Terraform: cloud-config.yaml script not running on initial EC2 boot

I've created a cloudinit script called "cloud-config.yaml". I want to have ths script executed for each EC2 instance that is launched from my Terraformm launch configuration definition. Everything works except the cloudinit script does not execute on the newly created instances. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong. Any help on where I should look would be appreciated.



Below are the snippets of my code:



#cloud-config

#Enable byobu by default for all system users
byobu_by_default: system

# Update apt database on first boot
# (ie run apt-get update)
#
# Default: true
#
apt_update: false

# Upgrade the instance on first boot
# (ie run apt-get upgrade)
#
# Default: false
#
apt_upgrade: true

#Create user accounts
users:
- name: demo
- sudo: ['ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL']
- groups: sudo
- shell: /bin/bash

# Install additional packages on first boot
#
# Default: none
#
# if packages are specified, this apt_update will be set to true
#
packages:
- apache2
- mariadb-client
- software-properties-common
- php
- libapache2-mod-php
- php-mysql
- curl
- wget
- awscli

# Run additional commands on first boot
runcmd:
- ufw disable
- aws s3 sync s3://terraform-web-files/ /var/www/html --recursive


/**************************************************************************
PUBLIC Launch Configuration
***************************************************************************/

//Define the Launch Configuration
resource "aws_launch_configuration" "terraform-public-lc"
image_id = "$var.ami"
instance_type = "$var.instance_type"
security_groups = ["$aws_security_group.tf-public-sg.id"]
key_name = "$var.key_name"
associate_public_ip_address = true

user_data = "$path.module/../../../../Development/services/web-app/cloud-config.yaml"

lifecycle
create_before_destroy = true

  • Was the error something another user might find? If so you should consider self answering so others might be able to solve the same problem at a later date.
