## TL;DR

Use path-style addressing (endpoint/bucket/key), virtual-hosted style does not work. If you need S3-compatible access, create a fresh zone with S3 Compatibility enabled from the start, do not try to retrofit it.

## Steps

1. If you need S3-compatible access, create a fresh zone with S3 Compatibility enabled from the start, do not try to retrofit it. Wire clients with zone name as the access key, zone password as the secret, and the region-specific endpoint. Use path-style addressing (endpoint/bucket/key), virtual-hosted style does not work.

## When to use

You are seeing this: Wire clients with zone name as the access key, zone password as the secret, and the region-specific endpoint. Use this skill when you run into "Bunny.net S3 compatibility can only be enabled at zone creation".

## When not to use

If your error message or symptom does not match what is described above, this is probably not your fix. Search for your exact error text instead of forcing this one to fit.

## Versions

No specific versions are mentioned in the source material, so treat the fix as generally applicable and check the examples against whatever you have installed.

## Why this happens

The original report does not dig into a root cause. It documents the symptom and the fix that resolved it.
