Description

I wanted to try out stash followed the instructions here: https://docs.ovh.com/ca/en/kubernetes/backing-up-volumes-using-stash/
Getting the credentials via openstack ec2 credentials create worked fine - but the credentials won't work. aws cli: SignatureDoesNotMatch

Interestingly if I rename the profile [profile default] to for example [profile ovh], the error changes to:

aws --profile ovh s3 mb s3://s3-stash
make_bucket failed: s3://s3-stash An error occurred (InternalError) when calling the CreateBucket operation (reached max retries: 4): unexpected status code 500

I do believe that there cannot be a profile default and the default config would be under [default] and not [profile default] but I am not sure about that :]

Research direction

Start with the Stash backup guide linked in the report and compare its credential and AWS CLI configuration instructions with the shown openstack ec2 credentials create and aws s3 mb commands. Confirm the correct profile configuration and document or test the steps until bucket creation succeeds without SignatureDoesNotMatch or the reported 500 error.
