The message in this case is quite explicit

The AWS Access Key Id you provided does not exist in our records.

There is no abc key. If you have an AWS account, go to the IAM console and take the key from there: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_access-keys.html

Even better create a new user that will only be used for CLI. You need to make sure this user will have rights on your s3 bucket (if the goal is to manage that). Once you have the user created, create security credentials that you can use from your script.

Another point: DO NOT EXPOSE YOUR AWS KEY directly in your script. Check the Boto doc on how to manage your credentials and use them from your script.

access_key = 'AKIAIOSFODNN7EXAMPLE' secret_key = 'wJalrXUtnFEMI/K7MDENG/bPxRfiCYEXAMPLEKEY' I am using this one only..still getting same error.

honestly EXAMPLE in your access_key, I am not saying it can not happen but I really doubt, dont take it from somewhere on the net, take it from your account

Now i am using correct access key from my account only. now its showing this error:(while creating bucket) raise ex gaierror: [Errno -2] Name or service not known

humm .. can you try bucket = aws_connection.create_bucket('mybucket0005', Location.USWest2) I would also recommend you switch to latest boto3 (rather than boto v2)

Did you check if your AWS keys are correct? You can use Commandeer App to Test it out from the new/existing account screen.
