Remove lock from Azure blob storage

[Andrew Hodgson]

Hi,

 

Has anyone had luck in deleting a Terraform lock from an Azure storage account?  State file is stored there.

 

terraform force-unlock 351e71b2-7984-9594-f8e0-1ba789488aa2

Do you really want to force-unlock?

  Terraform will remove the lock on the remote state.

  This will allow local Terraform commands to modify this state, even though it

  may be still be in use. Only 'yes' will be accepted to confirm.

 

  Enter a value: yes

 

Failed to unlock state: failed to delete lock info from metadata: storage: service returned error: StatusCode=412, ErrorCode=LeaseIdMissing, ErrorMessage=There is currently a lease on the blob and no lease ID was specified in the request.

Hi did you solve this? I have same issue

[Ufuk Altin]

I did a workaround

1. backup the tfstate file in blob container (remember file name)

2. delete blob container (remember container name)

3. wait a while (because azure is deleting the container and a new one with same name can not be created)

4. create container with same name

5. upload tfstate file into blob container
