AWS Amazon Signed Authentication

I need experienced AWS coders in PHP to fix an existing script. You must be experienced to bid.

I had a server-side script written in PHP to pull all information products from Amazons product database using AWS with ID# and Secret Key.

The server script pulls the description, features, and all reviews for any product sold by amazon based on keyword search phrase. After fetching it then creates a CSV file with the results ready to download from script area residing on my own server.

Script allows user to create Projects based on keyword searches of Amazon browse nodes. This uses a fetch routine on a single page that is called by cron job. This fetch routing initiate the projects created for searching with keywords within designated browse nodes. This must use signed authentication at the call to AWS.

It was working fine after Amazon required signed authentication for data fetch this year on 15 August 2009.

Now the script is hung up when the fetch page is fired by cron job. it fails and gives the error codes and then loops back to try again, ultimately timing out and stopping.

The coder has done a disappearing act, so I need to hire a PHP coder with complete experience with Amazon AWS and the signed authentication protocols to look at the script and fix the problem.

The source code for the script is all open and commented fully. I can give you the code and full explanation of how it works and you can login to create a project on that side

The fetch page can be fired manually in a browser to see the error codes

Now… do not apply, bid, or contact me unless you have full experience and knowledge of the AWS protocols. This is not a job to learn but for an experienced coder to go and find the problem.

I think this is a very simple fix looking at the error codes, so I am setting the bid at $30. If it takes more time to fix it, then we will adjust the price paid.
