Amazon S3 Signed URL in PHP - php

Question

This is the function pulled out of an old WP plugin for returning a signed Amazon S3 URL, but I can't get it to work! When I visit the signed URL it returns, I get this:
The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your key and signing method.
function s3Url($text) {
$AWS_S3_KEY = 'KEY';
$AWS_S3_SECRET = 'SECRET';
$tag_pattern = '/(\[S3 bucket\=(.*?)\ text\=(.*?)\](.*?)\[\/S3\])/i';
define("AWS_S3_KEY", $AWS_S3_KEY); // replace this with your AWS S3 key
define("AWS_S3_SECRET", $AWS_S3_SECRET); // replace this with your secret key.
$expires = time()+get_option('expire_seconds');
if (preg_match_all ($tag_pattern, $text, $matches)) {
for ($m=0; $m<count($matches[0]); $m++) {
$bucket = $matches[2][$m];
$link_text = $matches[3][$m];
$resource = $matches[4][$m];
$string_to_sign = "GET\n\n\n$expires\n/".str_replace(".s3.amazonaws.com","",$bucket)."/$resource";
//$string_to_sign = "GET\n\n\n{$expires}\n/{$bucket}/{$resource}";
$signature = urlencode(base64_encode((hash_hmac("sha1", utf8_encode($string_to_sign), AWS_S3_SECRET, TRUE))));
$authentication_params = "AWSAccessKeyId=".AWS_S3_KEY;
$authentication_params.= "&Expires={$expires}";
$authentication_params.= "&Signature={$signature}";
$tag_pattern_match = "/(\[S3 bucket\=(.*?)\ text\={$link_text}\]{$resource}\[\/S3\])/i";
if(strlen($link_text) == 0)
{
$link = "http://{$bucket}/{$resource}?{$authentication_params}";
}
else
{
$link = "<a href='http://{$bucket}/{$resource}?{$authentication_params}'>{$link_text}</a>";
}
$text = preg_replace($tag_pattern_match,$link,$text);
}
}
return $text;
}

The example provided in the Amazon AWS PHP SDK: sdk-latest\sdk-1.3.5\sdk-1.3.5\_samples\cli-s3_get_urls_for_uploads.php the following code works quite well:
/* Execute our queue of batched requests. This may take a few seconds to a
few minutes depending on the size of the files and how fast your upload
speeds are. */
$file_upload_response = $s3->batch()->send();
/* Since a batch of requests will return multiple responses, let's
make sure they ALL came back successfully using `areOK()` (singular
responses use `isOK()`). */
if ($file_upload_response->areOK())
{
// Loop through the individual filenames
foreach ($individual_filenames as $filename)
{
/* Display a URL for each of the files we uploaded. Since uploads default to
private (you can choose to override this setting when uploading), we'll
pre-authenticate the file URL for the next 5 minutes. */
echo $s3->get_object_url($bucket, $filename, '5 minutes') . PHP_EOL . PHP_EOL;
}
}
