Packer Pipeline Stuck: Terminating Source AWS Instance

[Aaron Tracy]

Packer Version: 1.4.3

Hey All,

I have a packer pipeline running in Gitlab CI that builds an AMI with the amazon-ebs builder. In my packer pipeline everything seems to finish up and it stalls out on terminating source aws instance. I've turned debug logging on for troubleshooting but it didn't provide much information. Below is a redacted log of the last few steps. I'm happy to provide any other information that might be helpful. Would love a second set of eyes on this.
