One of these brakes Amazon S3 backup, any idea how to fix, test etc?

Error on the S3 backup (frontend):

Just to report we see something similar on 18.04.2 after the update but only on one out of 4 virtual servers on the same machine on a Full daily backup. The one that failed .tar.gz is normally around 800MB, the ones that succeeded were small <5MB. Tried increasing "Number of times to re-try FTP or S3 uploads" to 10 and still the same "Empty response" error

Update: On checking our installation, found that this particular server didn't actually have the aws client installed. Installed awscli with pip and set the path via System Settings > Virtualmin Configuration > Backup and restore.

The problem virtual server is now uploading successfully to S3.
