I was simply following the "get started" tutorial here



But I failed at "Step 4 Add a Bucket Policy to Allow Public Reads". It always complains "access denied" with a red error icon.



I am not able to set it via command line either. Here is the command I use:




aws s3api put-bucket-policy --bucket bucket-name --policy
file://bucket-policy.json




Here is the error I got:




An error occurred (AccessDenied) when calling the PutBucketPolicy
operation: Access Denied

  • the policy u attached just provides a read access! are you doing anything other then reading from your bucket ?

  • can paste the policy that you are setting here. also, can you make sure if u have replaced [YOUR_BUCKET_NAME] in arn:aws:s3:::[YOUR_BUCKET_NAME] with the correct bucket name ?

The issue was, you have to uncheck the boxes under permissions -> public access settings. Amazon failed to mention this in their tutorial. Bad tutorial.
