AWS S3 CLI - Could not connect to the endpoint URL

Question

aws s3 ls  Could not connect to the endpoint URL   https   s3 us-east-1a amazonaws com     What could be the problem

User · Accepted Answer

You probably have something wrong in your default profile for the default region.

Check your file at ~/.aws/config, you have something like

[default]
region=us-east-1a
...

Fix the region to region=us-east-1 and then the command will work correctly

Probably  there is something wrong with the default region while configuring aws  In your case  the URL says  https   s3 us-east-1a amazonaws com    In your command prompt    aws configure  enter your keys  Now fix your region from us-east-1a to us-east-1   Kindly check the syntax according to the CLI you are using  This will be helpful

The solution to my problem was to run      sudo aws configure  Enter your credentials and then run      sudo aws s3 ls  A different solution was to make sure that the region in the  aws config file is the same as the endpoints

On Windows run the aws configure command again and reset region without the letter for example if your region is us-east-1a you need to change it to us-east-1 in order for it to work

In case it is not working in your default region  try providing a region close to you  This worked for me     PS C  Users shrig gt  aws  configure    AWS Access Key ID                  C    strong text      AWS Secret Access Key                  WD      Default region name  us-east1   ap-south-1    Default output format  text

Everyone has different defaults  and interestingly it will change after time  As an example  first I was on global  and then after 15 minutes it shows Ohio  which is us-east-2    The best approach is to check it during your work -- in console of your AWS working area  just set it on the right above side near your name on top bar  check your region name and click on the down arrow to see your region   In AWS CLI type aws configure or aws2 configure  give your access and secret id  then during default region  write your region and press Enter   You will definitely get access to specific region set and it will work

If none of solutions given above works also check your permissions and firewall settings  In my case adding proxy environment variables did the job    For Linux or mac    export HTTP PROXY http    lt YOUR PROXY IP gt   lt PORT gt     export HTTPS PROXY http    lt YOUR PROXY IP gt   lt PORT gt   For Windows  set HTTP PROXY http    lt YOUR PROXY IP gt   lt PORT gt   set HTTPS PROXY http    lt YOUR PROXY IP gt   lt PORT gt

You should specify the region in your CLI script  rather than rely on default region specified using aws configure  as the current most popular answer asserts   Another answer alluded to that  but the syntax is wrong if you re using CLI via AWS Tools for Powershell   This example forces region to us-west-2  Northern California   PowerShell syntax   aws s3 ls --region us-west-2

Some AWS services are just available in specific regions that do not match your actual region  If this is the case you can override the standard setting by adding the region to your actual cli command   This might be a handy solution for people that do not want to change their default region in the config file  IF your general config file is not set  Please check the suggestions above   In this example the region is forced to eu-west-1  e g  Ireland    aws s3 ls --region eu-west-1   Tested and used with aws workmail to delete users   aws workmail delete-user --region eu-west-1 --organization-id  org-id  --user-id  user-id    I derived the idea from this thread and it works perfect for me - so I wanted to share it  Hope it helps

Assuming that your profile in   aws config is using the region  instead of AZ as per your original question   the other cause is your client s inability to connect to s3 us-east-1 amazonaws com  In my case  I was unable to resolve that DNS name due to an error in my network configuration  Fixing the DNS issue solved my problem

Check the  aws directory under home directory  Windows  C  Users lt home-name gt  aws Linux     aws  Under this directory  you will find the config as well as credentials file  It will have the information from the aws configure that you may have run before  IF not  then  Run aws configure Enter the access key -  secret key - enter secret key region -  ap-southeast-1 or us-east-1 or any other regions  format -  json or leave it blank  it will pick up default values you may simply hit enter   From the Step 2  you should see the config file  open it  it should have the region  Please ensure there is region specified   You may now run the following command to list the buckets aws s3 ls It should work fine
