Connect Amazon S3 (old vs new node)

Hi,
I have a problem with the connection to amazon s3.

Setting up the proxy manually:

if I work with the old node (Amazon s3 connection (legacy) ), it works and I can also select directories.

If i use the two new connection nodes, the authentication part works, while the connection part doesn’t (it seems that the connection part doesn’t use the manual proxy setting, and I don’t know how to setting this, I can’t find settings in advanced).

Inside the setting is the same old and new.

This is the error:
ERROR Amazon S3 Connector x:xx Execute failed: Unable to execute HTTP request: Connect to s3.xx-xxxx-x.amazonaws.com:xxxx [s3.xx-xxxxxxxx-x.amazonaws.com/xx.xx.xxx.xx] failed: Connect timed out
WARN List Files/Folders x:xx Please specify a folder

Can you help me?
thanks !!

Hi @And -

Thanks for reporting the problem. I’ve asked internally for help from someone a bit more familiar with DBs and proxy connections.

Thanks ScottF,
I’m waiting for news!!!

Hi @And,

thanks for running tests with multiple setups. It is indeed very interesting that the legacy connection works. To be sure that this is indeed a proxy issue, is there a way for you to test the connection without a proxy?
I was not able to find any issues with the S3 Connector in combination with proxies. Still, could you confirm which version of KNIME you’re using? Should you be on an older version, could you test with a current version found here?

Another thing to try is to set up the proxy in Windows instead of KNIME and set the proxy configuration to “Native”.

Kind regards
Marvin

Hi @salvatorigio,

thanks for following up and running further tests.
I’m afraid this looks to be a niche issue on a network level. It isn’t obvious to me why this would only impact the newer nodes, but this would require a more detailed investigation. Again, we are happy to put you in contact with partners of ours should you want further assistance debugging.

Kind regards
Marvin
