RVR-ATH-205

Issue summary

The error code RVR-ATH-205 encountered when connecting to Amazon Athena with the message "Error trying to connect to get buckets" indicates a problem accessing the bucket list required for the connection. This issue can be caused by incorrect permissions or configurations in the AWS environment set up for Data Integration Athena connection. Specifically, the IAM role or user associated with Data Integration might not have sufficient permissions to list S3 buckets, which is critical for Athena connections.

Action steps

To resolve the error, follow these steps:

1. Verify IAM permissions: Ensure that the IAM role or user used by Data Integration has the s3:ListAllMyBuckets permission. This can be checked and adjusted in the AWS IAM console.

Here is an example of how your policy might look:

{
      "Version": "2012-10-17",
      "Statement": [
{
          "Sid": "DataIntegrationHeadBucketsAndGetLists",
          "Effect": "Allow",
          "Action": "s3:ListAllMyBuckets",
          "Resource": "*"
}
]
}

2. Check AWS credentials: Confirm that the AWS access key and secret key provided in the Data Integration Athena connection configuration is valid and corresponds to the correct AWS account.
3. Test Network connectivity: Ensure that no network issues are blocking the connection to AWS from Data Integration.
4. Correct region settings: Ensure that the AWS region specified in Data Integration matches the region in which you have your resources configured.
