AWS S3: The bucket you are attempting to access must be addressed using the specified endpoint

Question

I am trying to delete uploaded image files with the AWS-SDK-Core Ruby Gem.

I have the following code:

require 'aws-sdk-core'

def pull_picture(picture)

    Aws.config = {

        :access_key_id => ENV["AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID"],

        :secret_access_key => ENV["AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY"],

        :region => 'us-west-2'

    }

    s3 = Aws::S3::Client.new

    test = s3.get_object(

        :bucket => ENV["AWS_S3_BUCKET"],

        :key => picture.image_url.split('/')[-2],   

    )

end

However, I am getting the following error:

The bucket you are attempting to access must be addressed using the specified endpoint. Please send all future requests to this endpoint.

I know the region is correct because if I change it to us-east-1, the following error shows up:

The specified key does not exist.

What am I doing wrong here?

Answer 1

If you receive this statement:

The bucket you are attempting to access must be addressed using the specified endpoint. Please send all future requests to this endpoint.

Then your bucket must have been created in a different region. The standard US region is us-east-1
