SSLHandshakeException happens during file upload to AWS S3 via Alpakka - scala

Question

I'm trying to setup an Alpakka S3 for files upload purpose. Here is my configs:
alpakka s3 dependency:
...
"com.lightbend.akka" %% "akka-stream-alpakka-s3" % "0.20"
...
Here is application.conf:
akka.stream.alpakka.s3 {
buffer = "memory"
proxy {
host = ""
port = 8000
secure = true
}
aws {
credentials {
provider = default
}
}
path-style-access = false
list-bucket-api-version = 2
}
File upload code example:
private val awsCredentials = new BasicAWSCredentials("my_key", "my_secret_key")
private val awsCredentialsProvider = new AWSStaticCredentialsProvider(awsCredentials)
private val regionProvider = new AwsRegionProvider { def getRegion: String = "us-east-1" }
private val settings = new S3Settings(MemoryBufferType, None, awsCredentialsProvider, regionProvider, false, None, ListBucketVersion2)
private val s3Client = new S3Client(settings)(system, materializer)
val fileSource = Source.fromFuture(ByteString("ololo blabla bla"))
val fileName = UUID.randomUUID().toString
val s3Sink: Sink[ByteString, Future[MultipartUploadResult]] = s3Client.multipartUpload("my_basket", fileName)
fileSource.runWith(s3Sink)
.map {
result => println(s"${result.location}")
} recover {
case ex: Exception => println(s"$ex")
}
When I run this code I get:
javax.net.ssl.SSLHandshakeException: General SSLEngine problem
What can be a reason?

Answer 1

The certificate problem arises for bucket names containing dots.
You may switch to
akka.stream.alpakka.s3.path-style-access = true to get rid of this.
We're considering making it the default: https://github.com/akka/alpakka/issues/1152
