Unable to upload application to Amazon S3

Question

Using Eclipse, latest version, latest Java AWS SDK I can suddenly no longer deploy to elasticbeanstalk (neither "Run on Server" nor AWS/Deploy to AWS Elastic Beanstalk).

I can export a war file and upload via beanstalk web console w/o problems. It used to work for months and I didn't change anything, credentials are ok. The error message I get is:

Unable to upload application to Amazon S3: AWS authentication requires a valid Date or x-amz-date header (Service: Amazon S3; Status Code: 403; Error Code: AccessDenied; Request ID: xxx)

Bump? Searched everywhere... Any help truly welcome!

Answer 1

I finally figured it out, may be of help to someone else. The culprit was a script which wouldn't upload with a newer AWS SDK version and Eclipse (worked well within the web console). I could modify and export war file then upload via console. Now I had to remove all aws preferences (Windows: user dir .aws), delete all servers and in Eclipse Run as/Run on Server/Manually choose/choose from AWS list/and then in Next, on the bottom, "import an exsisting environment". Then just leave the dialog and a freshly generated server can then be selected. Thanks everybody for helping!

I also had a similar error reported on my eclipse AWS installation on my MacBook Pro.

I had

AWS Toolkit for Eclipse Core (Required) 2.3.1.v201508061154
AWS Elastic Beanstalk 1.0.0.v201508062254

installed.

To fix this, I completely uninstalled all the AWS plugins from eclipse and then added them from the http://aws.amazon.com/eclipse site, and then removed the AWS elastic beanstalk app and environment from the beanstalk server.

In this process, I had to enter my AWS credentials, and setup the AWS server, app and environment. I am now able to deploy my AWS web app from eclipse.

Answer 3

I was experiencing the same issue. My solution:

1. Remove all aws preferences (Windows: user dir .aws)
2. Uninstall the AWS Plugins (Help->About->Installation Details). On the installed Software tab, highlight all AWS plugins and select uninstall.
3. I then Reinstalled required plugins from: http://aws.amazon.com/eclipse and all was well again.

(There were restarting of eclipse between uninstall and reinstall too)

No need to remove the environments and create new ones.

Have you recently upgraded your eclipse SDK version?

I had a similar issue however was using the .NET Visual Studio SDK, try re-adding your account credentials within the eclipse plugin and check that you can successfully browse S3.
