I've troubles about using amazon S3 destination option: I receive a mail with Could not run backup because the file could not be saved to the destination message.

On the destination panel the path is: https://XXXXXXXKEYXXXXXXXX@s3.amazonaws.com/mybackups.

It's a module issue or I've to better configure my Amazon S3 ACL?

Thank you.

I have no idea. I haven't used this feature much beyond testing that it works. I can't help you with configuring your ACL but maybe somebody else will have an idea.

The S3 destination works fine after update my application that manage my account and setting better the ACL.
Thank you ronan.

I received the same message ("user warning: S3::putObject(): [NoSuchBucket] The specified bucket does not exist in * sites/all/modules/backup_migrate/includes/S3.php on line 357."), and it turns out it was because my bucket didn't follow the rather stringent naming requirements, one of which is that bucket names be *lowercase*. Hope that helps someone.

That's the ticket (lowercase buckets)! Thanks, Rowan.

#4 is it, lowercase bucket names are required.
fixed:
• error trying to backup the database to amazon S3 : "Could not run backup because the file could not be saved to the destination."
• and in the logs: "user warning: S3::putObject(): [NoSuchBucket] The specified bucket does not exist in * sites/all/modules/backup_migrate/includes/S3.php on line 357."

Lowercase it is! That helped me, too. Thanks!
