Hi @l3m

Apologies for the issue here. It seems like there is an issue with the credentials you are using:

Can you tell me how you created these? One of the people who got bit by this in the past wrote the instructions on how they solved it https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/azurerm/index.html

Yes, it's definitely an issue with the credentials - as I wrote, I just copied the default example file from the terraform website and ran terraform plan, just to see what happens. I didn't yet fill in the credentials (they were still set to '...').

I would assume that the correct behavior would be to print out some error message about invalid credentials or so, not to crash.

@l3m

got it - yes, we are going to add a message there for sure :) It's something that slipped through the cracks
