Debug Output

module.development.azurerm_private_endpoint.development: Creating... module.development.azurerm_private_endpoint.development: Still creating... [10s elapsed]

Error: waiting for creation of Private Endpoint "development-kubernetes-endpoint" (Resource Group "DEVELOPMENT"): Code="InternalServerError" Message="An error occurred." Details=[]

Expected Behavior

Create and wait for creation to complete of endpoint

Actual Behavior

Terraform exits with a internal server error from azure, but the resources still create in azure. If you run apply again it will will say the resource already exists...

module.development.azurerm_private_endpoint.development: Creating...

Error: A resource with the ID "/subscriptions/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/resourceGroups/DEVELOPMENT/providers/Microsoft.Network/privateEndpoints/development-kubernetes-endpoint" already exists - to be managed via Terraform this resource needs to be imported into the State. Please see the resource documentation for "azurerm_private_endpoint" for more information.

Any news on this? Is there more information about the upstream issue? (a link for example?)

I have a similar issue. Error: waiting for creation of Private Endpoint "pe-use-00021219-dv" (Resource Group "testrgp"): Code="InternalServerError" Message="An error occurred." Details=[]

When I rerun the pipeline it says a resource already exist.
