Hi @likithsai004

Ensure you name your Terraform file as main.tf in the required directory: /home/bob/terraform.

Your config looks fine, except for security_groups in the aws_instance resource block. That needs to be vpc_security_group_ids; that’s the one to use when creating an EC2 instance within a VPC.
