I'm setting up aws-amplify to my project. I am facing a problem in amplify push when I configured for the first time it worked fine. now i changed the repository since i had to do sub-tree from the old repo.
Now when i do amplify push i get
Resource is not in the state stackUpdateComplete
⠸ Updating resources in the cloud. This may take a few minutes...Error updating cloudformation stack
⠸ Updating resources in the cloud. This may take a few minutes...
Following resources failed
✖ An error occurred when pushing the resources to the cloud
Resource is not in the state stackUpdateComplete
An error occured during the push operation: Resource is not in the state stackUpdateComplete
Just to give some background about this error - what does Resource is not in the state stackUpdateComplete actually mean?
Well basically Amplify is telling you that one of the stacks in your app did not deploy correctly, but it doesn't know why (which is remarkably unhelpful, but in fairness it's deploying a lot of potentially complex resources).
This can make diagnosing and fixing the issue really problematic, so I've compiled this kind of mental checklist that I go through to fix it. Each of the techniques will work some of the time, but I don't think there are any that will work all of the time. This list is not intended to help you diagnose what causes this issue, it's literally just designed to get you back up and running.
The fast options (will solve most problems)
Try running amplify push --iterative-rollback. It's supposed to roll your environment back to the last successful deployment, but tbh it rarely works.
Try running amplify push --force. Although counter-intuitive, this is actually a rollback method. It basically does what you think --iterative-rollback will do, but works more frequently.
In the AWS console, go to the deployment bucket for your environment (the bucket will be named amplify-${project_name}-${environment_name}-${some_random_numbers}-deployment). If there is a file called deployment-state.json, delete it and try amplify push again from the CLI.
If you are working in a team of more than one developer, or have your environment in several different repos locally, or across multiple different machines, your amplify/team-provider-info.json file might be out of sync. Usually this is caused by the environment variable(s) in an Amplify Lambda function being set in one of the files but not in another. The resolution will depend on how out of sync these files are, but you can normally just copy the contents of the last working team-provider-info.json file across to the other repo (from where the deployment is failing) and run the deployment again. However, if you've got multiple devs/machines/repos, you might be better off diffing the files and checking where the differences are.
The slow option (production-friendly)
Hopefully you haven't got this far, but at this point I'd recommend you open a ticket in the amplify-cli GitHub with as much info as you can. They tend to respond in 1-2 working days.
If you're pre-production, or you're having issues with a non-production environment, you could also try cloning the backend environment in the Amplify console, and seeing if you can get the stack working from there. If so, then you can push the fixed deployment back to the previous env (if you want to) using amplify env checkout ${your_old_env_name} and then amplify push.
The complex option (solves more intricate problems with your stack)
If none of the above work (or you don't have time to wait for a response on a GitHub issue), head over to CloudFormation in the AWS console and search for the part of your stack that is erroring. There's a few different ways to do this:
Check the CLI output for your last push and find the item whose status is something other than UPDATE_COMPLETE. You can copy the name of the stack and search for it in CloudFormation.
Search CloudFormation for your environment name, click on any of the resulting stacks, click the link under Parent stack, repeat until you find a stack with no parent. You are now in the root stack of your deployment, there are two ways to find your erroring stack from here:
Click on the Resources tab and find one with something red in the status column. Select the stack from this row.
Click on the Events tab and find one with something red in the status column. Select the stack from this row.
Once you've found the broken stack, click the Stack actions button and select Detect drift from the dropdown menu.
Click the Stack actions button again and select View drift results from the dropdown menu.
In the Resource drift results page, you'll see a list of resources in the stack. If any of them show DRIFTED in the Drift status column, select the radio button to the left of that item and then click the View drift details button. The drift details will be displayed side by side, git-style, on the next page. You can also click the checkbox(es) in the list above to highlight the drift change(s). Keep the current page open, you'll need it later.
Fixing the drift will depend on what it is - it's usually something in an IAM policy that's changed, you can fix this directly in the console. Sometimes it's a missing environment variable on a Lambda function, which you're better off fixing in the CLI (in which case you would need to run amplify push again and wait for the build to complete in order for the fix to be deployed to your environment).
Once you've fixed the drift, you can click the orange Detect stack drift button at the top of the page and it will update. Hopefully you've solved the problem.
GraphQL bonus round (completely bananas DDB drift)
Another fun thing that Amplify does from time-to-time is to (seemingly spontaneously) change the server-side encryption setting on the definition of some or all of your DynamoDB tables without you even touching it. This is by far and away the most bizarre Amplify error I've encountered (and that's saying something)!
I have a sort-of fix for this, which is to open amplify/backend/api/${your_api_name}/parameters.json and change the DynamoDBEnableServerSideEncryption setting from false to true, save it, then run amplify push. This will fail. But it's fine, because then you just reverse the change (set it back to false), save it, push again and voila! I still cannot for the life of me understand how or why this happens.
I said it's a sort-of fix, and that's because you'll still see drift for the stacks that deploy the affected tables in CloudFormation. This goes away after a while. Again, I have no idea how or why.
The nuclear option (DO NOT USE IN PRODUCTION)
Obviously this one comes with a huge disclaimer: don't do this in production. If working with any kind of DB, you will lose the data.
You can make backups of everything and then start to remove the problematic resources one at a time, with an amplify push in between each one, until the stack build successfully. Once it's built, you can start adding your resources back in.
Hopefully this helps someone, please feel free to suggest edits or other solutions.
This worked for me:
$ amplify update auth
Choose the option “Yes, use default configuration” (uses the Cognito Identitypool).
Then:
$ amplify push
Another reason can be this
The issue is tied to the selection of this option - Select the authentication/authorization services that you want to use: User Sign-Up & Sign-In only (Best used with a cloud API only) which creates just the UserPool and not the IdentityPool which the rootstack is looking for. It's a bug and we'll fix that.
To unblock, for just the first question, you could select - ❯ User
Sign-Up, Sign-In, connected with AWS IAM controls (Enables per-user
Storage features for images or other content, Analytics, and more)
which would create a user pool as well as as the identity pool and
then choose any of the other configurations that you've mentioned
above.
I debugged my AWS Amplify CLI push error by doing the following:
Open CloudFormation
Find parent stack with name such as: amplify-companyName-envName-123456
Click Events tab
Scroll down until you find UPDATE_FAILED, which should give you a detailed description of why it failed. e.g. The following resource(s) failed to create: ...
Alternatively (to find parent stack):
Navigate to environment in AWS Amplify site, Overview tab
Click View in CloudFormation
Under Stack info tab, click link for Parent stack
On the parent page, click Events tab
You can try as below
First do
amplify env checkout {environment} and then
amplify push
The solution is:
a. Go to the s3 bucket containing project settings.
b. locate deployment-state.json file in root folder and delete it.
c. amplify push
I got this after making some modifications to my GraphQL schema. I adjusted the way I was making #connection directives on a few tables. I was able to fix this by following these steps:-
Make a backup copy of your new schema that you're trying to push
Run amplify pull to restore your local to be in sync with your backend in the cloud.
Once that completes, you should have the local synced to the cloud and amplify push should work without flaws because it is synced to the cloud and there should be no updates.
Copy over the new schema onto the pulled schema and try running the amplify push once more to see if it works.
If it doesn't work, undo the overwrite to the pulled schema and compare what is different between the pulled schema and the updated schema that you backed up. Do a line by line diffcheck and see what has changed and try to push the changes one by one to see where it is failing. I think it is wiser to not push too many changes to the schema at once. Do it one by one so that you can troubleshoot more easily. If you do have other issues, then it should be unrelated to the one highlighted in this question, because the pulling should solve this particular issue.
In my case the issue was due to multiple #connections referring to GSI, which were not getting removed and added correctly when I do the amplify push api.
I was able to resolve this by amplify pull then, comment off the #connection then the GSI linked to connection then, add each new changes manually, but there was trouble in GSI getting linked again because the local update considered the GSI already removed but in cloud it seems to be retained, and I got error that a GSI is being added which was already in cloud. So I renamed the model name, so it got recreated to new tables in dynamoDB then I reverted it back to the correct name. This is ideal for dev environment which has no much impact.
But of course it ate up most of my time, but it did fix my issue.
In my case it was an issue when switching between amplify env (checkout), the error was not clear but this is what I did to fix it without having to "clear" api and lose the whole database :
Delete the existing API Key by setting the "CreateAPIKey" to "0" in the "amplify/backend/api//parameters.json" then save file and execute "amplify push".
once done, do the same process with "CreateAPIKey" to "1" then "amplify push".
This fixed my issue.
This worked for me
amplify remove storage
And, then
amplify add storage
Then, again
amplify push
As after amplify add storage I mistakenly choose Y to Do you want to add a Lambda Trigger for your S3 Bucket?
I didn't have any Lamda function and also I didn't have anything in my bucket.
In my opinion, these kind of problems always related to 3rd party auth.
Amplify update auth,
then update auth flow the id and secret of 3rd party.
Then push.
It will fix the problem
It's look like a conflict between backend and local
The only thing that work for me is backing up the local schema and initiating the amplify pulling command.
Then use the back up schema file and initial the amplify push.
In most of case updates in the following file must be set manually (for Android):
app/src/main/res/raw/amplifyconfiguration.json
As mentioned by others in this thread - the issue comes from one of the resources that you updated locally.
Check which ones did you modify:
$ amplify status
Then remove and add it again, followed by push. The Api is known not to work with updates right now, so you must remove it if you've changed it locally:
$ amplify api remove YourAPIName
$ amplify api add
$ amplify push
Background:
I'm quite new to App Maker, but have been involved in programming/IT for over 2 decades.
I have created an App Maker app, which works fine. It is deployed, and functions internally in our organization.
It accesses a Team Drive spreadsheet, makes modifications to it based on input criteria, and sends an email out to a hardcoded user. It uses no external GCP database or other resource.
The OAuth scopes it requires are:
admin.directory.user.readonly
drive.readonly
script.send_mail
spreadsheets
userinfo.email
Problem:
I can no longer preview the app.
When I click on "Preview" at the top right, a new tab opens and a spinning wheels seems to indicate that the preview is loading. Within about 4 seconds, the tab closes and the original tab (with the scripts, UI etc) gives a "Previewing failed. Dismiss" error in the bottom centre.
I am both able to deploy the exact same code/UI/etc, as well as run it without issue.
I do not know what I changed, since being able to preview the app, but cannot seem to regress to that state.
What I've tried:
Admittedly not much, as I don't know where to look. I'm rather certain that there must be some setting somewhere, but for all my googling, I've come up empty.
This can't be a client/server script or other syntax issue, as otherwise the deployment also wouldn't work.
With a more meaningful error, I would know where to look.
Expected Result:
Obviously, I should be able to preview the app if it is deployable.
Following #Morfinismo's comment, I contacted G Suite Support; my matter was escalated to the API Team.
I was asked by Google Cloud Support ("Support") to provide network traffic info using FiddlerCap. As I am on a linux machine and FiddlerCap is a windows application, I suggested alternatives (eg:Wireshark). It was eventually not required and never provided.
I noticed that on the Google scripts page, when accessing the project in question selecting "Preview", it was missing the following OAuth:
https://www.googleapis.com/auth/admin.directory.user.readonly
The functioning deployed version did not have this missing.
Still in the Preview, I selected "Stackdriver (logs)", which gave me an error that the project had been deleted. The actual wording was:
Access forbidden
Project XXXX is shut down and scheduled to be deleted. A project owner can cancel the shutdown on the projects list page.
Clicking on the link in the error "Go to projects list page" brought me to a page with the title "Resources pending deletion", which did not load a list of projects (but otherwise fully loaded) and would display the spinning wheel in perpetuity. I attempted this multiple times, including leaving it overnight once.
Support presumed that I had deleted the GCP project, although I honestly don't/didn't think I had. I also confirmed that creating new previews did not work, but creating new deployments did. I also confirm(ed) that this particular App Maker app did not require (eg) a GCP SQL database.
Support pointed me toward the following website: Google undelete project and I was asked to follow these steps (copy-pasted here):
a. For projectId, enter your project ID. From the screenshot you provided, this is "XXX (redacted)" (the quotes are just to emphasise the project ID, you shouldn't enter them.
b. Click EXECUTE.
c. You'll be prompted to grant authorisation, which may be preceded by a prompt to choose your admin account. Please do so.
d. You should receive a 200 response, with an empty body, that is {}.
e. Attempt to access the project via Project link (with the actual project id redacted here).
The above yielded some strange behaviour:
a. undeleteing the project gave it a different name that the App Maker app;
b. I notice that I had 3 other projects all called correctly (the App Maker app name).
c. When asked to reauthorize, I was provided with yet another project name ("Untitled project"), which was different from the correct one and different from the one in para. 7a, above.
d. I then also obtained another error in a new window which read:
That's an error
Request Details
(a bunch of stuff)
That's all we know.
Support advised that there may be a propagation issue, and that I should wait up to 30 minutes. I did, and it then worked! The only weird thing was the project name was wrong, but it was only for the preview, so I didn't really care.
If anyone needs additional information, I can PM screenshots I took along the way.
Hope this helps someone!

Opening recent workspace shows the directories and files that I opened before, then how to get the directory location of them? I tried right click, but I see no information.
I expect something like this from Code Runner.
[I'm a member of the open source Light Table team.]
Light Table doesn't provide that info as you expect.
I agree that that would be a really useful feature, especially when you have multiple directories with the same name in different paths.
Maybe a tooltip when you hover over a directory that shows the full path would be the minimal change that would be helpful.
If you're willing to contribute, or know someone that is, feel free to create new issues in the GitHub repo for each of the Code Runner features you'd like to be implemented. Otherwise, add them to the feature wishlist wiki page.
These features could be implemented as plugins but I think some of them might arguably be fine implemented in the core app code. Pull requests welcome!
How can I find out which tickets were closed between one build and the previous stable build? I'm trying to design a new build process, so I'm not set on particular tools yet. Which ones would let me see this sort of info in a dashboard, if any? Should I try to do this from a bug tracker, or from a build pipeline such as Jenkins or Bamboo, or somewhere else?
A possible set-up is to:
include the bug-tracker issue ID in your commit messages in your SCM ("[MYPROJECT-12923] add this new option in that nice feature")
launch your build with Jenkins that retrieves the source code from your SCM. Jenkins will show you a "Recent Changes" label linking to a page where you will find the commits that took place between last build and the current one. The commit messages will include the list of issues ID included in the build.
Note: that maybe does not answer your question perfectly because those commits could be intermediate one. Depends also on how granular are the commits.
In our DEV team, all the commits have the JIRA number in them (This is enforced by a plugin called TicketIt in Stash . There are various other plugins available for different repositories) . When we run a build , all commits that are part of the build are aggregrated by teamcity and displayed on a tab called issues . This solution that I am proposing works in teamcity and bamboo . I am sure thee would be some plugin with Jenkins for the same.
A hackier way would be to get the start time of the last build (x) and the current build(y) and get all JIRA tickets that were closed during this time via JIRA API. This might not be a foolproof method if your JIRA's are not always closed before a build
I've been trying to learn how to use simpletest, and I found the simpletest automator. I was able to install it and run it, but where is the file with the results of the 'macro' saved? I haven't been able to find it.
Also, is there a quick way to duplicate a drupal install in simpletest? I know it starts from a clean install, but I don't want to have to go through and figure out what all is enabled and who has what permissions at the start of the test. Is there a script that can figure out the settings of the current drupal install?
Thank You.
Is there a script that can figure out the settings of the current drupal install?
The short answer is no.
Essentially simpletest should be used as a unit test framework. Where all of the data that is needed is set up at the beginning of the test and it is not reliant on system setting or a particular user having a permission. It does this quite well, and can test core functionality and individual modules easily. If you are testing an indavidual module you have written using simpletest is, well, simple.
Unfortunately most websites use a number of modules and are configured to work together in a very specific way. Simpletest doesn't cope with this very well.
There are ways to get around this:
One option is to write a setup script in php which will work as a big setup script for your test. This can create users, set settings and permissions. This can be dificult to write and maintain and can cause the tests to take a long time to run.
Another option is for the site testing (which is different from unit testing) to be done in a tool other than simpletest. I have had some success with selenium. The downside to this is that you need to find a way have clean data. Which can be tricky, copying a database works but doesn't scale.
I've been pointed to this blog post as an answer to the question: http://www.trellon.com/content/blog/forcing-simpletest-use-live-database
You can also use a site deployment module and enable only that at the very beginning of your test (in your SetUp() function).
