Fail to create Stack

[shirokoweb]

Despite several attempts, I'm unable to deploy the stack. Here is the output that leads to a rollback :

Little improvement The RDS template fails because of DeletionPolicy. After adding :

  DatabaseInstance1:
    Type: AWS::RDS::DBInstance
    DeletionPolicy: Delete

and

  DatabaseInstance0:
    Type: AWS::RDS::DBInstance
    DeletionPolicy: Delete

Helped solve create RDS stack

This is a known issue and has been recently reported by other customers as well. The Amazon RDS service team is currently working on the fix for this but there is no ETA as to when that would be pushed.

The work-around in the meanwhile is to specify a DeletionPolicy inside the DB instance resource definition that is failing to create, with the value of 'Delete'. I will be pushing out a fix to this within the next 24 hours.

Fix published and verified.
