When i run:- terraform apply -target=module.transform\_job i log the following error:- Error: creating Glue Catalog Database (de\_c4w4a2\_silver\_db): operation error Glue: CreateDatabase, https response error StatusCode: 400, RequestID: ea856439-6b56-43a7-958e-039d620d7187, AlreadyExistsException: Database already exists. with module.transform\_job.aws\_glue\_catalog\_database.transform\_db, on modules/transform\_job/glue.tf line 1, in resource “aws\_glue\_catalog\_database” “transform\_db”: 1: resource “aws\_glue\_catalog\_database” “transform\_db” { But the problem is this database does not exist in the glue. So I checked using the following:- aws glue get-database --name de\_c4w4a2\_silver\_db which yielded this error:- and got an error:- An error occurred (AccessDeniedException) when calling the GetDatabase operation: Insufficient Lake Formation permission(s) on de\_c4w4a2\_silver\_db I am unable to grant this database the required permission please help. My coursera subscription will expire in 4 days I really don’t want to buy another subscription just to complete one last assignment considering the course is already 99% done. ---

Hi, Kindly request a lab refresh using this [form](https://forms.gle/S2gLNzQXZuMhBGwL6). You’ll receive a notification once it’s completed. Thanks! ---

I applied for the refresh and my lab did get refreshed and all three terraform commands now work but terraform apply -target=module.transform\_job shows the following results:- No changes. Your infrastructure matches the configuration. Terraform has compared your real infrastructure against your configuration and found no differences, so no changes are needed. ╷ │ Warning: Resource targeting is in effect │ │ You are creating a plan with the -target option, which means that the result of this plan may not represent all of the changes requested by │ the current configuration. │ │ The -target option is not for routine use, and is provided only for exceptional situations such as recovering from errors or mistakes, or │ when Terraform specifically suggests to use it as part of an error message. ╵ ╷ │ Warning: Applied changes may be incomplete │ │ The plan was created with the -target option in effect, so some changes requested in the configuration may have been ignored and the output │ values may not be fully updated. Run the following command to verify that no other changes are pending: │ terraform plan │ │ Note that the -target option is not suitable for routine use, and is provided only for exceptional situations such as recovering from │ errors or mistakes, or when Terraform specifically suggests to use it as part of an error message. ╵ Apply complete!

Hi @hawraa.salami, @ANAND_KASHYAP is encountering an authorization error following the recent lab refresh. When you have a moment, could you please take a look? Thanks so much! ---

Thank you for your support, sir, but after another lab refresh, no errors were show, and I was successfully able to complete the assignment.
