Hi,

 

Is this a new bucket or a pre-existing bucket? I’d firstly try to create a new bucket and see if the issue reappears.

Which region is the Wasabi bucket within?

 

Can you let us know the region/language settings on your machine, I notice the screenshot seems to format the time as 21.51 instead of 21:51 and I’m wondering if there’s an issue with a particular locale on Windows. If so Veeam support will likely already be aware, but you should raise a case with them otherwise.

Hi, so are you already using that bucket for another purpose? You shouldn’t share buckets between different Veeam products or installations, appreciate you might’ve just been adding it to test however.

@MicoolPaul even if I use different bucket with immutable on bucket, it still gave me an error like that

Keen eye there.  I’m wondering if this could be causing an issue as well.  Interesting that on his machine, it’s formatted 21:51 but on the server it’s 21.51.  Best I can tell, Amazon S3 protocol requires time formats to be ISO 8601 compatible, and using a decimal to separate the hour and minute fields rather than a colon does not comply with ISO 8601.  I suspect that if the time locale on the server is converted to a compatible format, this error may go away.  The first link below references ceph, but this line in particular gives me pause.  I suspect support would have him change to a standard time format, at least for testing purposes, but I assume as well that even if it’s a bug based on the format, the support methodology is going to be to change the time format to a standards-based format.  It might actually be the only option if this is what the hold-up is actually.

 

The "x-amz-object-lock-retain-until-date" header is in the wrong format.

The same commands for Amazon S3 returns header that formatted in ISO 8601 standard:
