I'm trying to have Terraform run my bash script after deploying my Bitnami EC2 instance (AMI: ami-0f185ef928bf37528). I can find the file at /var/lib/cloud/instance/scripts/part-001 but it isn't being run.
My desired script is a little more complicated but even this isn't being run:
#!/bin/sh
set -x
echo "Hello World. The time is now $(date -R)!" | tee /root/output.txt
mkdir /opt/bitnami/projects
exit
main.tf contains
resource "aws_instance" "app_server" {
ami = "ami-0f185ef928bf37528"
instance_type = "t2.micro"
key_name = "app_server"
security_groups = [aws_security_group.ec2_sg.name]
user_data = file("init.sh")
}
I'm not seeing any obvious issues or indicators in /var/log/cloud-init-output.log and /var/log/cloud-init.log
I tried to replicate your issue, but your code works perfectly:

Thus its possible that your real code that you are using is different then in the question.
