Blog Posting or Forum Thread on AWS Configuration?

Post by gottadoit »

Hi,

I haven't used DVDpedia or BOOKpedia in a few years. I am trying to setup my AWS credentials to use Amazon so I can scan my collection and I know have my ACCESS KEY, SECRET KEY and ASSOCIATE ID and when I try to "Sign Up" I get "The request has not been correctly signed. If you are using an AWS SDK, requests are signed for you". Is there a simple fix for this? Is there a blog post or forum thread on how to set this up correctly? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

To the staff at Bruji, I hope all are well.

Have you read this Help File entry: Searching Amazon for information

And of course there is the built-in pedia AWS facility: Hold the Opt key whilst clicking on the Help menu and ensure there is a Tick next to Amazon Test, if not just click on it. Now goto Preferences > Sites > Amazon Settings and the Access Key: field should read Amazon Test Enabled. Now click the blue Sign Up button.
