Debug Output

I was caught by surprise that this error only generates a Plugin did not respond answer.

Steps to Reproduce

Unsure, for certain runs this is the result while in other situations it works.

We have a cluster with a lot of CRDs, it could be that the list is too exhaustive and a timeout is somewhere causing this to happen
We were running our Terraform plan/apply on very small runners (0.5 vCPU, 1GiB RAM), after upgrading to larger sized runners (1 vCPU, 2GiB RAM) the error seems gone!

Expected Behavior

Consistent passing results or feedback about the issue at hand

Actual Behavior

Inconsistent results, most of the time failing, no feedback on the causing issue

Important Factoids

ROSA (RHOS on AWS)
GitLab CI

I'm inclined to close this issue, as the underlying solution is available. It would be nice though to have a notification of the provider being memory deprived instead of just being killed, so I leave this open for @alexsomesan to judge whether we could somehow improve the error messaging

BBBmau commented 1 month ago

From Triage: Their may be a way to intercept the kill call regarding memory usage. Would require some investigation.

Hi @BBBmau 👋

Can you point me a bit in which direction to look? I have a bit of experience contributing to the Terraform providers for AWS and Azure, a pointer could help me do a bit of the work for you.
