Unable to create MX records with "." as value #984

AlessioCasco · 2021-03-10T11:00:20Z

Hi there,
It seems that we are still unable to create MX records with "." as a value (check #References for the first issue).
This is for protecting a parked domain setting up a null MX

Terraform version

Terraform v0.14.7

provider registry.terraform.io/cloudflare/cloudflare v2.19.0

Affected resource(s)

cloudflare_record

Terraform configuration files

resource "cloudflare_record" "mx" {
  zone_id  = var.zone_id
  name     = "example.com"
  value    =  "."
  priority = 0
  type     = "MX"
  proxied  = false
}

Debug output

https://gist.github.com/AlessioCasco/be4a674cfee5922c697d79cf9b64d10d

Expected behaviour

The MX record should be created with "." as value.
I am able to do it using the Cloudflare website

Actual behaviour

Terraform exits with an error:

Error: failed to create DNS record: HTTP status 400: DNS Validation Error (1004)
  on ../../modules/cloudflare/zone/main.tf line 98, in resource "cloudflare_record" "mx":
  98: resource "cloudflare_record" "mx" {

Steps to reproduce

terraform apply

Thanks again @AlessioCasco; I just realised we shipped the fixes for cloudflare-go to understand the new data type but Terraform needs to change from d.GetOk to d.GetOkExists 🤦‍♂️. I'll cut a hotfix for this one as soon as CI is green.

jacobbednarz · 2021-03-11T00:18:06Z

Can you please try v2.19.1? I've just cut a release so it should be publicly available in the next 30-60 minutes .

AlessioCasco · 2021-03-11T00:19:59Z

Many thanks, Jacob.
Sure, I will give it a try and let you know for sure.

AlessioCasco · 2021-03-11T01:06:07Z

I'm sorry to say this, but I'm unable to plan or to apply with 2.19.1 (reverting back to 2.19.0 works).

During one apply attempt, terraform crashed with the following error:

The output is truncated, let me know if you want the whole crash.log file

gah. can you please provide your config and state so I can dig into this with a test case to match?

AlessioCasco · 2021-03-11T01:26:09Z

I'll do it first thing tomorrow, it's quite late here in London :-)
Any preferred method for sending this over privately?

Thanks again
Alessio

jacobbednarz · 2021-03-11T02:19:21Z

sure, email it over to jacob.bednarz (at) hey.com

jacobbednarz · 2021-03-11T21:23:47Z

rolling this over into #988

AlessioCasco · 2021-03-11T21:27:08Z

Sorry, Jacob, I'm going to send you the data tomorrow morning UK time.

jacobbednarz · 2021-03-11T21:35:14Z

no worries! i'll see what i can do in the meantime as we have a few others experiencing this too.

cpl · 2022-07-31T10:31:01Z

Hey @jacobbednarz, sorry to re-open this discussion, but this used to work for me until 3.14, now that I upgraded to 3.20 (with TF 1.2.6), I am getting the following error:

│ Error: either 'value' (present: false) or 'data' (present: false) must be provided
│ 
│   with module.dns-noemail["...redacted..."].cloudflare_record.mx,
│   on ../../modules/dns-noemail/20-records.tf line 23, in resource "cloudflare_record" "mx":
│   23: resource "cloudflare_record" "mx" {
│

This is the resource

resource "cloudflare_record" "mx" {
  name     = "@"
  type     = "MX"
  value    = "."
  priority = 0

  zone_id = data.cloudflare_zone.current.id
}

If I can provide more info, or if I should open a new issue, please let me know. Thanks!

dhess · 2022-08-22T22:07:37Z

We're having the same problem since upgrading. Existing records with value = "." are fine, but when we try to create new ones, they fail with the Error: either 'value' (present: false) or 'data' (present: false) must be provided error.

I created them manually in the web UI, hoping that Terraform would recognize that they'd already been created and that no state changes were required, but it claims the records don't exist and wants to create them.
