Amazon S3 direct upload: CORS error

I'm unable to do a direct upload (javascript XHR) on my S3 bucket, because of CORS blocking system. I'm using PHP to generate direct a upload link, with an upload policy and S3 signature:

{"key": "501/source/${filename}", "AWSAccessKeyId": "AKIAIIG**********", "acl": "private","policy": "ey JleHBpcmF0aW***************", "signature": "j2UnJRfj+uC+FazEF+wPnuJpdcs=", "success_action_status": "201"}

But when I try to upload a file to generated link, I get following error from Firefox:

Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://my.bucket.s3.amazonaws.com. This can be fixed by moving the resource to the same domain or enabling CORS.

My bucket is correctly configured with a CORS policy to allow POST from everywhere:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<CORSConfiguration xmlns="http://s3.amazonaws.com/doc/2006-03-01/">
    <CORSRule>
        <AllowedOrigin>*</AllowedOrigin>
        <AllowedMethod>GET</AllowedMethod>
        <AllowedMethod>POST</AllowedMethod>
        <AllowedMethod>PUT</AllowedMethod>
        <AllowedMethod>DELETE</AllowedMethod>
        <AllowedMethod>HEAD</AllowedMethod>
        <MaxAgeSeconds>3000</MaxAgeSeconds>
        <AllowedHeader>*</AllowedHeader>
    </CORSRule>
</CORSConfiguration>

What more should I do?

Here is the PHP code I use to generate the policy & S3 signature :

$key = '42/source/';
$policy = json_encode(array(
    'expiration' => date('Y-m-d\TG:i:s\Z', strtotime('+6 hours')),
    'conditions' => array(
        array('bucket' => 'my.bucket'),
        array('acl' => 'private'),
        array('starts-with', '$key', $key),
        array('success_action_status' => '201')
    )
));
$policy = base64_encode($policy);
$signature = base64_encode(hash_hmac('sha1', $policy, 'G3wzaTNwnQC2mQB3****************', true));
return array(
    'key' => $key.'${filename}',
    'AWSAccessKeyId' => 'AKIAIIG**********',
    'acl' => 'private',
    'policy' => $policy,
    'signature' => $signature,
    'success_action_status' => '201'
);

I then use this array of params in my JavaScript fileupload() script to direct upload to Amazon S3 (XHR request).

Thanks for your help, Philippe S.

If anyone is stuck... NEVER use a dot "." in your bucket name. It's causing some SSL certificate troubles, as a new sub domain.

Eg: you named your bucket "my.bucket", then it will be understood as "my" subdomain of "bucket".

Just use "-" or "_" instead of the dot.
