Question

Hi Guys,

I am trying to destroy the environment created using Terraform. But I am getting this error.

error deleting S3 Bucket (example11225588): BucketNotEmpty: The bucket you tried to delete is not empty                  status code: 409, request id: 324F1FD3B48BDF9C, host id: U2wX45co+lfNj7Q0gJ5McSrkFE8gj3K9BSS90Wz/baRClLFBaeQ260bvHCf7JPCbNSGahTEph4o=  

Can anyone help me how to resolve this error?

Hi@akhtar,

Your bucket is mounted to a folder. So you have to detach your folder first. In your Terraform code, you can use force_detach=true, it will detach your file forcefully.

Do you mean force_destroy? I can't find any documentation regarding force_detach
