De-c3w2a1 VPC Issues

Hello everyone,

Yesterday i was doing the de-c3w2a1 assignment and everything was right, then at the end i destroyed the terraform as stated in “number 8” i didn’t know that it’ll removed everything, so i got 0 grade, then i tried to rerun everything while commenting and uncommenting some of the part, but the couldn’t get the data for the last layer so i got 76/100 which didn’t give me a pass. thus, decided to start a new lab after it get expired.

I launched new lab but unfortunately I’m unable to run the ssh command it says the following “bash: export: `vpc-09aa47e296a31ed52’: not a valid identifier”

When i created the cloud9 env i checked the VPC options, i have two options:

i went with the second option as it has the required subnet “de-c3w2a1-public-subnet”

but unfortunately i got this error in the terminal “bash: export: `vpc-09aa47e296a31ed52’: not a valid identifier”

Then i tried the other VPC (which don’t have a "de-c3w2a1-public-subnet
" subnet, but it also didn’t work

I waited until the lab get expired and tried again but still facing the same issue, so i logged off and left it for tomorrow.

Today, i started the lab, but unfortunately got the same problem.

So i moved to the next week a still couldn’t finish the second week because of the " de-c3w2a1" assignment.

Please help me.

Hello @Azizoh and @baricsedu24
This issue has happened in the past, but almost always it was gone when the students started a fresh lab session. Are you getting two VPCs with the name de-c3w2a1 repeatedly in the lab? Even after the lab session restarts?
