ok, I think I have an issue with my s3 server, as rclone can't download files either. it can list them but not copy

so closing this for now.

Unfortunately, rustic is a bit limited when rclone returns errors. If you wait until the retries time out, you'll see the http error produced by rclone. Also rustic tries to detect and differentiate permanent and non-permanent errors, but can do so only by using the http return codes - and rclone in not always able to produce reasonable ones.

To debug the rclone behavior, set the env variable RCLONE_VERBOSE=2. (You can change the rclone behavior via env variables as-you-like as rustic passes all env to rclone)
