python manage.py collectstatic : boto.exception.S3ResponseError: 400 Bad Request

Question

Hello all,

I want to use a S3 bucket in Franckfurt or in London(eu-west-2).

I have an existing bucket in Oregon and create another in ireland. The django command "python manage.py collectstatic" work well. Collectstatic comes from Django==1.10.5 (January 4, 2017) running on "windows 10" python 2.7

But when executing "python manage.py collectstatic" on a London or Frankfurt S3 bucket, i got the error :

boto.exception.S3ResponseError: S3ResponseError: 400 Bad Request.

refering to :

• Using boto for AWS S3 Buckets for Signature V4
• boto S3ResponseError: 400 Bad Request

So i did the followings :

• I create a ~.boto file and add 1 line: [s3] use-sigv4 = True.....failed
• I create a ~.boto\config file. Add 1 line: [s3] use-sigv4 = True.....failed
• I modified ~.aws\config file with region = eu-west-2...failed

Any suggestion ?

Thank you
