Debug Output

Crash Output

Expected Behavior

What should have happened?
I removed some of my vsphere_virtual_machine configuration to reduce the amount of code in this post. Ultimately, I want all VMs to run my domain_join script.

Actual Behavior

What actually happened?
I receive an error stating that the default_IP_address attribute does not exist and therefore nothing gets passed

Steps to Reproduce

Please list the full steps required to reproduce the issue, for example:

1. terraform init
2. terraform apply

null_resource.domain_join[1]: Creating...

Error: Unsupported attribute: This object does not have an attribute named "default_ip_address".

Additional Context

Are there anything atypical about your situation that we should know? For example: is Terraform running in a wrapper script or in a CI system? Are you passing any unusual command line options or environment variables to opt-in to non-default behavior?

This issue has been automatically migrated to hashicorp/terraform-provider-vsphere#823 because it looks like an issue with that provider. If you believe this is not an issue with the provider, please reply to hashicorp/terraform-provider-vsphere#823.

How did this issue get closed if it just points to the same exact issue that never got a response?

[teamterraform]

Hi @sanzen193,

Issues with providers are automatically moved to the correct repo where they can resolved, and closed in the Terraform repo.

On further inspection however, this isn't an issue with Azure specifically, and we can reopen it here for investigation.

[teamterraform]

We have an issue open with a full description of the behavior already at #22562 .
Moving further discussion over there.

I'm going to lock this issue because it has been closed for 30 days ⏳. This helps our maintainers find and focus on the active issues.

If you have found a problem that seems similar to this, please open a new issue and complete the issue template so we can capture all the details necessary to investigate further.
