Amazon cloudfront 403 errors at many edge locations?


We've recently started testing Amazon Cloudfront as a CDN. We're finding that users not in the US are fairly frequently getting 403 errors when requesting files.

We use a custom origin (not S3). Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a configuration change that we can make to stop returning 403s?

When I test files in the US that are reported 403 abroad, I have no problem viewing them.

Thanks!


Solution

  • Not sure how concrete of a answer this is but for anyone experiencing the same issue, we moved all of our content to S3 buckets and this seems to have solved our problems!
