Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/s3fs-fuse/s3fs-fuse/issues/317

We are planning to use S3FS-Fuse on Redhat Linux (running on AWS EC2 instances). I followed the steps for my proof of concept in Ubuntu and it worked OK. But when I tried to do the same according to the documentation in the Readme on Redhat, ran into issues.

Firstly, Fuse needs to be upgraded to 2.9.4. Secondly, there seems to be permission issues. Even after doing the steps from different forums (after googling) as below, it doesn't seems to work. The S3 bucket is getting mounted and the existing files are listed. But not able to create new folder and files.

/bin/su -s /bin/bash -c 's3fs sample_bucket /mnt/s3mount -o noatime -o allow_other -o passwd_file=/etc/aws_pd -o rw -o uid=-o gid= -o use_cache=/tmp -o default_acl=public-read' www-data

Please assist with the correct steps to install this and get it working on Redhat.

@ajaygarga Please run s3fs with "dbglevel" (and "curldbg"), thus we will gets detail about error and find out the reason of not-read files.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Your command line appears to be missing some spaces:

-o uid=-o gid=

Did you intend to give uid and gid numeric values?
