Hi Scott, thanks for the quick reply.

Ah, got it, that makes sense.

Yes, as I can create a bucket with the same credentials but using s3curl 
instead.

I've found the problem: resetConnection is being called at the end of __init__,
and that is calling get_bucket, but without the exception handling that put() 
has.
So, looks like the create_bucket exception handling should be in 
resetConnection()
instead of put() do you think?

Shall I raise a bug report or am I misunderstanding something?

Thanks,

Andy
