S3Bucket external-name annotation not working

[publiusi]

When creating a aws Bucket in a composition, using the external-name annotation:

    - base:
        apiVersion: s3.aws.crossplane.io/v1beta1
        kind: Bucket
        metadata:
          name: poc-dev-bucket
          **annotations:
            crossplane.io/external-name: poc-dev-bucket**
          labels:
            name: poc-dev-bucket

The bucket is not created and the following error is thrown:
failed to query Bucket: BucketRegionError: incorrect region, the bucket is not in ‘us-west-2’ region status code: 301, request id: AF960CE31F54F2A6, host id: mEymAUMu6Qchg9fB3lUS8pGi0D5hRxumiZm2LzzJ+YYyaFns/L2YorqW1mqWZZpmg6worAMgu20=

How can we reproduce it?

What environment did it happen in?

Crossplane version: 0.14

This issue appears to have some good information: aws/aws-sdk-go#720

@publiusi AWS allows to use a bucket name only once in the same AWS account, no matter the region. If you try to create/get a bucket with name of another bucket that exists in a different region, that's what you'd get as an error. I'd check other regions for that bucket and delete it if you really need to use that name in another region.

I will test again and let you know. I did test and made sure there is no queue with that name in any region and only after that I created the ticket. Will let you know
