My website hosted Amazon S3 downloads index.html though my content-type is type/html

Similar Question: Amazon S3 downloads index.html instead of serving

I am trying to upload a directory to my S3, when I upload manually I can see as static web page. But when I upload using curl, the index.html is getting downloaded.

When I curl my request curl -I https://s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/bucket_name/index.html, I can see

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
x-amz-id-2: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
x-amz-request-id: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

ETag: "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Type: text/html
Content-Length: 48210
Server: AmazonS3

But still the index.html is downloading.

If you click on the file on AWS S3 console and go to Properties tab details of the file, you will see Metadata section

Remove the existing "Content-Type" metadata entry and retype it as "text/html"

If you have configured your S3 as a static web site hosting, now the file will be displayed with its HTML content instead of forcing the browser to download it

You must configure the relevant bucket for website hosting:

  1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console and open the Amazon S3 console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/s3/.

  2. In the list, choose the bucket that you want to use for your hosted website.

  3. Choose the Properties tab.

  4. Choose Static website hosting, and then choose Use this bucket to host a website.

  5. You are prompted to provide the index document and any optional error documents and redirection rules that are needed.

For information about what an index document is, see Configuring Index Document Support.
