Container Definition error when deploying an app and fluentbit container

[sfiguereo]

Description

The module gives and error when deploying container definition with variables and secrets for two containers, and app and a fluentbit container.
Error: Invalid for_each argument on .terraform/modules/account_microservice.app_ecs/modules/service/main.tf line 531, in module "container_definition": for_each = { for k, v in var.container_definitions : k => v if local.create_task_definition && try(v.create, true) } local.create_task_definition is true var.container_definitions will be known only after apply The "for_each" map includes keys derived from resource attributes that cannot be determined until apply, and so Terraform cannot determine the full set of keys that will identify the instances of this resource.

When working with unknown values in for_each, it's better to define the map keys statically in your configuration and place apply-time results only in the map values.

Alternatively, you could use the -target planning option to first apply only the resources that the for_each value depends on, and then apply a second time to fully converge.

When managing the task and container definitions outside the module, the problem is:

Error: Provider produced inconsistent final plan When expanding the plan for module.account_service.aws_ecs_task_definition.app to include new values learned so far during apply, provider "registry.terraform.io/hashicorp/aws" produced an invalid new value for .container_definitions: was cty.StringVal(""), but now cty.StringVal("[{\"Command\":[\"/bin/sh\",\"-c\",\"/home/node/entrypoint.sh\"],\"Cpu\":1024,\"CredentialSpecs\":null,\"DependsOn\":null,\"DisableNetworking\":null,\"DnsSearchDomains\":null,\"DnsServers\":null,\"DockerLabels\":null,\"DockerSecurityOptions\":null,\"EntryPoint\":null,\"Environment\":[{\"Name\":\"APP_NAME\",\"Value\":\"account\"},{\"Name\":\"AWS_ORGANIZATION_ARN\",\"Value\":\"arn:aws:organizations::137452182988:organization/o-exlib790lh\"},{\"Name\":\"AWS_ORGANIZATION_MASTER_ACCOUNT_ID\",\"Value\":\"137452182988\"},{\"Name\":\"AWS_REGION\",\"Value\":\"us-east-1\"},{\"Name\":\"BRANCH_IO_URL\",\"Value\":\"https://api2.branch.io/v1/url\"},{\"Name\":\"DATABASE_HOST\",\"Value\":\"accountdb.cmba1foxdib9.us-east-1.rds.amazonaws.com\"},{\"Name\":\"DATABASE_NAME\",\"Value\":\"accountdb\"},{\"Name\":\"DATABASE_PORT\",\"Value\":\"5432\"},{\"Name\":\"DATABASE_SCHEMA\",\"Value\":\"account\"},{\"Name\":\"DATABASE_USER\",\"Value\":\"stagewoodAdmin\"},{\"Name\":\"FIREBASE_DATABASE_URL\",\"Value\":\"https://dtyket-5b4f1-default-rtdb.firebaseio.com\"},{\"Name\":\"FIREBASE_PROJECT_ID\",\"Value\":\"dtyket-5b4f1\"},{\"Name\":\"FIREHOSE_NAME\",\"Value\":\"ctrldev-DeliveryStream\"},{\"Name\":\"FIREHOSE_ROLE_ARN_TO_ASSUME\",\"Value\":\"arn:aws:iam::905418284744:role/FirehoseRole\"},{\"Name\":\"PORT\",\"Value\":\"3010\"},{\"Name\":\"RABBITMQ_USERNAME\",\"Value\":\"stagewoodAdmin\"}],\"EnvironmentFiles\":null,\"Essential\":true,\"ExtraHosts\":null,\"FirelensConfiguration\":null,\"HealthCheck\":null,\"Hostname\":null,\"Image\":\"591947861756.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/ssodev-account-app:latest\",\"Interactive\":false,\"Links\":null,\"LinuxParameters\":null,\"LogConfiguration\":null,\"Memory\":8192,\"MemoryReservation\":null,\"MountPoints\":null,\"Name\":\"account\",\"PortMappings\":null,\"Privileged\":false,\"PseudoTerminal\":false,\"ReadonlyRootFilesystem\":null,\"RepositoryCredentials\":null,\"ResourceRequirements\":null,\"Secrets\":[{\"Name\":\"BRANCH_KEY\",\"ValueFrom\":\"arn:aws:ssm:us-east-1:591947861756:parameter/ecs/account/branch_key\"},{\"Name\":\"DATABASE_PASSWORD\",\"ValueFrom\":\"arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-east-1:591947861756:secret:rds!db-d8d4bc55-bc6a-4160-aa84-d787178c1924-O0cbWt\"},{\"Name\":\"FIREBASE_CLIENT_EMAIL\",\"ValueFrom\":\"arn:aws:ssm:us-east-1:591947861756:parameter/ecs/account/firebase_client_email\"},{\"Name\":\"FIREBASE_PRIVATE_KEY\",\"ValueFrom\":\"arn:aws:ssm:us-east-1:591947861756:parameter/ecs/account/firebase_private_key\"},{\"Name\":\"RABBITMQ_PASSWORD\",\"ValueFrom\":\"arn:aws:secretsmanager:us-east-1:905418284744:secret:central-broker/stagewoodAdmin_password-AiixaC\"}],\"StartTimeout\":30,\"StopTimeout\":120,\"SystemControls\":null,\"Ulimits\":null,\"User\":\"0\",\"VolumesFrom\":null,\"WorkingDirectory\":null},{\"Command\":null,\"Cpu\":512,\"CredentialSpecs\":null,\"DependsOn\":null,\"DisableNetworking\":null,\"DnsSearchDomains\":null,\"DnsServers\":null,\"DockerLabels\":null,\"DockerSecurityOptions\":null,\"EntryPoint\":null,\"Environment\":[{\"Name\":\"APP_NAME\",\"Value\":\"account\"},{\"Name\":\"AWS_REGION\",\"Value\":\"us-east-1\"},{\"Name\":\"FIREHOSE_NAME\",\"Value\":\"ctrldev-DeliveryStream\"},{\"Name\":\"FIREHOSE_ROLE_ARN_TO_ASSUME\",\"Value\":\"arn:aws:iam::905418284744:role/FirehoseRole\"}],\"EnvironmentFiles\":null,\"Essential\":true,\"ExtraHosts\":null,\"FirelensConfiguration\":null,\"HealthCheck\":null,\"Hostname\":null,\"Image\":\"176238661673.dkr.ecr.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/fluent-bit:latest\",\"Interactive\":false,\"Links\":null,\"LinuxParameters\":null,\"LogConfiguration\":null,\"Memory\":1024,\"MemoryReservation\":null,\"MountPoints\":null,\"Name\":\"fluent-bit\",\"PortMappings\":null,\"Privileged\":false,\"PseudoTerminal\":false,\"ReadonlyRootFilesystem\":null,\"RepositoryCredentials\":null,\"ResourceRequirements\":null,\"Secrets\":null,\"StartTimeout\":30,\"StopTimeout\":120,\"SystemControls\":null,\"Ulimits\":null,\"User\":\"0\",\"VolumesFrom\":null,\"WorkingDirectory\":null}]").

This is a bug in the provider, which should be reported in the provider's own issue tracker.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

yes yes just builded the module and have weeks trying to find solution to the errors. ## Expected behavior my ecs to build without errors ## Actual behavior it wont let me deploy ### Terminal Output Screenshot(s)

I found the problem on my solution. I was using data resources to fetch in values for environmental variables. The module did not reconized those values as available when deployment. Once I changed the values to set variables the module was able to proceed without the error. Hope this help some other facing the same issue.

looks like this isn't a module error so closing for now
