The attachments are around 90 GB. I used the same command on the avatars and it worked flawlessly (they're only 5 GB): Code: s3cmd put * s3://yourfolder --acl-public --recursive I checked the "commonly found errors" FAQ on their GitHub and it gave me this: Code: Problem: ParseError: syntax error: line 1, column 0 Example: Problem: ParseError: no element found: line 1, column 0 S3cmd: 1.1.0-beta3 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/s3cmd", line 1800, in <module> main() File "/usr/bin/s3cmd", line 1741, in main cmd_func(args) File "/usr/bin/s3cmd", line 462, in cmd_object_del subcmd_object_del_uri(uri_str) File "/usr/bin/s3cmd", line 488, in subcmd_object_del_uri response = s3.object_delete(S3Uri(item['object_uri_str'])) File "/usr/share/s3cmd/S3/S3.py", line 403, in object_delete response = self.send_request(request) File "/usr/share/s3cmd/S3/S3.py", line 613, in send_request e = S3Error(response) File "/usr/share/s3cmd/S3/Exceptions.py", line 48, in __init__ tree = getTreeFromXml(response["data"]) File "/usr/share/s3cmd/S3/Utils.py", line 69, in getTreeFromXml tree = ET.fromstring(xml) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 1301, in XML return parser.close() File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 1654, in close self._raiseerror(v) File "/usr/lib/python2.7/xml/etree/ElementTree.py", line 1506, in _raiseerror raise err ParseError: no element found: line 1, column 0 Solution: I haven't been here in a while solving most issues successfully myself but I'm totally lost on this one. The only thing I can think of is the fact that I lazily used the DigitalOcean Spaces GUI to move the avatar folder across recursively (which is still ongoing, and takes ages, my mistake should've used CLI) which is interfering with the main attachments transfer. Does anyone have any idea? Thanks everyone!
is that s3cmd version ? that is ancient as s3cmd 2.1+ is latest Tried using official Amazon aws CLI tool instead of s3cmd ? I have experimental aws CLI tool installer and profile configuration at https://awscli-get.centminmod.com/ which is mentioned in 12th post of thread Amazon AWS - How many folks use Amazon S3 or S3 compatible Object Storage?.
