Set up BackBlaze S3 with BunnyCDN

Wiki Sysadmins

I need some help. I went down the rabbit hole (pardon the bunny pun) for the last two days, trying to get backups and images to go to Backblaze.

I used this forum post and others to try and set it up. Now I keep getting and error message on the backups (though still have not been able to get the uploads to work but first things first with the backups)

I have setup buckets in Backblaze, keys and the pull zones.

These are the settings in All Site Settings for S3

This is my app.yml - the second section that is commented out, I was playing around with yesterday but it was causing Discourse to hang at the loading screen.

The image displays multiple lines of redacted configuration settings for a cloud storage service, with various fields related to S3 access, backups, and uploads. (Captioned by AI)

When I run backups I get this screen, I guess because I have not got the uploads part working. It may be irrelevant but thought I should add it.

The image is a popup message asking if the user wants to start a database backup, noting that it will not include file uploads and no image uploads are included, with a guide available for full backups. (Captioned by AI)

This is the error log on the backup

I should also mention I ran the Rake tasks using

rake uploads:migrate_to_s3
rake posts:rebake

My brain is doing loops after two days of trying to get it to work. Can anyone help me figure out where I am going wrong? I hope I have included everything needed to troubleshoot. :tired_face:
