SignatureDoesNotMatch – Boto3 Django-storages

I have the following config:

Django/DRF
Boto3
Django-storages

I am using an IAM user credentials with one set of keys. I have removed all other sets of keys including root keys from my account, to eliminate keys mismatch.

I created a new bucket my-prod-bucket. Updated the bucket name settings in my env file. I ran python3 manage.py collectstatic and it created the new bucket without a problem.

my .env:

AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=something
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=something
AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME=my-prod-bucket

my settings.py (using python-decouple to grab from .env):

AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID = config('AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID')
AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY = config('AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY')
AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME = config('AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME')

AWS_S3_CUSTOM_DOMAIN = '%s.s3.ca-central-1.amazonaws.com' % AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME
AWS_S3_REGION_NAME = 'ca-central-1'


AWS_HEADERS = {
    'CacheControl': 'max-age=86400',
}

AWS_STATIC_LOCATION = 'static'
STATIC_URL = 'https://%s/%s/' % (AWS_S3_CUSTOM_DOMAIN, AWS_STATIC_LOCATION)
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'portal.storage_backends.StaticStorage'

# =======
AWS_DEFAULT_ACL = None

AWS_AUTO_CREATE_BUCKET = True
S3_USE_SIGV4 = True

I can upload and delete however when I try to download a file I get:

I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong. I searched every post on this error but couldn’t find anything recent that fits my scenario.

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot will be greatly appreciated.
