# [Plugin: W3 Total Cache] Issues using S3 CDN

 * We are using WTC with caching method being disk. It seems to work fine, issues
   we are having is getting WTC to work with S3.
 * We are in the process of moving our site from a dedicated box to EC2 and S3 and
   prior to the move we would like to ensure that WTC is working correctly with 
   S3.
 * We can confirm that WTC can coonect to S3 fine. It also recognises the bucket
   we have created for this puprose. We are however facing the following two issus:
 * 1. When we export media library to S3, only files from year 2009 is copied across.
   Files from 2010 are not copied. We have tried ‘Force over-writing of existing
   files’ but does not make a difference. Whilst we can copy files from 2010 manually
   to S3, we would like to confirm if this is bug in WTC or if we are doing something
   wrong.
 * 2. If CDN is enabled then no images are displayed on our blog site, a link is
   the image is present instead. Even our site logo which is stored in the admin
   directory does not show anymore. Embeded videos on posts are also no longer present.
   We have also deleted cache in WP and in the browser but does not make any difference.
   When we disable CDN then all images are shown on the website.
 * We are unsure what is causing the about two issues and need help in resolving
   them.
 * We would also like to test if WTC could work with memcache, we have memcache 
   installed on our dedicated server. We also be using memcache on EC2. Our social
   dating application and openx use memcache on our current dedicated server. Could
   we test WTC with memcache on our server without breaking anything. The reason
   we ask this is becuase in ‘Memcached’ only appears in ‘Multiple Servers’ heading
   in caching method.
 * Thanks for help.

 * I would like to provide an update.
 * I was at a friend’s place and used his computer to view our blog site, noticed
   that the site logo wasn’t present, icons related to Sociable bookmarking were
   not there, embedded video was missing and so on. But when I view the site from
   our office computers we can see all images. We have even changed our DNS server
   clear all browser cache but we can still see all images. So not sure what’s going
   on. Please note that CDN option is currently disabled. I am proviing link to 
   one of our posts on the blog site, see if you guys can see all images or not.

   some guidance here.

 * Just discovered W3TC and must say I am very impressed. Thanks for the very effective
   plugin. It is seriously speeding things up with just page cache, so I’m not so
   concerned about CDN via Amazon S3, but is a super option to offer and would like
   to use it eventually… I’m having similar trouble and symptoms as the original
   poster (theme files like style.css are not loading). If either of you (or anyone)
   post some more info on what can be done it would be helpful for many and much
   appreciated. Thanks

 * [@greeenkaos](https://wordpress.org/support/users/greeenkaos/), can you submit
   a bug submission from the support tab of the plugin?
