Terraform apply fails first, then works 2nd time in some cases
Sometimes a terraform apply
run does some things successfully but fails before completing. Then I rerun it again immediately without any other changes/actions and it succeeds. My strong hunch about this is that most likely my resource dependencies are not modeled correctly in terraform. I have seen this in at least 2 specific cases.
- Fresh install into a blank slate AWS account.

@cludden Might you be willing to review the terraform stuff in this repo? Mostly just for generally "am I doing this right" but also if you have experienced some of the dependency issues when using modules and have suggestions I'd love to hear them.
@focusaurus I'm not exactly sure what's causing you're errors, but I pushed an example project that I through together based on past projects. Maybe you can spot the differences. Hope it helps
Thanks! Already picked up a nice tip with aws_caller_identity
. Will study in more detail soon too.
