aws s3 sync failes: A client error (SignatureDoesNotMatch) occurred when calling the UploadPart operation:

[BooZaToX]

I am syncing between my local debian server and aws s3 bucket as follows:

aws-cli/1.6.4 Python/2.7.8 Linux/3.16.0-4-amd64:

sudo aws s3 sync /home/thomas s3://eusmsbackup/Computer/hybrid/home/thomas --recursive --include "" --exclude "/home/thomas/." --exclude "/home/thomas/Downloads/" --exclude "/home/thomas/tmp/" --exclude "/home/thomas/workspace/"

throughs this error with larger files(?):

thomas@hybrid:~$ aws s3 sync /home/thomas s3://eusmsbackup/Computer/hybrid/home/thomas --recursive --include "" --exclude "/home/thomas/." --exclude "/home/thomas/Downloads/" --exclude "/home/thomas/tmp/" --exclude "/home/thomas/workspace/"

What region are you syncing to? We have run into similar issues specifically for eu-central-1 because it uses sigv4. We have a PR on botocore that should fix the issue: boto/botocore#388

I believe this issue is now fixed via boto/botocore#388, and will be available in the next AWS CLI release.
