Access to CloudFront gives "ERROR: [Errno 61] Connection refused"

[nidi3]

All commands that access CloudFront fail with the message "ERROR: [Errno 61] Connection refused".
Has this something to do with #402 ?

I found the problem. Https must be used (use_https = True in .s3cfg).
It's not a bug, but it could be helpful to issue a warning if one tries to access CF without https.

Btw. I have a working prototype for v4-authentication with CF. If you are interested, I can make a pull request.

Did you try master branch? Does CF not work there with v4 sigs?

This does not look like v4 sign.

CloudFront support in s3cmd is using API version 2010-11-01. API versions 2013-05-12 and above (including current 2014-11-06) require Signature v4. Clearly this is in need of some love, and I'd appreciate any help with it. @nidi3 I would love to see your patch.

To solve the immediate problem though, we can force CF calls to use HTTPS. Please see
https://github.com/mdomsch/s3cmd/tree/bug/cf-ssl
which now does this. If it works for you, I'll merge this to master.
Thanks,
Matt

I merged the above into master. Closing this bug. Please open a new pull request with your CF v4 signature patch.
