Hello,

I cannot get S3 uploads working with NEW S3 buckets.

I have created a new bucket and user in AWS Ireland. The credentials work and the bucket can be written to (validated using other software). When I use them with Akeeba, I get the following error:

Upload cannot be initialised. Amazon S3 returned an error message: 0 :: Akeeba\Engine\Postproc\Connector\S3v4\Connector::startMultipart(): [0] The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your key and signing method. Debug info: SimpleXMLElement Object ( [Code] => SignatureDoesNotMatch [Message] => The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your key and signing method.  ...


If I add an older bucket to Akeeba, it works fine. If I give the user permission to write to an older bucket, it also works fine. (IE it doesn't appear to be a problem with the S3 user or policy). The S3 settings appear exactly the same in between the two S3 buckets.

The bucket name is all lower-case, as is the user.

I have generated new keys several times; it makes no difference. The keys work using Coda to connect.

It seems as if Akeeba cannot write to newly created buckets only?

Thoughts appreciated!

Hello Nick,

can you please install the latest dev release and try again?
Amazon changed their own API , so we had to update our code, too
