I am new to Logstash. I am using version 1:5.0.0-1 on a Amazon Linux EC2 instance and trying to upload a file to S3 using the example config:

input {  
file {  
path =\> "/tmp/log.txt"  
start\_position =\> "beginning"  
}  
}  
output {  
s3 {  
access\_key\_id =\> "my\_secret\_key"  
secret\_access\_key =\> "my\_secret\_access\_key"  
region =\> "ap-southeast-2"  
bucket =\> "my\_bucket"  
size\_file =\> "2048"  
time\_file =\> "1"  
server\_side\_encryption =\> "true"  
canned\_acl =\> "public\_read\_write"  
}  
}

I keep getting the below error:

I can see that the logstash-programmatic-access-test-object-1478285125 file is being created in /tmp/logstash.

I can successfully run "aws s3 ls s3://my\_bucket\_name" or "aws s3 cp testfile s3://my\_bucket\_name --sse" commands without any issues. Any idea of what the error might mean or what I could try to resolve it?

Thanks
