AWS Troubleshooting

"Access Denied" on Bedrock

Verify model access in the Bedrock Console
Check IAM policy includes bedrock:InvokeModel:

{
  "Version": "2012-10-17",
  "Statement": [
    {
      "Effect": "Allow",
      "Action": ["bedrock:InvokeModel"],
      "Resource": "*"
    }
  ]
}

Ensure the model ID in config matches an accessible model

"ResourceNotFoundException" on DynamoDB

The table doesn't exist or is in a different region:

aws dynamodb describe-table --table-name docket --region us-east-1

"Queue does not exist" on SQS

Verify the queue URL:

aws sqs get-queue-url --queue-name docket-jobs

Slow Bedrock responses

Use a model in your closest region
Reduce maxTokens to limit generation time
Enable response streaming (future feature)

DynamoDB throttling

You're exceeding provisioned capacity:

Switch to on-demand billing
Or increase provisioned RCU/WCU
Or add exponential backoff in your client

S3 "NoSuchBucket"

Bucket name is globally unique. If you get this error:

Check the exact bucket name in config
Verify the bucket exists: aws s3 ls s3://your-bucket
Ensure the region in config matches the bucket region

High latency from outside AWS

If users are far from your AWS region:

Deploy Docket closer to users (multi-region)
Use CloudFront for S3 content
Consider Cloudflare R2 for zero-egress blob storage
