ec2-upload-bundle failed: HTTP put failed: curl returned response code 77
Posted: Aug 10, 2007 5:58 PM PDT

I encountered the following error while trying to upload a bundle from within an ec2 instance:

----------------- START ------------------------------------

> ec2-upload-bundle -b remobo_seed_bundle_070810 -m /mnt/elephants.bundle/ec2bundle.manifest.xml -a xxxxxxxxx -s yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Uploading bundled AMI parts to https://s3.amazonaws.com:443/remobo_seed_bundle_070810 ...
Error: failed to upload "/mnt/elephants.bundle/ec2bundle.part.00", HTTP put failed: curl returned response code 77
ec2-upload-bundle failed

----------------- END ------------------------------------

The ec2bundle is built from within the same ec2 instance via the following ec2-bundle-vol command:

----------------- START ------------------------------------

> mkdir /mnt/elephants.bundle
> ec2-bundle-vol -c /root/aws_keys/cert-xxxxxxx.pem -k /root/aws_keys/pk-yyyyyyy.pem -u nnnn-nnnn-nnnn -s 1024 -d /mnt/elephants.bundle -p ec2bundle -e /dev/pts,/dev/shm,/dev/.static,/media,/mnt,/opt/remobo/log,/proc,/tmp

Any idea why the ec2-upload-bundle command failed and how to fix it ? Thanks,

Correct

Hi Jon,

My version of curl doesn't have a response code 77 in its documentation, but I searched and found that this was added later for problems reading or accessing the SSL CA certificate. You should run "man curl" to read the documentation for your version of curl. The error codes are listed at the end.

If this is the problem, you could use the ec2-upload-bundle --url option and specify http://s3.amazonaws.com. I assume the SSL CA cert would no longer be necessary if you don't use SSL.

Regards,
TD

I also encountered this Curl error code and the suggested solution works for me, use:

ec2-upload-bundle --url http://s3.amazonaws.com

Hi John,

According to the curl documentation:

CURLE_SSL_CACERT_BADFILE (77)
Problem with reading the SSL CA cert (path? access rights?)

This generally indicates badly configured or missing certificate authority information for your curl installation. Until you get a chance to fix this, you can work around it by specifying "--url http://s3.amazonaws.com" as an option to ec2-upload-bundle. This will use the non https access point to S3.

Regards,
Ben

I got the same error today but I was using rightscale. I just deleted what got moved to s3 and did another bundle. I think rightscale had a little net hickup.

Had the same problem. The solution was to apt-get install ca-certificates. But don't know on which distro you are working.

I'm having the same problem and got around it with the --url option. One question, though: doesn't this expose my Secret Access Key to the Internet?
