Answer 1

provider "postgresql" {
  
  host      = var.postgresql_user_server_fqdn
  port      = 5432
  username  = var.administrator_login
  password  = var.administrator_password
  sslmode   = "require"
  superuser = false
  
  alias = "create_user"
}
I am using this provider block to connect to postgresql every time. It give the mentioned error occasionally at different interval and goes away automatically. Please help.

Answer 2

@Nitin Naidu (Consultant) This seems you are using the postgresql provider. Seems hashicorp doesn’t maintain/support it for a long time. You can see more details here. Suggest using “azurerm_postgresql_flexible_server” and “azurerm_postgresql_server” in terraform azurerm provider.

Hope this information helps
