Answer 1

Basically the error was because I was using old version of aws-sdk and I updated the version so this error occured.

in my case with node js i was using signatureVersion in parmas object like this :

const AWS_S3 = new AWS.S3({
  params: {
    Bucket: process.env.AWS_S3_BUCKET,
    signatureVersion: 'v4',
    region: process.env.AWS_S3_REGION
  }
});

Then I put signature out of params object and worked like charm :

const AWS_S3 = new AWS.S3({
  params: {
    Bucket: process.env.AWS_S3_BUCKET,
    region: process.env.AWS_S3_REGION
  },
  signatureVersion: 'v4'
});
