Terraform-provider-aws: aws_dynamodb_table resource reading tags from dynamodb-local throws UnknownOperationException

[hashibot]

_This issue was originally opened by @cstavro as hashicorp/terraform#11926. It was migrated here as part of the provider split. The original body of the issue is below._

---

Terraform Version

0.8.6

Affected Resource(s)

• aws_dynamodb_table

Terraform Configuration Files

provider "aws" {
  region = "us-east-1"
  dynamodb_endpoint = "http://localhost:8000"
}

resource "aws_dynamodb_table" "mytable" {
  name = "mytable"
  read_capacity = 1
  write_capacity = 1
  hash_key = "id"

  attribute {
    name = "id"
    type = "S"
  }
}

Debug Output

https://gist.github.com/cstavro/5e23b233ebfc29ffa48e5ead52d27c34

Expected Behavior

• Should be able to plan and apply a config
• Should be able to plan after an apply

Actual Behavior

• The initial plan works as expected but the apply errors when refreshing state. It does appear to create the tables and stores them in the tfstate file but you are unable to plan or apply any changes after that initial apply.
  The output is here: https://gist.github.com/cstavro/d9d3686454fafd2d95a6ebc7cba43363

Steps to Reproduce

1. terraform apply

Important Factoids

• This works fine in v0.8.5
• Running latest version of dynamodb-local for development

+1 to fix this. Table gets created but can't be destroyed
