Verify the file exists at the specified path
Ensure file permissions allow reading
Confirm the file isn’t corrupted or empty
Match contentType to the actual file extension

URL expired	Signed URL older than 1 hour	Request new URL with `get_signed_upload_url`
File too large	File exceeds 100MB limit	Compress or split the file
