Silver_db table already exists error (Assignment 4: Capstone Project Part 1 - ETL and Data Modeling)

I cannot under and circumstances deploy the terraform script in step 4.2.6. I always get the error:

Error: creating Glue Catalog Database (de_c4w4a1_silver_db): operation error Glue: CreateDatabase, https response error StatusCode: 400, RequestID: 23a88f96-f15e-41e0-bd0a-062660d77ee0, AlreadyExistsException: Database already exists.

with module.transform_job.aws_glue_catalog_database.transform_db,
on modules/transform_job/glue.tf line 2, in resource “aws_glue_catalog_database” “transform_db”:
2: resource “aws_glue_catalog_database” “transform_db” {

What I also tried is running this command in the terminal:

aws glue get-databases
{
“DatabaseList”:
}

which leaves me with an empty database list.
Checking the Data Catalog Tables in AWS Glue also displays no created database. Is there anything else I can do besides requesting a refresh of my AWS account?
