Symptoms

A PUT request is sent to ECS, the request is denied showing "403 - unauthorized"
The object name contains a _ underscore or another safe character. 
GET requests are working properly.
For example, PUT requests from "SAS Viya" Application fail when using the underscore.

Example Request 403 Signature mismatch error:

2024-02-27 12:10:28,631 ac1f9511:189029ad365:357c84:389  123.45.xxx.xx:9021 172.31.xxx.xxx:9862 - htClient POST - sasviya-qa tmp_aaaaaaaa-bbbb-cccc-dddd-a3c2d3b40815_12345678.sashdat uploads HTTP/1.1 403 31 - - -1 - - - 123.xx.xx.xx 'X-Forwarded-For: 172.xx.xx.x'

svc_log confirms this is a signature mismatch:

svc_log -f "ac1f9511:189029ad365:357c84:389" -sr dataheadsvc -start 1d ago -sn -sf

Cause

The application URL encodes all requests before sending the request to the target server. Therefore, the safe character is being replaced with its url value, like _ is being replaced with %5F. 

Resolution

The issue is fixed in release 3.8.x.
After the upgrade, a parameter must be set to allow safe characters. Reach out to Dell support to set this parameter.
