Terraform known issues Cheat Sheet

Signature expired: xxxx is now earlier than xxx

If, suddently, you obtain an error message Signature expired: xxx is now earlier than xxx', like this:

Don’t worry it’s not an issue in the AWS account/user/credentials in terraform files

BUT it’s an issue in your local machine date and time!

So the solution is, simply: update your date and time to the good time ;-).

AWS was not able to validate the provided access credentials

If, suddently, you obtain an error message AWS was not able to validate the provided access credentials, like this:

* data.aws_vpc.vpc-titi: data.aws_vpc.vpc-titi:
AuthFailure: AWS was not able to validate the provided access credentials
status code: 401, request id: 9fbd5beb-e065-4933-ba67-2ceae9104c4c

No worries, it’s the same issue as above: your local/VM machine date and time is not uptodate ;-).

Error configuring the backend s3: RequestError: send request failed

Again, you changed nothing but suddently you obtain a strange error message:

Initializing the backend...

Error configuring the backend "s3": RequestError: send request failed
caused by: Post https://sts.amazonaws.com/: Parent proxy unreacheable
...

It caused in reality by a proxy or a temporary issue between your network connectivity and AWS.
