Hi Kostia, thank you for writing to the Flink mailing list. I actually started to try out our S3 File system support after I saw your question on StackOverflow [1]. I found that our S3 connector is very broken. I had to resolve two more issues with it, before I was able to get the same exception you reported.
Another Flink commiter looked into the issue as well (it was confirmed as well) but there was no solution [2]. So for now, I would say we have to assume that our S3 connector is not working. I will start a separate discussion at the developer mailing list to remove our S3 connector. The good news is that you can just use Hadoop's S3 File System implementation with Flink. I used this Flink program to verify its working: public class S3FileSystem { public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception { ExecutionEnvironment ee = ExecutionEnvironment.createLocalEnvironment(); DataSet<String> myLines = ee.readTextFile("s3n://my-bucket-name/some-test-file.xml"); myLines.print(); } } also, you need to make a Hadoop configuration file available to Flink. When running flink locally in your IDE, just create a "core-site.xml" in the src/main/resource folder, with the following content: <configuration> <property> <name>fs.s3n.awsAccessKeyId</name> <value>putKeyHere</value> </property> <property> <name>fs.s3n.awsSecretAccessKey</name> <value>putSecretHere</value> </property> <property> <name>fs.s3n.impl</name> <value>org.apache.hadoop.fs.s3native.NativeS3FileSystem</value> </property> </configuration> Maybe you are running on a cluster, then re-use the existing core-site.xml file (= edit it) and point to the directory using Flink's fs.hdfs.hadoopconf configuration option. With these two things in place, you should be good to go.
