Hi I get the following error when trying to connect into my S3 bucket. in eu-west2 region (london). Can you advise?

Hi,

Could you try setting the region explicitly in the target string? For example, in the connector:

CREATE CONNECTOR kognitioeu
SOURCE s3
TARGET 'accesskey AGFFGADHFHE8EXAMPLE
secretkey "seDLghYES/tRIu67g/fdsGHFWHGEXAMPLEKEY"
bucket Kognitio-eu
proxy "proxy:8080" region eu-west-2'

If you don't specify the region, the connector will try connecting with AWS signature version 2, which some regions don't support. The region can also be specified in the target string of the external table.

Regards,
Mike
