Not able to write file in amazon s3 with django

Question

I have given 'everyone' as all permissions in AWS s3 bucket permissions.

Ia m using django. I am able to read the files but i am not able to write it.

I am trying this

>>> print default_storage.connection
S3Connection:s3.amazonaws.com
>>> from django.core.files.base import ContentFile
>>> from django.core.cache import cache

>>> default_storage.exists('testkey')
True



>>> file = default_storage.open('storage_test', 'w')
>>> file.write('storage contents')
Traceback (most recent call last):


S3ResponseError: S3ResponseError: 403 Forbidden
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Error><Code>AccessDenied</Code><Message>Access Denied</Message><RequestId>FDD54

I have added this in settings

DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'storages.backends.s3boto.S3BotoStorage'
AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID='XXXXXXXXXXXXXXA'
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY='XXXXXXX'
AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME='testbucket'

I am also confused how to django s3 knows which user to use from s3 . i am confused. The access key is for the user_123 which i created but in permission i am not able to see that user in aws s3 dropdown

Would this help? http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10854095/boto-exception-s3responseerror-s3responseerror-403-forbidden — karthikr, Jun 23 '13 at 15:05

This is determined strictly by the Accesskey and secret key you placed in your config.

Did you give user_123 access to S3? In the IAM console, you need to give user_123 access to the bucket like this:

{
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": "s3:*",
      "Resource": ["arn:aws:s3:::testbucket/*", "arn:aws:s3:::testbucket"]
    }
  ]
}

Don't forget to remove 'Everyone's permission to the bucket

but where is `user_123` written in that policy – user1958218 Jun 24 '13 at 23:31
The policy is attached to user_123. In the IAM console, select users->user_123->Permissions tab->"Attack User Policy" and paste the above policy in. It will apply to user_123 by virtue of being attached to user_123 – prestomation Jun 25 '13 at 00:09
