Terraform (and AzureRM Provider) Version

Hello,
Since today terraform refuses to deploy our .NET core web application to azure using terraform. Everything worked fine yesterday, we didn't change anything.

Relevant terraform config

resource "azurerm_resource_group" "rgnetwork" {
    name = var.ResourceGroupNameNetwork
    location = "West europe"
}

resource "azurerm_app_service_plan" "asp" {
    name = var.asp-name
    resource_group_name = azurerm_resource_group.rg.name
    location = azurerm_resource_group.rg.location
    kind = "Windows"

    sku {
        size = var.asp-sku-size
        tier = var.asp-sku-tier
    }
}

Debug Output

Message="Property id '' at path 'properties.hostingEnvironmentProfile.id' is invalid
https://gist.github.com/woeterman94/8abb5a9706c8cc101bacd07f1330905d

Expected Behavior

Create / update the resource

Actual Behavior

The step crashed.

(same issue as : hashicorp/terraform#24209 ? )

Put

provider "azurerm" {
  version = "~> 1.44"
}

On top of my terraform file, app service plan steps keep failing

Maybe this issue is only about azurem v 2.0.0
If you can stay on version 1.44, may be you can try to force version:

provider "azurerm" {
version = "=1.44.0"
}

Thanks, but see above. I did set the version to 1.44.

I opened a pull request here: #5910

I'm not sure that this is the reason why the step keeps failing, but it's my best guess since that line was changed 3 days ago.

[woeterman94]

v2.1.0? What about the older versions?

[rikkiprince]

My temporary solution to get us unblocked was to manually delete the affected resources, then re-run the terraform at 1.44. Luckily this was just affecting our development environment.

This is less than ideal, but if you're totally stuck, and it's safe to temporarily delete your app service, then recreate it, this might help you!

[woeterman94]

This issue will be fixed in the next version. Looks like people stuck on 1.44 are forced to upgrade.

Hi @woeterman94
As far as I am aware, this issue was introduced in 2.0, and was not present in 1.44. However, if you have run Terraform with version 2.0 of the AzureRM provider against your configuration(s) then your state will have likely been modified. Terraform prevents earlier versions modifying the state, so you'd not be able to simply drop back to 1.44 without either restoring an earlier version of the state (assuming you're on remote state with versioning) or by modifying the state yourself (possibly remove and import, or manually). I'm afraid I can't advise on which would be the appropriate option in your situation.

This has been released in version 2.1.0 of the provider. Please see the Terraform documentation on provider versioning or reach out if you need any assistance upgrading. As an example:

provider "azurerm" {
    version = "~> 2.1.0"
}
# ... other configuration ...
