Hi all, My website allows users to upload photographs which I store on Amazon's S3. I store the original upload as well as an optimized image and a thumbnail. I want to allow users to be able to export all of their original versions when their subscription expires. So I am thinking the following problems arise Could be a large volume ...
The following bucket policy is returning a malformed error: { "Version": "2008-10-17", "Id":"S3Policy", "Statement":[ { "Sid":"1", "Effect": "Allow", "Principal": { "AWS": ["AWSID"] }, "Action": ["s3:GetObject", "s3:PutObject"], "Resource": "arn:aws:s3:::BUCKETNAME/*" ] } } I'm trying to create a policy where all files within BUCKETNA...
I am using PHP S3.PHP class to manage files on Amazon S3. I use the copyObject() function to copy files in my S3 bucket. All works great until I meet filenames that need to be urlencoded (I urlencode everything anyway). When a filename ends up with % characters in it the copyObject() function spits the dummy. for example - the filename...

I'm using Texticle to do full-text search on Heroku. It's working great. I'm now trying to setup nightly db backups to Amazon s3 using this script. When I try heroku rake backups:backup I first get this error: /disk1/home/slugs/245176_566b3d9_4845/mnt/.bundle/gems/bundler/gems/texticle-3a96c70a9fa60921197f0027204a23824435b142-ee972f...
Hi, Just put our new site live, and having trouble with one of the swf files playing. Using the colorbox jquery plugin throughout the site and this works fine. However a movie on http://www.learningassistant.com/qcf (qcf engine movie) gives out a repeated javascript 'Access is denied' error everytime you close the colorbox?? Perhaps...
One of my clients has a site which displays media that has been uploaded from a client application. This application initially used FTP, but we're moving to S3 for various data storage and performance reasons. What I would like to be able to do is have this client upload a file directly to our central S3 store (ala dropbox/jungledisk e...
I have an S3 bucket setup as a streaming distribution with a CloudFront service attached to it. There are fairly sizable .flv files in there which I use to hook up JWPlayer using signed URL's. After about a month of hosting these videos in S3 (and they have been watched by web site visitors several times), I just logged on using CloudBe...
I have static files located on Amazon S3, and am continually having issues with Amazon caching them. When I update/overwrite the static file, I'd love for it to automatically show the newest version rather than waiting... Any ideas? ...
I have a bit of code like so which works fine if the file in question doesn't already exist. if AWS::S3::S3Object.exists? file_name, bucket.name + path_to_images puts "file exists (deleting)" AWS::S3::S3Object.delete file_name, bucket.name + path_to_images, :force => true end AWS::S3::S3Object.store file_name, File.read(file_pa...
I'm trying to use S3 as an off site file location for a database backup. On my home dev machine this works just fine, I just do a dump out from mySQL and then <cffile action = "copy" source = "#backupPath##filename#" destination = "s3://myID:myKey@myBucket/#filename#"> and all is good. However, the production server at work is behind...
Does anyone know of any problems serving gzipped HTML pages using Amazon S3. I have the need to minimize the file size of our HTML files (ie serving up compressed HTML, CSS and javascript files) - but am concerned that either: Amazon S3 does not serve up gzipped files correctly to the browser that requests it. Or, Some browsers have tr...
We're planning to setup a server to record videos and save them using Amazon's S3 service. Subsequently we need to provide a mechanism to end users to view those videos online. Is it possible to store files on S3 in such a way that they are streamed to user's browsers, in a way similar to how video is visible on youtube? We haven't m...
I am right at the start of trying to write some PHP code to run on a Linux box on an EC2 server that will read files from my S3 bucket, zip them then write the zip file back to the bucket. I have instantly run in to problems with even creating a simple zip archive from some images on the local disk of the EC2 instance, I am using a scri...
I am looking at the readme and there isn't any instructions on how to install it locally on my ubuntu machine (curious, is it different on a mac os?) http://github.com/boto/boto/blob/master/README ...
I have a connection that works as I can list buckets, but having issues when trying to add a object. conn = S3Connection(awskey, awssecret) key = Key(mybucket) key.key = p.sku key.set_contents_from_filename(fullpathtofile) I get the error: 'attribute error: 'str' object has no attribute 'connection' the error is in the file: /us...
Hello all, I don't think I fully understand Amazon Web Services yet, which is why I'm asking this question. I want to know if AWS would be a nice host for a CakePHP application that of course runs off PHP, and MySQL? Would I have to change or add anything to my code if used a service like EC2? I also noticed that Amazon has it's own da...
I'm making a website where files are uploaded through the admin and this will then store them on Amazon S3. I'm using django-storages and boto for this, and it seems to be working just fine. Thing is, I'm used to use my easy_thumbnails (the new sorl.thumbnail) on the template side to create thumbnails on the fly. I prefer this approach,...
Is there a way to create the server side of something similar to S3, iDrive, Dropbox, etc in strictly PHP? The end goal would be to allow users to map a drive or folder to our servers using an app that already exists for one of those popular services. In other words, I don't really want to write the client on the OS side, but rather im...
I have a structure on amazon like this - (bucket name) MyImages --- (key) general ---- 1.jpg ---- 2.jpg I have created the key (general) by using S3 Firefox Organizer tool and set read permission for all. Now, by a java program when I am uploading the images inside this key, I want to set the permission of each object...
