Errors::SignatureDoesNotMatch, AWS-SDK gem for S3 support on paperclip 3.0.1 and rails 3.2
amazon-s3, paperclip, ruby-1.9.3, ruby-on-rails-3.2
Solution
I had the same issue. It turned out I was using the correct access key id but my secret key was copied incorrectly.
Double checking my secret key and correcting it fixed it for me.
Problem
I'm migrating my app from Rails 3.0.9 to 3.2.3 and ruby 1.9.3. I was using paperclip(2.3.11) with aws-s3 gem to store my pictures. Now I want to use the last version of paperclip(3.0.1) and then I have to use aws-sdk gem. I've set my aws.yml file as: ``` development: &development bucket: bucket_name_for_dev access_key_id: ***** secret_access_key: ******* staging: <<: *development bucket: bucket_name_for_staging production: <<: *development bucket: bucket_name_for_prod ``` my model contains : ``` has_attached_file :picture, :styles => { :medium => "300x300>", :thumb => "50x50>" }, :default_url => 'picture_missing.png', :storage => :s3, :bucket => "bucket_name_for_dev", :s3_credentials => Rails.root.join("config/aws.yml"), :path => "/presentation_pictures/:id/:style/:filename", :url => ":s3_eu_url" attr_accessible :picture attr_accessor :picture_url ``` When trying to upload a file, I get the error: `AWS::S3::Errors::SignatureDoesNotMatch` `The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your key and signing method.` I verified that my keys are accessible and set to the right value. Here is also what I get from console: ``` [paperclip] Saving attachments. [paperclip] saving /presentation_pictures/43/original/Image_1.png [AWS S3 200 0.813272 0 retries] put_object(:acl=>:public_read,:bucket_name=>"*******_dev",:content_type=>"image/png",:data=>#<Paperclip::UploadedFileAdapter:0x2e144b4 @target=#<ActionDispatch::Http::UploadedFile:0x2dbb1fc @original_filename="Image 1.png", @content_type="image/png", @headers="Content-Disposition: form-data; name=\"presentation_picture[picture]\"; filename=\"Image 1.png\"\r\nContent-Type: image/png\r\n", @tempfile=#<File:/var/folders/tb/tbmv4LE9EwGNPr1QqU2S0E+++TI/-Tmp-/RackMultipart20120407-33502-1gajfe9>>, @tempfile=#<File:/var/folders/tb/tbmv4LE9EwGNPr1QqU2S0E+++TI/-Tmp-/Image 1.png20120407-33502-an4dcy>>,:key=>"presentation_pictures/43/original/Image_1.png") ``` Do you have any idea from where could come this problem? Thx
