App Id

Region

us-east-1

Amplify Console feature

Backend builds, E2E tests, Previews

Describe the bug

Amplify backend build doesn't find an existing environment and throws an AlreadyExistsException exception. I can't do subsequent builds in Previews and now it even popped on a feature branch, since I alternated to that from Previews.

Expected behavior

Find the existing environment, namely the environment that was created on the initial deployment.

Reproduction steps

It seems intermittent with the branch autodetection feature, but with Previews it happens consistently and it's probably the same bug.

Enable Previews
Create a Pull Request
Verify the first build is successful
Push another commit and watch the build fail

I initially started this issue: #2074, but for the sake of deduplicating I closed it in favor of this, which is more explicit. Unfortunately, there's at least 4-5 more related issues: https://github.com/aws-amplify/amplify-console/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+environment+exist+.

For the time being, I worked around it by ditching envCache --get stackInfo and getting the stack info through AWS CLI.

Grab amplifyPush.sh: https://github.com/aws-amplify/amplify-console/blob/master/scripts/amplifyPush.sh and place it at the root of your app.
Update amplify.yml to use ./amplifyPush.sh instead of the default amplifyPush and install jq.

backend:
  phases:
    preBuild:
      commands:
        - yum update --assumeyes
        - yum install --assumeyes jq
    build:
      commands:
        - '# Execute Amplify CLI with the helper script'
        - chmod u+x ./amplifyPush.sh
        - ./amplifyPush.sh --simple

Remove lines 119-120 and replace with the following snippet:

# https://docs.amplify.aws/cli/teams/commands#import-an-environment
echo "# Getting Amplify CLI Cloud-Formation stack info from environment cache"
BACKEND_ENV="$(aws amplify get-backend-environment --app-id ${AWS_APP_ID} --environment-name ${ENV} || true)"
if [[ ${BACKEND_ENV} ]];
then
    STACKNAME="$(echo ${BACKEND_ENV} | jq --raw-output '.backendEnvironment.stackName')"
    STACKINFO=$(aws cloudformation describe-stacks --stack-name ${STACKNAME} | jq '.Stacks[0]')
    STACKINFO=$(echo ${STACKINFO} | jq '.Outputs | reduce .[] as $item ({}; .[$item.OutputKey] = $item.OutputValue)')
    STACKINFO="{\
        \"awscloudformation\":$STACKINFO\
    }"
fi
export STACKINFO

I found out envCache is actually working, but it has a fatal bug, as it lowercases the key that's passed to it, therefore when it tries to get the default variable (envCache --get stackInfo), it fails! Not only that, it seems the default variable name gets overridden at an empty value, rendering it useless. It's such a critical issue that it should be prioritised ASAP.
