Resource creation timed out
Error.*creating.*timeout|context deadline exceeded|operation.*timed out
Fixes
- 1.Increase the timeout in resource timeouts block
- 2.Check cloud provider console for the resource status
- 3.Verify network connectivity from Terraform to the cloud API
- 4.Some resources take time (RDS, EKS) — add custom timeouts { create = "60m" }
