I'm trying to setup Amazon Web Service storage for EasyDiscuss. The configuration page is asking me to enter a Access Key ID and a Secret Key. As far as I know, AWS no longer supports a Secret Key; at least I don't see one in my account. Is this a known issue, or should I be doing something else?

I get an error message when I try to test the link to my CRON job, and it seems to be related to AWS. See attached image.
Hello,

Can you please edit your post above and also include the AWS access so that we can set this up for you?

Sorry for the delay in response. What information do you need to access my AWS account?

Hey there,

As far as I know, AWS no longer supports a Secret Key; at least I don't see one in my account. Is this a known issue, or should I be doing something else?

The reason why we need your AWS access is because it should have provide the Secret key from the AWS Credentails page, unless they update their API again so we would like to see why you can't see the secret key from your account.

By the way, I was unable to access your Joomla backend, please advise.

Ok, I was able to recreate my S3 secret key, and updated the settings in EasyDiscuss. Now I get the following error (see image). Does it take a while for the S3 settings to take effect?

Never mind; I finally got it to work! Forgot to turn on the Amazon S3 service. Thanks for your help.
