'aws_iam_role.default' not found

[FernandoMiguel]

I've used the default assumerole role name
OrganizationAccountAccessRole

data "aws_iam_role" "ecr" {
  name = "OrganizationAccountAccessRole"
}

and got the following error planning with TF 0.11

Error: Error running plan: 1 error(s) occurred:

* module.ecr.output.role_name: Resource 'aws_iam_role.default' not found for variable 'aws_iam_role.default.name'

@FernandoMiguel thank you for evaluating the module.

Please update to Terraform 0.11.1.
It's a known issue in Terraform 0.11.0.

They made it a fatal error in 0.11.0 to reference a resource with count=0 even if that resource is not used.
hashicorp/terraform#16726

But then switched it to warning in 0.11.1
https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/blob/v0.11.1/CHANGELOG.md

Since the new feature was already rolled out, and since development for 0.12 depends on the foundational changes that enabled it, we decided to compromise with an opt-out mechanism in 0.11.1, so those with configurations containing problematic output expressions have a means to use 0.11.1 without first fixing all modules. We understand that this is not the most ideal migration path -- if we could do this over again we would've introduced the warning in one of the 0.10 point releases -- but we hope that this compromise is acceptable so that we can continue to make progress towards 0.12.

To enable that behavior, you need to set the variable TF_WARN_OUTPUT_ERRORS=1

They mentioned they will make it an error again in 0.12, so it's a temporarily fix anyway.

But if they fix ternaries (to short-circuit and not evaluate left and right part at the same time), we can work around the issue very easily
hashicorp/hil#50

Please update to 0.11.1 and set TF_WARN_OUTPUT_ERRORS=1.

We'll close the issue for now, please let us know if that's addresses your question and if you have other questions or concerns.

i'll give it a try again.
thanks
