Hi Nicholas,

I see there was a previous ticket regarding using Kickstart with import from Amazon S3, and you suggested they try a dev version of Kickstart 9.0.2. Is that the same version which is available for download as Kickstart Pro 9.0.2 on akeebabackup.com? Because that's what I was trying to use, and after entering ID and Secret ID the "Connect to Amazon S3" button just stays green and no connection is ever made (.jpa files are not populated in fields).

If I use Kickstart Pro 8.0.6 it works perfectly.

Thanks

Nicola

Can you please try the dev release from https://www.akeeba.com/download/kickstartpro/9-0-3-dev202602182111-rev4663396.html 

It should work fine with S3 and any S3-compatible service. This is the code I have been working on this week. The previous version did indeed have a bug which resulted in an empty response when trying to connect to S3.
