Well, I answered a couple of my own questions, but it’s still not working.

I figured out that by using the Java API, or any other API it’s a lot easier to get and set the ACL. I am now able to do that, so I got my owner ID.

My current ACL looks like this in Java:

AccessControlList [owner=S3Owner [name=MY-OWNER-ID,id=MY-OWNER-ID], grants=[Grant [grantee=GroupGrantee [http://acs.amazonaws.com/groups/global/AllUsers], permission=READ], Grant [grantee=com.amazonaws.services.s3.model.CanonicalGrantee@e3da3b58, permission=FULL_CONTROL]]]

I granted myself full access and “AllUsers” read. However when I upload a new file using either the java api or s3cmd, it still is not readable in the browser :(

Any ideas on why it is not working? Thanks again!

According to support, granting READ permission to AllUsers on a bucket just means they can list the bucket contents…

I don’t understand why there is not a ‘read any object’ permission on a bucket or a directory inside a bucket? Can anyone enlighten me? Seems like such a common use case.

Thanks!

Using the following command I can mount a bucket on AMAZON_S3 so that any file placed there is then publicly accessible. I copy any file in

s3fs fcdn /var/www/fcdn -ourl=https://s3.us-east-2.amazonaws.com -o default_acl=public -ononempty

All subsequent copies to /var/www/fcdn immeditely appear on AMAZON_S3 and are always publicly readable. No issues.

However, when I mount to DOSpaces with
s3fs fcn /var/www/fivecent/image -ourl=https://nyc3.digitaloceanspaces.com -o defaultacl=public

A subsequent copy of a file to image folder or per say to fcdn folder simply fails with
cp zimage/*.png image/
cp: cannot create regular file ‘image/no_image.png’: Input/output error
cp: cannot create regular file 'image/placeholder.png’: Input/output error

Apparently there is a bug in the S3 API at DO. Hope someone looks into it.

Regards.
