Terraform: "No new version found" error when minimumReleaseAge is set and .terraform.lock.hcl exists

[nozaq]

How are you running Renovate?

A Mend.io-hosted app

Which platform you running Renovate on?

GitHub.com

Which version of Renovate are you using?

43.194.0

Please tell us more about your question or problem

Current behavior

When Renovate updates Terraform Providers, the following error occurs under specific conditions:

ERROR: No new version found for '<PROVIDER_NAME>' after updating '<TF_FILE_PATH>'

The issue occurs when all of the following conditions are met:

• minimumReleaseAge is configured in Renovate.
• required_providers is defined.
• A provider block exists.
• .terraform.lock.hcl exists.

I was able to reproduce this issue with multiple providers, including:

• auth0/auth0
• cloudflare/cloudflare

Reproduction

PoC repository:

• https://github.com/nozaq/renovate-update-auth0/

The following projects in the repository reproduce the issue:

• auth0-with-issue (which specifies Auth0 provider)
• cloudflare-with-issue (which specified Cloudflare provider)

Additional details

The update PR is created successfully if any of the following changes are made:

• minimumReleaseAge is removed from the Renovate configuration.
• The provider block is removed (while keeping only required_providers).
  • without-issue-1 project in the PoC repo
• .terraform.lock.hcl is removed.
  • without-issue-2 project in the PoC repo

The attached debug logs were collected with Renovate log level set to debug.

The issue reproduces in both:

• Mend.io Hosted App
• Self-hosted Renovate

Expected behavior

Renovate should successfully update the Terraform Provider version and .terraform.lock.hcl without failing with:

ERROR: No new version found for '<PROVIDER_NAME>' after updating '<TF_FILE_PATH>'

@mg1986jp
Thank you for the information.
I searched for terraformLockFileMaintenance in the documentation and the codebase, but couldn't find it anywhere. Is it actually supported?

[jamietanna]

Sorry, this user is spamming the Discussions with AI generated replies. I've blocked them now

@RahulGautamSingh mind taking a look at this question?

[nozaq]

The issue still persists, but I've found a workaround for my project.
I'm closing this issue since it hasn't received much attention. I'll also delete the PoC repository.
