Create and Use Terraform Modules Requirements not clear

[moustafaroushdy1]

Terraform Level 4, Task 3 is failing because the name of the vpc is not correct while the vpc name is not stated in the lab requirements.

Also, tried this task multiple times, each time it’s stuck in “… Still creating”.
Logs show continues calls to “Action=DescribeInstanceCreditSpecification”

Hi @Mederbek @moustafaroushdy1

I was able to complete the task using the main.tf file below. Please ensure that it is applied in both the Dev and Prod workspaces.

# Define locals for name prefix and default tags
locals {
  name_prefix  = "xfusion-${terraform.workspace}"
  default_tags = {
    Project     = "xfusion"
    Environment = terraform.workspace
  }
}

# Network module
module "network" {
  source          = "./modules/network"
  KKE_NAME_PREFIX = local.name_prefix
  KKE_VPC_CIDR    = var.KKE_VPC_CIDR
  KKE_TAGS        = local.default_tags
}

# Compute module
module "compute" {
  source           = "./modules/compute"
  KKE_NAME_PREFIX  = local.name_prefix
  KKE_SUBNET_ID    = module.network.kke_subnet_id
  KKE_INSTANCE_TYPE = var.KKE_INSTANCE_TYPE
  KKE_TAGS         = local.default_tags
}

I find task objectives for this task very vague:

I tried ec2 name as “devops-dev-ec2”, “devops-dev”, still not able to pass it.
does it wants as output ec2 name (which we output from tag[Name]), or ec2 id?

Hi @Mederbek

It should be devops-dev-instance based on the task information.

Here is the main.tf of compute module:

resource "aws_instance" "this" {
  ami           = "ami-0c94855ba95c71c99"
  instance_type = var.KKE_INSTANCE_TYPE
  subnet_id     = var.KKE_SUBNET_ID

  tags = merge(var.KKE_TAGS, {
    Name = "${var.KKE_NAME_PREFIX}-instance"
  })
}

I am having issue with this task but with different error:

Hi @Cyber_Node99

Did you try the solution above? If you still can’t pass the validation, please share your answer here in a code block.

[Cyber_Node99]

After reviewing carefully and comparing this solution, i found i was passing KKE_VPC_CIDR in tfvars. However, the requirement only needed KKE_INSTANCE_TYPE. After removing it, the validation is successful.
