[elblivion]

Hi there,

Thank you for opening an issue. Please note that we try to keep the Terraform issue tracker reserved for bug reports and feature requests. For general usage questions, please see: https://www.terraform.io/community.html.

Terraform Version

0.7.3

Affected Resource(s)

AWS Provider: Terraform crashes when using an account which is not in allowed_account_ids attribute of the AWS provider.

Terraform Configuration Files

Configuration is not an issue; my config works when I have the API keys for the correct AWS account in my environment.

Debug Output

Please provider a link to a GitHub Gist containing the complete debug output: https://www.terraform.io/docs/internals/debugging.html. Please do NOT paste the debug output in the issue; just paste a link to the Gist.

Panic Output

https://gist.github.com/anonymous/188b284fe43c5747c1b1f13418e7a078

Expected Behavior

Terraform should give an "Account not allowed" error message as it did until 0.7.2 (I think, 0.6.16 for sure).

Actual Behavior

Crash

Steps to Reproduce

Please list the steps required to reproduce the issue, for example:

1. set AWS keys for an account not in allowed_account_ids in the AWS provider config
2. terraform plan

Important Factoids

I was able to reproduce this and I can also confirm this bug didn't exist in 0.7.2 which leads me to a thought that https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform/pull/8638 may be the root cause.
