From Beta 2.16.3 : i got error message Forbidden You don’t have permission to access this resource when i tried to upgrade to M3.
as i updated from 2.16.2 to 2.16.3 without ant issue, i do not understand !
Are they any changes to apply in permission rules ?
I am using last Bitnami image on top of aws
Thank’s in advance

2 / Reboot
3 / upgrade to M3
