Errors when changing or deleting resources: Put: EOF

[Jfmask]

Hello.

Thank you for the great Nexus management tool, which helps a lot with our work.

However, we have encountered problems when updating or deleting resources.

Describe the bug

When resources are changed and Terraform is restarted, errors like the following occurs:

nexus_role.write_only_all: Modifying... [id=nx-write-only-all]

Error: Put "https://nexus-host/service/rest/beta/security/roles/nx-write-only-all": EOF

Running the same command again successfully removes or modifies resources.

The problem occurs not only with Nexus roles, but also with users. It is difficult to reproduce the problem because the error does not occur every time.

It is suspected that the problem is with Nexus, Nexus Proxy or Nginx behind which Nexus is running, but we have not been able to find out at which stage the error occurs.

Expected behavior

The changes go through the first time.

Hi @Jfmask,

can you please describe your environment so we can try to reproduce this bug?

Or set the environment variable TF_LOG to DEBUG and attach the output to this ticket.

regards
André

I think, the reason is the following: travelaudience/nexus-proxy#26
We use that Helm Chart to provision Nexus with Nexus Proxy, thus proxy can drop requests from the terraform-provider-nexus.
