Terraform using wrong version of provider

Question

I'm trying to create a Postgres server on Azure using the azurerm_postgresql_server resource block. I've got the azurerm version pinned to 2.4.0 which means I should be up to date and can use the examples from the documentation. Instead, I'm getting missing required argument errors and seeing messages refer to missing attributes, that according to the documentation are deprecated.

So far I've tried running terraform init -upgrade in case I had previously tried a Postgres creation with an older version of the provider and it caused a cached version of the plugin but it's not had any effect. I have no idea what's wrong - if it's the code itself or the terraform setup on my machine. Simplified code snippet and error output are below, thanks!

provider "azurerm" {
  version           = "=2.4.0"
  subscription_id   = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"

  features {
    key_vault {
      purge_soft_delete_on_destroy = true
    }
  }
}

resource "azurerm_postgresql_server" "postgres" {
  name                         = "sarum-hymnal-postgresql-server"
  location                     = var.resource_group.location
  resource_group_name          = var.resource_group.name
  sku_name                     = "B_Gen4_1"
  storage_mb                   = 5120
  backup_retention_days        = 7
  geo_redundant_backup_enabled = false
  auto_grow_enabled            = false
  administrator_login          = data.azurerm_key_vault_secret.POSTGRES-USERNAME.value
  administrator_login_password = data.azurerm_key_vault_secret.POSTGRES-SECRET.value
  version                      = "11"
  ssl_enforcement_enabled      = true
  tags                         = var.resource_group.tags
}

Error: Missing required argument

  on sarum-hymnal/main.tf line 26, in resource "azurerm_postgresql_server" "postgres":
  26: resource "azurerm_postgresql_server" "postgres" {

The argument "ssl_enforcement" is required, but no definition was found.


Error: Unsupported argument

  on sarum-hymnal/main.tf line 31, in resource "azurerm_postgresql_server" "postgres":
  31:   storage_mb                   = 5120

An argument named "storage_mb" is not expected here.

by running terraform providers at the root directory I get the following output:

 .
 ├── provider.azurerm =2.4.0
 ├── module.early-modern-ballot
 │   └── provider.azurerm (inherited)
 ├── module.hands-on-reading

Can you show the version of the azurerm provider in the root config directory? — Matt Schuchard

You could upgrade your terraform version to v0.12 and the version of the azurerm provider to version = ">=2.7". This works on my side.

See v2.0 of the AzureRM Provider and Upgrading to Terraform v0.12 for more details.
