301 Moved Permanently

Executing the command with an S3 bucket located in Sydney Australia (ap-southeast-1) throws an error.

root@vmd001 [/path/to/folder/test]# /path/to/folder/s3-parallel-put --bucket=vmd001 --put=add --insecure --dry-run --limit=1 .

Got same error.

This is not addressed on the README, but if you look at the code there's an option to set the AWS region as --bucket_region=YOUR_REGION.

In my case setting it to my region, eu-west-1, solved the issue:

./s3-parallel-put --bucket=MY_BUCKET \
   --put=stupid
   --dry-run --limit=1
   --bucket_region=eu-west-1
   --insecure
   .

Is it fixed yet?

[mishudark]

no yet

[aaronflorey]

I found removing the following fixed it for me

calling_format = boto.s3.connection.OrdinaryCallingFormat(),

[nealalpert]

commenting out calling_format = boto.s3.connection.OrdinaryCallingFormat(), seems to result in a 400 being returned for me. any word on a work around for this?

[nealalpert]

After some investigation we narrowed down the issue to

s3-parallel-put/s3-parallel-put

Line 289 in 4121cce

connection = S3Connection(is_secure=options.secure, host=options.host)

The initial connection uses boto.s3.connect_to_region but the child processes do not.

Swapping this line for

connection = boto.s3.connect_to_region(options.bucket_region,
is_secure=options.secure,
)

seemed to fix our issue and allow us to upload to a region other than us-east-1.

To use a non-default region you must specify both the --bucket_region and the --host, as follows:
s3-parallel-put --bucket=$BUCKET . --bucket_region=ca-central-1 --host=s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com
