AWS/S3 limited to us-east-1

[quattro]

Hi all,

I'm trying to upload data using an S3 instance on the TOPMed server, but getting an AUTH error. It seems like the AWS/S3 upload functionality is hardcoded to use US-East region settings, which breaks for instances set up elsewhere (e.g., US-West).

Here is the error message I received on the server when trying to use the S3 functionality:

Error: The authorization header is malformed; the region 'us-east-1' is wrong; expecting 'us-west-1' (Service: Amazon S3; Status Code: 400; Error Code: AuthorizationHeaderMalformed; Request ID: YT7XVD0GB2XG6QGC; S3 Extended Request ID: nTH9flTG3TNHEOr0z49Fd+ZoWommIFlY7X6ezToFVOxejPpuUl7hknhg/uLF7rDYwT5V0aWyadc=; Proxy: null)
