For any terraform users that may be using code like this: data "cloudflare_ip_ranges" "cloudflare_ipv4_list" {} This is coming back with an empty list on some fields and causing havoc in terraform.

It is shocking to me how bad to non-existent error handling is in most terraform providers. It leads to some remarkably arcane and esoteric error messages

In the time I made this post and now it's come back. Really wish that would've returned an error and not an empty list, that almost caused a disaster in my automation.

There was no error message, that was the really unsettling part.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Our main Marketing website that brings revenue is down. No Sympathy from me. It has been 20 mins now. Losing money as I type this. EDIT: I panicked a little. As a dev, I should have been more sympathetic.

It’s only reasonable to be angry but do try to remember that the people fixing this are people like you who showed up at work to build something and are instead dealing with a fire. Ask their bosses about how they got in that situation but be nice to them, they’re having an even worse day than you are.

Fair enough. They resolved it now and I was in a bit of panic considering our revenue depends on the website. As a developer though, I should have been more sympathetic.

And just 30 minutes ago we were about to flip the switch on a months long migration to Cloudflare Pages for our new website, I guess some things weren't meant to be :')

Omg. What timing. I feel your pain. We recently migrated to Cloudflare Pages and I was happy at the speed and everything and now this :(. Never had a downtime when I self hosted on my DigitalOcean droplet. damn. Re-considering going back to old school nginx static site hosting.

Heck even shared hosting for $3/mo works just fine
