I am trying to automate the deployment of VM's in Vcloud using terraform. The server that I am using doesn't have an internet connection so I had to install terraform and VCD provider offline. Terrafom init worked but when I use terraform plan is crashing... Terraform version: 1.0.11 VCD provider version: 3.2.0(I am using this version because we have vcloud 9.7). This is a testing script, to see if terraform works
terraform {
required_providers {
vcd = {
source = "vmware/vcd"
version = "3.2.0"
}
}
}
provider "vcd" {
user = "test"
password = "test"
url = "https://test/api"
auth_type = "integrated"
vdc = "Org1VDC"
org = "System"
max_retry_timeout = "60"
allow_unverified_ssl = "true"
}
resource "vcd_org_user" "my-org-admin" {
org = "my-org"
name = "my-org-admin"
description = "a new org admin"
role = "Organization Administrator"
password = "change-me"
}
When I run terraform plan I get the following error:
Error: Plugin did not respond
...
The plugin encountered an error, and failed to respond to the plugin.(*GRPCProvider).ConfigureProvider call. The plugin logs may contain more details
Stack trace from the terraform-provider-vcd_v3.2.0 plugin:
panic: runtime error: invalid memory address or nil pointer dereference
[signal SIGSEGV: segmentation violation code=0x1 addr=0x10 pc=0xaf3b75]
...
Error: The terraform-provider-vcd_v3.2.0 plugin crashed!
In the logs I can see a lot of DEBUG messages where the provider is trying to connect to github. provider.terraform-provider-vcd_v3.2.0: github.com/vmware/go-vcloud-director/v2/govcd.(*VCDClient).Authenticate(...) And for ERROR messages I only saw 2:
- plugin.(*GRPCProvider).ConfigureProvider: error="rpc error: code = Unavailable desc = transport is closing"
- Failed to read plugin lock file .terraform/plugins/linux_amd64/lock.json: open .terraform/plugins/linux_amd64/lock.json: no such file or directory
This is the first time when am I am configuring Terraform offline and am using VCD provider. Did I miss something?
