Digital Ocean Spaces (S3) "unable to sign request without credentials set"

OK. I thought this was a small breakthrough here. I finally figured out what this issue was…

“did not find expected key while parsing a block mapping at line 106 column3”

When looking through a few threads, I saw this…

I pulled mine up and what do you know, spaces.

I’m sure I put them in there thinking nothing of it. I removed them. I think it was mainly the one before the “hooks:” that it was referring to.

It rebuilt fine. Thanks @RGJ

However, it still doesn’t like something.

I’m still not seeing my item count rise in Spaces, so it doesn’t appear to be uploading the /uploads files to ‘S3’ yet. This was something that had been perplexing me, so I’m glad that’s resolved. But I’m back to the loading screen.

Also, with that enabled, I just get the loading screen.

Commented it back out…

Rebuilt again. Same.

Commented out the Spaces S3 settings.

Rebuilt again.

Working

  • Forum loading
  • Images loading
    • New ones using Spaces - Not CDN
    • Old ones using local storage

Not Working

  • Not uploading files to Spaces
  • Not using CDN link for image loading
  • If the DISCOURSE_S3 and after_assets_precompile are not commented out, the forum just hangs on loading in a browser

Out of ideas. Going in circles.

I’ll have to let this sit for a while. At least it will keep space from being an issue anymore since new uploads and backups are going to Spaces now.
