Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse/issues/2219

Additional Information

Version of s3fs being used (`s3fs --version`)

Amazon Simple Storage Service File System V1.90 (commit:unknown) with GnuTLS(gcrypt)

Version of fuse being used (`pkg-config --modversion fuse`, `rpm -qi fuse` or `dpkg -s fuse`)

Version: 2.9.9-2

Kernel information (`uname -r`)

6.3.0-1-amd64

GNU/Linux Distribution, if applicable (`cat /etc/os-release`)

Debian GNU/Linux trixie/sid

How to run s3fs, if applicable

[x] command line

$ s3fs backup /media/storj_backup -o host=https://gateway.storjshare.io

[x] /etc/fstab

backup /media/storj_backup fuse.s3fs _netdev,noauto,user,host=https://gateway.storjshare.io 0 0

s3fs syslog messages (`grep s3fs /var/log/syslog`, `journalctl | grep s3fs`, or `s3fs outputs`)

Details about issue

I can connect (and work with) my bucket via command line but I cannot convert the command into valid fstab record and mount it.

if I run it from my home mount command tell me it tries to mount /home/n1/backup ("backup" is my bucket name) - that's a nonsense.
if I run it from root (/) I get s3fs: could not determine how to establish security credentials.
if I prepend s3fs# to the fstab record I get s3fs: BUCKET s3fs#backup -- bucket name contains an illegal character.

I miss something but I don't know what's that.

Hey, try to run this journalctl -b -n 100 --no-pager -f in parallel when you run the command and paste it. It might throw better insights
