error setting up OVH S3 as terraform backend

[Crocmagnon]

Hello,

I'm getting an error when setting OVH S3 as my terraform backend.
I followed this guide: https://help.ovhcloud.com/csm/en-public-cloud-compute-terraform-high-perf-object-storage-backend-state?id=kb_article_view&sysparm_article=KB0051345

Here is my config, copied from the guide.
I have proper access and secret keys, redacted here. It looks like it was able to fetch the state but it can't write it.

# backend.tf
terraform {
  backend "s3" {
    bucket = "terraform-state-gaugendre"
    key    = "terraform.tfstate"
    region = "gra"
    endpoints = {
      s3 = "https://s3.gra.io.cloud.ovh.net/"
    }
    skip_credentials_validation = true
    skip_region_validation      = true
    skip_requesting_account_id  = true
    skip_s3_checksum            = true

    access_key                  = "xx"
    secret_key                  = "xx"
  }
}

$ terraform init
Initializing the backend...
Do you want to copy existing state to the new backend?
  Pre-existing state was found while migrating the previous "local" backend to the

  configured "s3" backend. Do you want to copy this state to the new "s3"
  backend? Enter "yes" to copy and "no" to start with an empty state.

  Enter a value: yes

$ terraform -version
Terraform v1.11.3
on darwin_arm64
+ provider registry.terraform.io/ovh/ovh v2.1.0

I tried to contact the support using the big shiny button but they told me that they don't offer support for this.

I found #5430 discussing a similar issue but the workarounds mentioned seem already integrated in the guide.

After seeing this warning on the "getting started with S3" guide, I tried to downgrade terraform to 1.10.5, which fixes the issue.

Maybe a similar warning should be added to the S3 backend guide.

Valid config to enforce the terraform version:

terraform {
  required_version = ">=1.6.0,<1.11.0"
  backend "s3" {
    bucket = "<bucket-name>"
    key    = "terraform.tfstate"
    region = "gra"
    endpoints = {
      s3 = "https://s3.gra.io.cloud.ovh.net/"
    }
    skip_credentials_validation = true
    skip_region_validation      = true
    skip_requesting_account_id  = true
    skip_s3_checksum            = true
  }
  required_providers {
    ovh = {
      source  = "ovh/ovh"
      version = "~>2.1"
    }
  }
}
