ERROR: S3 error: 400 (InvalidRequest): The authorization mechanism you have provided is not supported. Please use AWS4-HMAC-SHA256.

Solution :
Your s3cmd has older version, you need to upgrade it. Download latest one and use the file everywhere.
https://sourceforge.net/projects/s3tools/files/s3cmd/1.6.1/
I faced this problem on 1.1 version of s3cmd, I downloaded latest and got 1.6. After that I did not get the error.


How to use the downloaded folder.
1) Extract the folder and open it.
2) Now run your s3cmd command using this downloaded folder.
 /home/ubuntu/s3cmd-1.6.1/s3cmd ls s3://

/home/ubuntu/s3cmd-1.6.1/s3cmd -c /home/ubuntu/.s3cfg put /tmp/file.sql s3://bucketname


Server reached MaxRequestWorkers setting, consider raising the MaxRequestWorkers setting

There are three modules related to this settings. 
prefork, worker and event

First find which module is activated using

a2query -M

Now change its conf file in mods-available. 

In following case, prefork is enabled, so make changes in mpm_prefork.conf

Open file mpm_prefork.conf and increase the MaxRequestWorkers settings according to your RAM.

MaxRequestWorkers
A simple calculation for MaxRequestWorkers would be: 

(Total Memory – Critical Services Memory) / Size Per Apache process

In this case the server has 3400Mb of memory allocated, 

250Mb used by mySQL and each Apache thread averages about 30Mb. 
MaxRequestWorkers = (3400– 250) / 30
therefore MaxRequestWorkers = 105

Restart Apache. Check here too.
