Hello, after enabling and configuring ES to use s3 repository plugin when we restart each node we got a following error right after restarting nodes and only. When I enter the directory the file is missing. Els process is started with the same user dbolog. ```auto [2020-11-17T08:47:32,263][WARN][c.a.a.p.i.BasicProfileConfigFileLoader] [logstashatp3] Unable to load config file null java.security.AccessControlException: access denied ("java.io.FilePermission" "/home/dbolog/.aws/config" "read") at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(AccessControlContext.java:472) ~[?:?] at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(AccessController.java:895) ~[?:?] at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(SecurityManager.java:322) ~[?:?] at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkRead(SecurityManager.java:661) ~[?:?] at java.io.File.exists(File.java:815) ~[?:?] at com.amazonaws.profile.path.config.SharedConfigDefaultLocationProvider.getLocation(SharedConfigDefaultLocationProvider.java:36) ~[aws-java-sdk-core-1.11.749.jar:?] at com.amazonaws.profile.path.AwsProfileFileLocationProviderChain.getLocation(AwsProfileFileLocationProviderChain.java:41) ~[aws-java-sdk-core-1.11.749.jar:?] at com.amazonaws.auth.profile.internal.BasicProfileConfigFileLoader.getProfilesConfigFile(BasicProfileConfigFileLoader.java:69) [aws-java-sdk-core-1.11.749.jar:?] at com.amazonaws.auth.profile.internal.BasicProfileConfigFileLoader.getProfile(BasicProfileConfigFileLoader.java:55) [aws-java-sdk-core-1.11.749.jar:?] at com.amazonaws.retry.internal.RetryModeResolver.profile(RetryModeResolver.java:92) [aws-java-sdk-core-1.11.749.jar:?] at com.amazonaws.retry.internal.RetryModeResolver.resolveRetryMode(RetryModeResolver.java:83) [aws-java-sdk-core-1.11.749.jar:?] at com.amazonaws.retry.internal.RetryModeResolver.(RetryModeResolver.java:46) [aws-java-sdk-core-1.11.749.jar:?] at com.amazonaws.retry.RetryPolicy.(RetryPolicy.java:35) [aws-java-sdk-core-1.11.749.jar:?] at com.amazonaws.retry.PredefinedRetryPolicies.(PredefinedRetryPolicies.java:30) [aws-java-sdk-core-1.11.749.jar:?] at com.amazonaws.ClientConfiguration.(ClientConfiguration.java:89) [aws-java-sdk-core-1.11.749.jar:?] at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method) [?:?] at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:315) [?:?] at org.elasticsearch.repositories.s3.S3RepositoryPlugin.lambda$static$0(S3RepositoryPlugin.java:58) [repository-s3-7.9.2.jar:7.9.2] at java.security.AccessController.doPrivileged(Native Method) [?:?] at org.elasticsearch.repositories.s3.S3RepositoryPlugin.(S3RepositoryPlugin.java:52) [repository-s3-7.9.2.jar:7.9.2] at jdk.internal.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance0(Native Method) ~[?:?] at jdk.internal.reflect.NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(NativeConstructorAccessorImpl.java:62) ~[?:?] at jdk.internal.reflect.DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.newInstance(DelegatingConstructorAccessorImpl.java:45) ~[?:?] at java.lang.reflect.Constructor.newInstance(Constructor.java:490) ~[?:?] at org.elasticsearch.plugins.PluginsService.loadPlugin(PluginsService.java:693) [elasticsearch-7.9.2.jar:7.9.2] at org.elasticsearch.plugins.PluginsService.loadBundle(PluginsService.java:642) [elasticsearch-7.9.2.jar:7.9.2] at org.elasticsearch.plugins.PluginsService.loadBundles(PluginsService.java:473) [elasticsearch-7.9.2.jar:7.9.2] at org.elasticsearch.plugins.PluginsService.(PluginsService.java:165) [elasticsearch-7.9.2.jar:7.9.2] at org.elasticsearch.node.Node.(Node.java:328) [elasticsearch-7.9.2.jar:7.9.2] at org.elasticsearch.node.Node.(Node.java:277) [elasticsearch-7.9.2.jar:7.9.2] at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Bootstrap$5.(Bootstrap.java:227) [elasticsearch-7.9.2.jar:7.9.2] at org.elasticsearch.bootstrap.Bootstrap.setup(Bootstrap.java:227) [elasticsearch-7.9.2.jar:7.9.2] ``` ---

Did you define the S3 credentials in your configuration? I suspect that because no configuration has been found, the AWS SDK is trying to access a default folder. Could you share your `elasticsearch.yml` configuration?

This is in our elasticsearch.yml: ```auto # -------------------------------- S3 backup -------------------------------- s3.client.default.endpoint: " *****.net" s3.client.default.protocol: "https" ``` And in elasticsearch.keystore we add: ```auto s3.client.default.access_key: " ***************" s3.client.default.secret_key: " ****************************" ``` ---

When you installed the plugin, did you confirm the security policy changes? ```auto @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @ WARNING: plugin requires additional permissions @ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ * java.lang.RuntimePermission accessDeclaredMembers * java.lang.RuntimePermission getClassLoader * java.lang.reflect.ReflectPermission suppressAccessChecks * java.net.SocketPermission * connect,resolve * java.util.PropertyPermission es.allow_insecure_settings read,write See http://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/technotes/guides/security/permissions.html for descriptions of what these permissions allow and the associated risks. Continue with installation? [y/N]y ``` ---

Hi @vaclav1 this is a known issue and has been fixed in 7.10. It should just be cosmetic in nature and you can ignore the warning. See below fix > ---
