Hi,

I have a need to access the S3 using ProfileFile Credentials ( not Instance IAM , But based on Profile Files)

Is there anyway i can make this happen

I try to put in the Advanced propertes of S3 with the following

fs.s3a.aws.credentials.provider = com.amazonaws.auth.DefaultAWSCredentialsProviderChain

but the log shows the following

Caused by: com.google.common.util.concurrent.UncheckedExecutionException: java.lang.IllegalStateException: com.amazonaws.auth.DefaultAWSCredentialsProviderChain

What does this mean ?

Version : Dremio 4.0.1  
OS : Linux

Verified that .aws/credentials is correctly populated.

Regards  
Sathish

@Sathish_Senathi

Is your S3 set this way?

[https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-php/v3/developer-guide/guide\_credentials\_profiles.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/sdk-for-php/v3/developer-guide/guide_credentials_profiles.html)

Are you unable to add the access key and secret key directly to the S3 source?

Thanks

No, I don’t have those as the profile is refreshed by external process.

No I can’t as it has session token , the setup is the profile has accesskey , secret key and token usually valid for 1 hr and gets refreshed by some other process.

This is our test environment setup. I couldnt get other options
