Hi, Can you please list down some common error we face while working with Terraform and Jenkins in real time.

[@DevOpsCoach]

We can’t generalize that. Terraform State file need to be kept in a remote place. You may have terraform state file locked error when some errors happen during terraform apply

[@bhakta_rg]

Great video sir. What is the use of dynamoDB here? If you could briefly explain?

[@DevOpsCoach]

DynamoDB is used for exclusive locking to prevent concurrent executions from modifying the same state simultaneously.

is it neccessary to have linux installed in our system to run this? because in my windows built in node , the sh is not recognising terraform init command

[@DevOpsCoach]

you can do it by installing Git or Cygwin.. check the below link

Where did you do the authentication for AWS and Jenkins as in access and secret keys?

[@DevOpsCoach]

You can use IAM role that’s is more preferred as I have installed on Jenkins running on aws itself
