Debug Output

GitHub Gist

Expected Behavior

The AWS Backup vault should be found by terraform plan.

Actual Behavior

The following error occurs:

│ Error: error reading Backup Vault (backup): InvalidSignatureException: 
│       status code: 403, request id: e6ef79ce-5dad-4ca4-855c-3e765419fab7
...

Steps to Reproduce

1. Run terraform apply with the backup endpoint line commented to create the backup vault resource.
2. Uncomment the backup endpoint line and run terraform plan.

Important Factoids

We are using FIPS enabled endpoints for services.

The command aws backup describe-backup-vault --backup-vault-name jenkins --endpoint-url https://backup-fips.us-gov-west-1.amazonaws.com finds the vault, though the provider does not using the same FIPS endpoint.

I see that you're using version 3.71 of the AWS Provider, which was released on 6 January 2022. Version 4.0, released 10 February 2022, had enhancements to FIPS support. Have you tried this with a more up-to-date version of the provider?

Please be aware of the upgrade guide when trying with version 4.x
