotebookApp] 0 active kernels [I 03:59:30.779 NotebookApp] The Jupyter Notebook is running at: http://localhost:8888/?token=4b35857968acb4a75dc4b7fdd246c20b967dcfaaa13799c2 [I 03:59:30.779 NotebookApp] Use Control-C to stop this server and shut down all kernels (twice to skip confirmation). [W 03:59:30.779 NotebookApp] No web browser found: could not locate runnable browser. [C 03:59:30.779 NotebookApp]
Copy/paste this URL into your browser when you connect for the first time,
to login with a token:
    http://localhost:8888/?token=4b35857968acb4a75dc4b7fdd246c20b967dcfaaa13799c2

But both https://127.0.0.1:8157/ and https://127.0.0.1:8157/?token=4b35857968acb4a75dc4b7fdd246c20b967dcfaaa13799c2 hang.

You should use http://127.0.0.1:8157 not https://

*There's no need to open port 8888 in the security group, as you are tunneling the connection through port 22.
