When I deploy my application to a EC2 instance, it fails to fetch messages from my SQS queue. And instead throws an exception with the status code 403 Forbidden, access to the resource {sqs queue} is denied
. However, when I run the same code from my local environment my application can fetch messages from the SQS queue.
My application uses the symfony framework and passes pre-configured AWS credentials, for a user who has access to this queue, from the parameters.yml into \Aws\Sqs\SqsClient()
.
If on the EC2 instance I run aws configure and configure the aws cli with the same credentials the application can pull messages from the SQS queue. I am concerned here because it is like the aws sdk is overriding the credentials I pass it.
As a example the following code even with hard coded parameters which I have checked are valid credentials, returns a 403 when ran on a EC2 instances.
$sqs = new \Aws\Sqs\SqsClient([
[
'key' => '{my key}',
'secret' => '{my secret}'
],
'region' => 'us-east-1',
'version' => 'latest'
]);
$response = $sqs->receiveMessage([
'QueueUrl' => 'https://sqs.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/{my account}/{my queue}'
]);
Does anyone have any suggestions about what may be happening here?
