 * Hello,
 * We have been using UpDraftPlus Backups plugin for over a year on all our sites
   and it works great. But ever since we installed the AWS for WordPress Plugin 
   on one of our site (also known as Amazon Polly) to direct viewer’s traffic to
   AWS CloudFront, the UpDraftPlus plugin stops syncing with AWS S3 bucket. We’re
   able to create backups and can download the backup locally but it’s not pushing
   the S3 bucket. I read another forum that the problem is that the Amazon Polly
   plugin is using AWS SDK for PHP v.3, while some other plugins still use old v.
   2. The problem is that those two versions are not compatible, see full article
   [here](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-aws-sdk-usage-seem-to-conflict-with-other-plugins-using-aws-sdk/).
 * Is there any way to make the two plugins work together?
 * Thanks!

 * Hi,
 * Please could you send us a full copy of the backup log? So our developers can
   check on this issue further.
 * Please use an online service such as Dropbox or Pastebin, and post the link here.

 * Sorry for the late response but here is the log. Starting on line 229 you will
   see the error message.

 * Hi Vicky,
 * I’m so sorry for the late reply.
 * Please can you update your plugin to latest version and see if that helps fix
   the issue? Also, it appears that the S3 settings is not complete. Can you make
   sure you have entered the correct details?
 * Best Wishes,
    Bryle

 * Hi Bryle,
 * I updated the plugin to latest version and corrected the S3 settings. This error
   pops up:
 * “Amazon S3: Error: Failed to initialise: Missing required client configuration
   options:
 * version: (string)
 *  A “version” configuration value is required. Specifying a version constraint
   
   ensures that your code will not be affected by a breaking change made to the 
   service. For example, when using Amazon S3, you can lock your API version to “
   2006-03-01”.
 *  Your build of the SDK has the following version(s) of “s3”: * “2006-03-01”
 *  You may provide “latest” to the “version” configuration value to utilize the
   
   most recent available API version that your client’s API provider can find. Note:
   Using ‘latest’ in a production application is not recommended.
 *  A list of available API versions can be found on each client’s API documentation
   
   page: [http://docs.aws.amazon.com/aws-sdk-php/v3/api/index.html](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/aws-sdk-php/v3/api/index.html).
   If you are unable to load a specific API version, then you may need to update
   your copy of the SDK. (line: 397, file: /opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-
   content/plugins/amazon-polly/vendor/aws/aws-sdk-php/src/ClientResolver.php)”
 * This is also seen in the logs from my earlier response.
 * I deactivated the AWS for WordPress plugin aka Amazon Polly, and the S3 test 
   settings in UpdraftPlus worked. I then tried a manual backup but it keeps failing.
   Here you can see the new log: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/i5o28ilfaqglrfg/log.070c51392bfb.txt?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/i5o28ilfaqglrfg/log.070c51392bfb.txt?dl=0)

 * Hi [@bcrodua](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bcrodua/),
 * I tried down grading my WordPress to 5.3.4 to see if it would help Amazon Polly
   plugin (compatible up to 5.3.4)but I’m still getting the same error message. 
   I contacted the developers for the AWS for WordPress aka Amazon Polly plugin 
   and this is what they had to say, “Hi,
    I’ve checked the logs which you provided.
   To be honest it looks like the problem is on other side – in short the other 
   plugin is using very old version od AWS SDK – which is not compatible with new
   versions (one of them is being used by this plugin). Not a lot which we can do
   in this case :/ sorry.”. You can see the open topic [here](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/aws-for-wordpress-plugin-does-not-work-with-updraft-plus-plugin/#post-13506922).
 * I’m wondering if what they say is true, is UpdraftPlus plugin using an old AWS
   SDK version?
 * Thanks!
