Hi, yes ... but the location_constraint parameter only accepts the values 'US' or 'EU' ... correct? Therefore you'll end up either at the Irland location (EU) or at the US East - N. Virginia location (US). I can't specify other valid AWS locations like eu-central-1 (Frankfurt). See complete list of location constraints: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html Even if I create a bucket in the AWS console - and than using this bucket in my Perl script - I can't create objects in that bucket.

Isn't it because of the Signature V4? This GitHub PR might fix it. ($q=q:Sq=~/;[c](.)(.)/;chr(-\|\|-\|5+lengthSq)`"S\|oS2"`map{chr \|+ord }map{substrSq`S_+\|`\|}3E\|-\|`7**2-3:)=~y+S\|`+$1,++print+eval$q,q,a, [download]	[reply] [d/l]

Before using `location_constraint` you must pass the `host` parameter to the Net::Amazon::S3 constructor. (Note I have never found it necessary to use the param after connecting in this way). Here's how I do it: `$conf = { aws_access_key_id => 'foo', aws_secret_access_key => 'bar', host => 's3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com', }; my $s3_base = Net::Amazon::S3->new( $conf ); my $s3 = Net::Amazon::S3::Client->new( s3 => $s3_base ); my $bucket = $s3->bucket( name => $bucket_name ); ...` [download] Hope this helps! The way forward always starts with a minimal test.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Dammit. The direction of the answer from the last thread was to use this module.	[reply]

Well I don't know what to tell you, other than to suggest that when someone tells you to use Module::X/product X/Service X, take the time to read the documentation and if possible open bugs. It'll save you a lot of time. FWIW this interface looks to be easier to use than the legacy one.	[reply]
