Fatal error whilst creating repo on Wasabi

I’ve just created an account on Wasabi and am using their EU Central [Amsterdam] region. I exported the AWS_ACCESS_KEY and the AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY and then carried out the following command as per the Wasabi section of the documentation:

./restic -r s3:https://3.eu-central-1.wasabisys.com/gourmindia init

and this is the error message that I got:

Fatal: create repository at s3:https://3.eu-central-1.wasabisys.com/gourmindia failed: client.BucketExists: Get “https://3.eu-central-1.wasabisys.com/gourmindia/?location=”: dial tcp: lookup 3.eu-central-1.wasabisys.com on 83.138.151.81:53: no such host

Looking at the “https…” bit it’s got some ?location= at the end which appears to be empty. Not sure whether that is the problem or not. I’m using restic ver 0.12.0

I tried pinging 83.138.151.81:53 and it came back with no such host. However without the :53 at the end the server is responding. I’m wondering whether restic is automatically assuming port 53 which may be the default for wasabi in the US?

All help gratefully received with thanks.

According to this:
