Here is the command sample aws s3 cp /home/abc/icon.jpg s3://mybucket/myfolder

This the error i am getting

upload failed: ./icon.jpg to s3://mybucket/myfolder/icon.jpg HTTPSConnectionPool(host='s3-us-west-1b.amazonaws.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /mybucket/myfolder/icon.jpg (Caused by : [Errno -2] Name or service not known)

I have already configured the config file for aws cli command line

Answer 1

You aren't using a valid endpoint.

s3-us-west-1b.amazonaws.com isn't valid.

S3 endpoints are at the regional level, not the availability zone level.

You're probably looking for s3-us-west-1.amazonaws.com.

Answer 2

The issue is you have to use just region which you can see from aws console url there you can find region in url just copy it and use which is your region

Availability Zone is different which use have used earlier

Availability zone is followed by region along with region a, region b

availability zone status

Answer 3

One possible issue could be that proxy might not have been set in your instance service role. Configure the env to point to your proxy servers via HTTP_PROXY / HTTPS_PROXY (Since the above error displays 443, it should be HTTPS_PROXY).
