Terraform destroy doesn't work

[VincenzoDo]

Hello,

as the title states I'm not able to destroy a VM using the plugin. No log output is written to vra-terraform.log during the destroy operation, so I enabled terraform debug logging which is attached here. tflog.txt

TF file:

provider "vra7" {
  username = "${var.vra_username}"
  password = "${var.vra_password}"
  tenant   = "${var.vra_tenant}"
  host     = "${var.vra_host}"
  insecure = "true"

}

resource "vra7_resource" "example_machine1" {
   catalog_name = "base"
   businessgroup_id = "dfaa1892-f422-425f-99c6-12345678"

   resource_configuration = {
        base.cpu = "2"
    base.memory = "2048"
        base.Linux.Hostname = "myvm"
        base.Linux.RootPassword = "mypassword"
        base.VirtualMachine.Network0.Name = "mynetwork"
     }

}

Expected Behavior

The VM gets destoryed

Actual Behavior

No action is performed on the VM and the state is cleared of any info about it so no other commands can be executed.

@VincenzoDo Can you please check and confirm that this is not the case as mentioned in the log?

• vra7_resource.example_machine1: possibly resource got deleted outside terraform

[VincenzoDo]

Sure, I can confirm the VM exists and was not deleted previously.

@VincenzoDo Can you also verify if Destroy Deployment action is enabled for in entitlement? I could reproduce this when my Destroy Deployment action is not added in entitlement.

[VincenzoDo]

@Prativa20 The destroy deployment action is enabled, I can destroy the deployment from the UI.

[Prativa20]

@VincenzoDo I could not reproduce it and the console logs here are also not very useful. I will create a PR with some more debug logs. And you can with the latest code.

[VincenzoDo]

@Prativa20 Ok, I will wait for the PR

[Prativa20]

@VincenzoDo Can you try with the latest code? I have added debug logs as part of #100 Please attach the vra-terraform.log file. Thanks!

[VincenzoDo]

@Prativa20 destroy action still fails, here you can find the log for the destroy part: tflog_destroy.txt

[Prativa20]

@VincenzoDo The log says that the destroy action template required for deleting the resource is not available. And that is the reason destroy is failing. I could reproduce this only when Destroy Machine action is not enabled in the entitlement. But as you mentioned, that it is not the case with your setup. I will open a PR to check in the first place if a destroy is allowed on the resource. If yes, will fetch the template. Will update the issue when the code is merged.

Thanks, Prativa

@VincenzoDo I have created a PR for this which is in review #103

[VincenzoDo]

@Prativa20 I've tested the PR, and get the following when I try to destroy: "* vra7_resource.example_machine1: The deployment base-16198567 cannot be destroyed, your entitlement has no Destroy Deployment action enabled" but as you can see from this screenshot I have the destroy deployment action enabled:

@VincenzoDo I couldn't reproduce this in my environment. We can have a call to see what is going on.
