What to do on "Incompatible API version with plugin" error message?

[bernard357]

Hello there. This are the messages returned by terraform:

$ terraform validate
There are warnings and/or errors related to your configuration. Please
fix these before continuing.

Errors:

  * provider.ddcloud: Incompatible API version with plugin. Plugin version: 1, Ours: 4

Can you help please?

What version of Terraform are you using?

Run terraform version to check.

Usually this message means the version of the ddcloud provider you are using was built against an older or newer version of Terraform. If you're on v1.3.x of the ddcloud provider, you need Terraform v0.8.1 or newer; if you're on v1.2.x or older, you need Terraform v0.7.x or older.

$ terraform --version
Terraform v0.10.7

The version of the dd cloud provider is the most recent release from the GitHub site.

v1.3.0 supports Terraform v0.9.x - I think v0.10.x is not supported yet. Make sure you're on v1.3.0 of the provider and v0.9.x of Terraform. Our next release (v1.4.x) will support Terraform v0.10.x.

Sorry about that. Part of the problem is they keep changing the plugin protocol and its not backward-compatible. So each version of our provider can only target a specific version of Terraform (more or less).

@bernard357 hi, sorry it's taken me a while to circle back to this (I kinda forgot about it). Are you still having problems?
