Adding Object Storage to /etc/fstab - Getting Parse Error

I have Ubuntu 20.04 on a cloud instance. This instance is on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI). I created there an object storage that I add manually using the following command

s3fs WTX-Cotton-bucket /home/ubuntu/wtx_cotton_storage -o passwd_file=${HOME}/.passwd-s3fs -o url=https://axrpuscetkut.compat.objectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com/ -onomultipart -o use_path_request_style -o endpoint=us-ashburn-1 -o nonempty

When I reboot the instance. The storage is not mounted. Therefore, I need to add it to /etc/fstab to mounted every time the PC boots. This is my current code to added it:

WTX-Cotton-bucket /home/ubuntu/wtx_cotton_storage fuse.s3fs use_path_request_style,passwd_file=/home/ubuntu/.passwd-s3fs,url=https://axrpuscetkut.compat.objectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com,endpoint=us-ashburn-1 kernel_cache,multipart_size=128,parallel_count=50,multireq_max=100,max_background=1000,_netdev

These are the instructions from a oracle site:

<bucket_name> /path/to/<local_directory_name> fuse.s3fs use_path_request_style,passwd_file=/root/.s3fs-password,url=https://<namespace_name>.compat.objectstorage.<region_ID>.oraclecloud.com,endpoint=<region_ID> kernel_cache,multipart_size=128,parallel_count=50,multireq_max=100,max_background=1000,_netdev{code}

After adding it to /etc/fstab. I do sudo mount -a and I get this error message:

mount: /etc/fstab: parse error at line 25 -- ignored

cat -v /etc/fstab

WTX-Cotton-bucket /home/ubuntu/wtx_cotton_storage fuse.s3fs use_path_request_style,passwd_file=/home/ubuntu/.passwd-s3fs,url=https://axrpuscetkut.compat.objectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com,endpoint=us-ashburn-1 kernel_cache,multipart_size=128,parallel_count=50,multireq_max=100,max_background=1000,_netdev

Oracle has told me to remove {code}, but still not working.

The error message states line 25 is in error but you don't explicitly list line 25.

@WinEunuuchs2Unix the files has other 24 lines that are commented out. This error belongs to the line mentioned above.

After weeks of working with the support team from Oracle, they have provided me the successful code to automatically mount the object storage after reboot:

WTX-Cotton-bucket /home/ubuntu/wtx_cotton_storage fuse.s3fs allow_other,use_path_request_style,passwd_file=/home/ubuntu/.passwd-s3fs,url=https://axrpuscetkut.compat.objectstorage.us-ashburn-1.oraclecloud.com,endpoint=us-ashburn-1,kernel_cache,multipart_size=128,parallel_count=50,multireq_max=100,max_background=1000,_netdev

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
