Specifying an S3 bucket when deploying a cloudformation template

I'm trying to deploy a cloudformation template using a command that looks as follows:

aws cloudformation deploy \
        --stack-name stackname \
        --template-file folder/file.yaml \
        --s3-bucket bucketname \
        --s3-prefix prefix

The error that I receive is:

An error occurred (ValidationError) when calling the CreateChangeSet operation:
S3 error: The bucket you are attempting to access must be addressed using the specified endpoint. Please send all future requests to this endpoint.
For more information check http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/ErrorResponses.html

I have checked the link to try and understand what is being asked of me, but it seems to relate to directly using S3, and not using S3 via CloudFormation.

I can't determine a way to do what it is asking using the available parameters of aws cloudformation

aws cloudformation deploy --stack-name myteststack --template-file folder/file.yaml --s3-bucket bucketname --s3-prefix prefix --region us-east-1

You may replace the parameter and try this. You need not to pass the region for s3 bucket nor endpoint is required. Yes, if the Bucket and Cloudformation are in a different region in such cases you may face an issue. But I'm sure it will be access denied issue, not something that you have mentioned here.

The template file that defines a stack must be in an Amazon S3 bucket that is in the same region as the AWS CloudFormation stack being created.
