Datasource vcd_catalog_vapp_template not working for shared catalog with local org users

[NilsBusche]

Terraform Version

Terraform v1.3.5
on linux_amd64
+ provider registry.terraform.io/vmware/vcd v3.8.1

Affected Resource(s)

• Data source vcd_catalog_vapp_template

Terraform Configuration Files

data "vcd_catalog" "catalog" {
  org  = "ORG0001"
  name = "catalog-abc"
}

data "vcd_catalog_vapp_template" "vapp_template" {
  org        = "ORG0001"
  catalog_id = data.vcd_catalog.catalog.id
  name       = "template-123"
}

Expected Behavior

The vApp template in the shared catalog should be found and the data source should return its attributes.

Actual Behavior

Error: Unable to find vApp Template: error retrieving Org: error retrieving Org ORG0001: [ENF] entity not found

Steps to Reproduce

1. terraform apply

User Access rights

The user is a local org user.

Important Factoids

Executing the same with a user with provider access rights works as expected. So it seems an issue related to access rights.

Submitted #961 because although it is almost identical the error is not the exact same.

Hi @martijnhazebroek
I have submitted PR #972 to fix this issue. Would you be able to build a provider out of this branch and try your use case?

[dataclouder]

Fixed and merged to main branch

Any instructions on how to build for windows_amd64?

[dataclouder]

You need to have Go 1.19 installed, go to the top of the repository and run :

cd terraform-provider-vcd
GOOS=windows GOARCH=amd64 go build -o terraform-provider-vcd_v3.8.2

Then copy the resulting executable into

$HOME/.terraform.d/plugins/registry.terraform.io/vmware/vcd/3.8.2/windows_amd64

Thank. Tested, and #961 is solved with PR #972 as well.

Btw, to build for Windows:

$version = "3.8.2"

cd terraform-provider-vcd
$env:GOOS = "windows";$env:GOARCH = "amd64";go build -o terraform-provider-vcd_v$version -f

$target = Join-Path $env:AppData "terraform.d\plugins\registry.terraform.io\vmware\vcd\$version\windows_amd64"

New-Item -ItemType Directory -Path $target -Force
Move-Item -Path "terraform-provider-vcd_v$version" -Destination $target -Force

Go can be installed with: winget install GoLang.Go.1.19

Thanks for confirming it!
