The storage account named ffeslzstates is already taken #13

Closed gareththegeek closed 3 years ago

gareththegeek commented 3 years ago

When deploying terraform bootstrap, I receive the following error because a previous deployment has taken the name ffeslzstates.

The name should probably include a pseudo-random element.

│ Error: creating Azure Storage Account "ffeslzstates": storage.AccountsClient#Create: Failure sending request: StatusCode=0 -- Original Error: autorest/azure: Service returned an error.

Just realised this is a variable so will specify manually

Workaround is to modify the deploy.sh file to specify new values for the storage account, container registry and key vault names. Would be nice to either pseudo-randomly generate names or make it easier to provide as parameters and update documentation.

terraform plan -var state_sa_name="ffeslzstatesgjw" -var shared_acr_name="ffeslzacrgjw" -var shared_keyvault_name="ffeslzkvgjw" -out=tfplan $1
