Explanation of this issue

When you are getting the issue of “bucket cannot have ACLs set with objectownership’s bucketownerenforced setting” then it means that the owner of the account of the bucket will always be considered the owner of Objects uploaded to the bucket. This setting would ensure that the bucket owner retains full control over all objects stored in the bucket.

Steps to address the issue

You can resolve and troubleshoot the issue by using the few options which are given below:-

Use bucket policies or IAM policies

You can use the bucket policies or IAM policies instead of setting object-level ACLs. These above policies would help you in defining fine-grained access control based on the various conditions, including object prefixes, IP addresses, or IAM user roles.

Disable bucket ownership enforcement

If you found that setting object-level ACLs is necessary for your particular case then you can consider disabling the “bucket ownership enforced” setting on the S3 bucket. You should keep in mind that this will revert to the standard behavior where the account of the uploader becomes the owner of the object, potentially affecting the bucket’s owner control over the objects.
