What happend
Backblaze release there cloud storage’s S3 compatible API about 2 week ago. Given that it is more reliable and cheaper, I tried to move my primary s3 backend from self-hosted MinIO to B2 Cloud Storage this morning but failed.
I’m using K3S v17.3 and latest stable/nextcloud chart. After first failed I thought that is a database issue so I change my database backend from mariadb to sqlite but still not work.
Logs
Apache2’s logs said Pod’s livenessProbe checked /status.php but always got 400:
there is no log from nextcloud, even after set loglevel to debug:
and I don’t know how to get log from php side. Please somebody here told me how to get log from php side.
Possible reason
Since I only modified the S3 configuration file, I can only think that B2’s S3 API does not meet the requirements of nextcloud.
Here’s B2 said what they support or not:
Supported Calls
The Backblaze S3 Compatible API returns calls in the same way the AWS S3 API does. Note that this may vary slightly from AWS S3 API documentation - this difference is expected based on the AWS S3 API. Here are the calls that are supported:

Get Bucket ACL
Get Bucket Location

Unsupported Features
The Backblaze S3 Compatible API does not currently support the following features:
ACLs (see above)
IAM roles

PS. Region us-west-1 works with other apps and nextcloud don’t work with us-west-002 either I checked.
PS. I tried both nc18 and nc17.
What hpappend with B2’s storage
Infact, after the very first pod failed, there is some files in B2’s bucket generated by nextcloud.
I download that urn:oid:5 file from B2’s cloud storage.
Seek for help
Is here anyone use B2’s S3 API as well and how about you?
