Cannot access third-party S3 provider Contabo

Hi, when we try to connect to Contabo’s S3 Object Storage service SQLbackupAndFTP refuses to accept the string we pass it in the GUI. I figure this has to do with the fact that they use a URL which does not terminate with a top-level domain.

i.e., They follow a pattern as in this example:
https://usc1.contabostorage.com/myBucketName

(as opposed to https://mybucketName.usc1.contabostorage.com or similar)

So any fixes for this so we can access that service?

Hello Jose,

Thank you for your message.

To resolve this issue, we recommend setting up a Custom S3-compatible connection.

Please follow this guide to set it up: S3 Compatible Custom - SQLBackupAndFTP Documentation.

Additionally, could you please try specifying the URL as https://usc1.contabostorage.com and set the bucket name as myBucketName?

Do you encounter any errors in this case?

Looking forward to your response.
