Troubleshooting Versioning

Identify and address common issues that can occur while working with object versioning on Compute Cloud@Customer.

Unable to Enable Versioning

If enabling versioning fails, the most likely cause is missing or incomplete IAM permissions. Enabling versioning requires:

  • User permissions that let you use the bucket and manage the objects in that bucket.

  • BUCKET_UPDATE permissions.

Unable to Delete a Bucket

If deleting a bucket fails, the most likely cause is that the bucket is not empty.

You can permanently delete an empty bucket. You can't delete a bucket that contains any of the following:

  • Any objects

  • Previous versions of an object

  • A multipart upload in progress

  • A preauthenticated request

Tip

When you delete an object in a version-enabled bucket, a previous version of that object is created. Select Show Deleted Objects to display the object versions that might prevent you from deleting the bucket.

Unable to Delete a Previous Version

If deleting a previous object version fails, the most likely cause is missing or incomplete IAM permissions. Object version deletion requires:

  • User permissions that let you use the bucket and manage the objects in that bucket.

  • At minimum, OBJECT_VERSION_DELETE permissions.
