After deleting a bucket to reconfigure its properties, the bucket continued to show as 'Not found' I assume it was deleted, but I am not able to create a bucket with the same name due to it already existing.
Steps for deleting:
- Removed all dependencies pointing to S3 bucket content
- Deleted all content within S3 Bucket
- Deleted bucket
Is this a bug or a common issue?
Note: To see if it was caching, waited a few hours since the bucket was deleted.

Amazon is somewhat ambiguous about the policy for bucket name re-use. From https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/BucketRestrictions.html
Reusing bucket names
If a bucket is empty, you can delete it. After a bucket is deleted, the name becomes available for reuse. However, after you delete the bucket, you might not be able to reuse the name for various reasons.
For example, when you delete the bucket and the name becomes available for reuse, another AWS account might create a bucket with that name. In addition, some time might pass before you can reuse the name of a deleted bucket. If you want to use the same bucket name, we recommend that you don't delete the bucket.
