I'm facing problems with uploading files to my bucket. AWS::S3::S3Object.store("paper.pdf", open("paper.pdf"), "this_is_my_uniqe_bucket", :access => :public_read) This trows exception: Your socket connection to the server was not read from or written to within the timeout period. Idle connections will be closed. If I change the above open method to: open("paper.pdf") = "paper.pdf" Then I get no error? Can somebody tell me whats going on here, and thanks help :) Regards, Jamal -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
