S3fs can't access bucket permission denied

rated 0 times [ 6] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 7365 / 3 Years ago, fri, october 8, 2021, 7:35:18

I have installed s3fs and made a bucket with aws S3. I am able to write to it. But when I upload a file to the bucket and try reading it I get the following error.

You do not have the permissions necessary to open the file.

I've tried chmod 777 and I don't have permissions, I've tried sudo and I still don't have permissions.

I mount my drive by typing the following line:

s3fs babylon ~/MyMount -o passwd_file=~/.passwd-s3fs

How can I get permissions to access my files? Looking at them with ls -l I see the following:

~/MyMount$ ls -l

Since I found a fix for this I feel obligated to share it sense I asked for help.

What worked for me was fixing my permission immediately via the mount command like so:

s3fs babylon ~/MyMount -o passwd_file=~/.passwd-s3fs -o umask=0000

Umask works like a subtractor so with all 0s it sets things to 777. When I open my bucket via a script I made I now see the following:

-rwxrwxrwx 1 kaz  kaz       0 Mar 26 03:11 drfg.txt

-rwxrwxrwx 1 kaz  root   2272 Mar 26 19:48 lab8.cpp

-rwxrwxrwx 1 kaz  kaz      16 Mar 24 22:44 nextday.txt

-rwxrwxrwx 1 kaz  root 814493 Mar 26 19:48 Refactoring - A good example.pdf

-rwxrwxrwx 1 root root 522010 Mar 26 20:06 revy_3.jpg

-rwxrwxrwx 1 kaz  root    586 Mar 26 19:49 sample.c

-rwxrwxrwx 1 kaz  kaz       6 Mar 26 01:29 temp.txt

I hope that this helps anyone struggling with s3fs.
