Mount a bucket using S3FS doesn't work as non-root user - s3fs

Question

I'm trying to mount an Exoscale bucket to an Exoscale VM running Ubuntu 20.04 using s3fs as the ubuntu user created by default by Exoscale. After reading the s3fs README and a few online tutorials here what I have done.
# install s3fs
sudo apt-get install -y s3fs
# create a password file with the right permissions
echo API-KEY:API-SECRET > /home/ubuntu/.passwd-s3fs
chmod 600 /home/ubuntu/.passwd-s3fs
# mount the bucket
sudo mkdir /home/ubuntu/bucket
sudo s3fs test-bucket /home/ubuntu/bucket -o passwd_file=${HOME}/.passwd-s3fs -o url=https://sos-bg-sof-1.exo.io
The command doesn't output anything.
if I try to see the rights on the directory I get
$ ls -l
ls: cannot access 'bucket': Permission denied
total 0
d????????? ? ? ? ? ? bucket
If I try to run it with debug output enabled, I get
sudo s3fs test-bucket /home/ubuntu/bucket -o passwd_file=${HOME}/.passwd-s3fs -o url=https://sos-bg-sof-1.exo.io -o dbglevel=info -f -o curldbg

Which doesn't output any evident error.
Am I missing anything here? .
Doing the same as root works as expected. However, I'm planning to disable root access so I need to make it work as ubuntu.

Answer 1

To make it work, I had to add the following options:
sudo s3fs test-bucket /home/ubuntu/bucket -o passwd_file=${HOME}/.passwd-s3fs -o url=https://sos-bg-sof-1.exo.io -ouid=1000,gid=1000,allow_other,mp_umask=002
Hope this may help others.
