file provisioner error: i/o timeout

[nobodynate]

Discord Thread

On a newly installed environment, when trying to deploy the rce_web_app scenario, a user got the following errors:

According to terraform aws provider docs aws_s3_bucket_object has been deprecated in favor of the aws_s3_object and will be removed in a future version (though I can't find which version).

The scenario successfully deploys in a docker container with Terraform 1.3.9.

With terraform 1.4.5 and aws-cli/2.11.12 I was able to deploy this without error. The deprecated warning still appears, but I get the success message instead of file provisioner error.

Apply complete! Resources: 48 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.

Now I think the actual issue is the i/o timeout error. Maybe this is just an issue on the user's network configuration?

Launched with Terraform version 1.2.0 and 1.5.6 and neither had the error.

Did run into a error with bucket ACLs.

 Error: creating S3 bucket ACL for cg-keystore-s3-bucket-rce-web-app-cgidbw91vqponv: AccessControlListNotSupported: The bucket does not allow ACLs

I'll open a PR to fix this. Going to removing the aws_s3_bucket_acl resources, its now default for aws buckets to be private. Going to also cleanup some of the TF ""module"".

Hi everyone, I am still getting the timeout error :(

AWS CLI version: aws-cli/2.15.6 Python/3.11.6 Darwin/23.1.0 exe/x86_64 prompt/off Terraform: Terraform v1.6.6

Is there any fix for this?

@adiveli

Could you public IP have changed? If you look in the whitelist.txt does it differ than what you get from running curl ifconfig.me?

You can also try seeing if the port is open

nmap -T4 -Pn -p 22 54.198.184.232

@andrew-aiken I have reissued : config whitelist --auto ; and now it seems to work. Thanks a lot for your help 🫡
