Amazon AWS CloudFront claims no bucket

Question

I am trying to configure CloudFront to work with images, but access to it currently does not work and returns the error "The specified bucket does not exist."

<Error> <Code>NoSuchBucket</Code> <Message>The specified bucket does not exist</Message> <BucketName>someBucketName</BucketName> <RequestId>irrelevant</RequestId> <HostId> irrelevant </HostId> </Error> 

CloudFront requires that you use the domain to host, and not the URL as the base. This domain is .s3.amazonaws.com, which should be equivalent to s3.amazonaws.com/bucketName.

However, I can access the content through the URL:

https://s3.amazonaws.com/someBucketName/image.jpg

but not through

https://someBucketName.s3.amazonaws.com/image.jpg

which returns the same error. Any idea why this is happening? Is there something I need to do to make it an accessible subdomain? The same thing happens with https and http.

Answer 1

The problem was that AWS does not like capital letters. The presence of a bucket with capital letters in it will not be available from the subdomain, because the case is lost.
