unable to access default bucket when running from CF 1.2 product tile about cf-riak-cs-release HOT 4 CLOSED

Hey Chad,

I reproduced your problem using Transmit; I saw exactly the same errors you described. I was however able to use the riak service successfully through the fog gem.

Can you try setting your test app's VCAP_SERVICES environment variable locally and running this script?

#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'json'
require 'fog'

services = JSON.parse(ENV['VCAP_SERVICES'])
riak_creds = services.fetch('p-riakcs').first.fetch('credentials')
uri = riak_creds.fetch('uri')
id = riak_creds.fetch('access_key_id')
secret = riak_creds.fetch('secret_access_key')
host = uri.split("@").last
bucket_name = host.split("/").last

# in case your server is using self-signed SSL certs
Excon.defaults[:ssl_verify_peer] = false

client = Fog::Storage.new(
  host: host,
  aws_access_key_id: id,
  aws_secret_access_key: secret,
  provider: 'AWS',
  path_style: true,
  port: "443",
  scheme: "https",
)

dir = client.directories.get(bucket_name)
puts "Got directory: #{dir.inspect}"

created_file = dir.files.create(key: "the-key", body: "the-body", public: true)
puts "Created file: #{created_file.inspect}"

read_file = dir.files.get("the-key")
puts "Read file: #{read_file.inspect}"

Thanks,

Hi Max,

We tried your script, and it looks like the problem is that we have no bucket created.

When we run the script, we get "Got directory: nil".

We verified that the bucket name was correctly parsed from VCAP services and put into the 'bucket_name' variable.

So, it looks like this might have been a problem with the bucket not getting created properly when the service was initially created in CF (e.g. cf create-service ...).

I understand that this probably isn't a bug with this bosh release repo (per our email discussions). So, feel free to contact us directly via email if you'd like us to move this bug to be opened against a different repo.

We have this working now, via the test script, and our app and the aws_s3 gem. We've re-created the service, not sure why it didn't seem to have a bucket the first time we created it.

This still doesn't work via Transmit, it can never see the bucket, but that's an unrelated issue.

This issue can be closed, thanks for your help.
