tencentcloud-cvm Failed to wait for instance ready: instance(ins-xxxx) not exist

[ghost]

This issue was originally opened by @virain as hashicorp/packer#10396. It was migrated here as a result of the Packer plugin split. The original body of the issue is below.

Overview of the Issue

I used the packer to package the image. An ansible syntax error occurred. The packer stopped running and deleted the instance. After running the packer again, the prompt failed to wait for instance ready: instance (INS XXX) not exist

packer 1.6.5

Hello @virain Sorry for the long long delay due to no notifications. Is this happen now?

[virain]

Hello @likexian I'm not sure. It took too long. I forgot the problem

[likexian]

Hello @virain I am sorry about that, I have try create a image and confirm it works. If you still have any problems, please post it here.

[virain]

@likexian Now the same problem occurs again. This time, after packaging multiple images successfully, the error invalidinstanceid.notfound occurs again. It seems that CVM was not created successfully, packer could not get the instance, and I could not see the creation of CVM from Tencent cloud console.Does the API have restrictions on creating CVMs, which makes it impossible to create CVMs after creating a certain number of CVMs?

@virain not sure if it’s the same issue that I face. Try changing the instance name?

@virain not sure if it’s the same issue that I face. Try changing the instance name?

Yep,Change the instance name to create

[likexian]

Yes, try change the instance name, when there are multiple buildings, uses difference instance name.
