500 Internal Server Error - Aws::S3::Errors::AccessDenied - CarrierWave

Question

I am trying to upload images to S3 via CarrierWave but keep getting a 500 Internal Server Error - Aws::S3::Errors::AccessDenied. I am using the ruby gem CarrierWave to configure AWS and dotenv-rails to call and hide my credentials in a .env file. It seems my code is working properly but I am being denied permission to my bucket. This is my first time trying to integrate AWS into a project so my configuration might be off on that end. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have already tried resetting my access keys and making sure my region was set properly. I even changed the region and received an error which prompted me to change it back to the correct region: "us-west-1". I made sure that dotenv-rails was working correctly by making sure I could fetch my credentials via the rails console. I also used 'byebug' to set a break point in my update action in my portfolio controller to manually enter the update code myself. I can see the new image I am attempting to update my portfolio item with but it always rollsback.

portfolios_controller.rb:

class PortfoliosController < ApplicationController
    before_action :set_portfolio, only: [:show, :edit, :update, :destroy]

    layout "portfolio"

    access all: [:show, :index, :javascript], user: {except: [:destroy, :new, :create, :update, :edit, :sort]}, site_admin: :all

    def index
        @portfolio_items = Portfolio.by_position
    end

  def sort
    params[:order].each do |key, value|
      Portfolio.find(value[:id]).update(position: value[:position])
    end

    render :index
  end

    def javascript
        @javascript_portfolio_items = Portfolio.javascript
    end

    def new
        @portfolio_item = Portfolio.new
        3.times { @portfolio_item.technologies.build }
    end

    def show
    end

    def create
    @portfolio_item = Portfolio.new(portfolio_params)

    respond_to do |format|

        format.html { redirect_to portfolios_path, notice: 'Portfolio item was successfully created.' }
      else
        format.html { render :new }

    end
    end

    end

                else

Aws::S3::Errors::AccessDenied (Access Denied):

app/controllers/portfolios_controller.rb:49:in `block in update'
app/controllers/portfolios_controller.rb:48:in `update'

I expected this to work and be able to access the AWS resource but maybe there is some configuration I need to set for my bucket? The AWS documentation has been difficult to digest so far. I could use the help please and thank you.
