The provisioning script return error messages

[aec2016]

Hi all,

When I followed the guide, all things go smooth until the provisioning script, which gives the following error output:

➜ sudo -u www-data php files/converter/librelambda/cli/provision.php \
➜ --keyid=AKI****************4 \
➜ --secret=kI3m8d*******************Z \
➜ --region=cn-north-1 \
➜ --set-config

And Moodle version is 3.7.3, with the latest librelambda version published on official Moodle website. Also I am using AWS Region cn-north-1(Beijing).

It seems that the S3 bucket hasn't been created? Any help will be appreciated!

Hi @aec2016 ,
From the output of this script I can see the input bucket has not been created. And we know that the provisioning script does indeed work.
The only suggestions I have for you are:

• Check that the user associated with the API key and secret has admin privileges in your AWS account
• I'd try setting up the stack in another AWS region. I know there are some differences with the AWS China regions and this could be the reason.
• Finally, I have seen before that VPN's and organisation networks can block communication from the script to the AWS API. I'd check that you can use the regular AWS CLI tool to create a test S3 bucket to try and rule out network filtering issues.

Cheers,
Matt P

Hi @mattporritt ，
Thanks a lot for your suggestions. I moved the test enviroment to AWS China since my local test network does not have an external IP, which might cause potiential problems as you mentioned in the third suggestions.

This time I am able to create a S3 resouce bucket in AWS China regions using provision script. However, the corresponding configurations were not automatically filled in with the parameter "--set-config" in the plugin setting page. I tried to fill in the settings page manually with created S3 bucket name. Then I ran the test.php in cli to see if the conversion works, I got the following error output:

➜ sudo -u www-data php files/converter/librelambda/cli/test.php \
--keyid=AKIAQUBZ******B3IMG2 \
--secret=qVVk****IdFSJ/Z2****GanQ/lXdg3I/Az****GC \
--region=cn-north-1 \
--input-bucket=df4fbaec5cdee176af5986edb78a54ce-input \
--output-bucket=df4fbaec5cdee176af5986edb78a54ce-output \
--file='/var/www/html/moodle2019/files/converter/librelambda/tests/fixtures/testsubmission.odt'
== Uploading test file ==
!!! error/1: The input bucket does not exist. !!!

So I tried to run provision script again:

sudo -u www-data php files/converter/librelambda/cli/provision.php \
--keyid=AKIAQUBZ******B3IMG2 \
--secret=qVVk****IdFSJ/Z2****GanQ/lXdg3I/Az****GC \
--region=cn-north-1 \
--set-config
== Creating resource S3 Bucket ==
!!! error/1: Bucket exists !!!

It says the Bucket already exists. The created S3 bucket content is only two zip files as following:

I am not sure if the provision.php script works fine or just partly done? Many thanks for your help in advance!
