Best guess is that you don’t actually have a “default” VPC in whatever region you’re trying to create this security group. The “default” VPC has special qualities. YMMV, but I’ve found that just explicitly defining the VPC is the easiest thing to do. If you haven’t already defined the VPC with aws_vpc, use a data resource to get the ID.
