A resource was removed from the .tf configuration file but Terraform still has it in the state, causing a plan to destroy it unexpectedly.

generic

从 .tf 配置文件中移除了某个资源，但 Terraform 状态中仍存在该资源记录，导致计划意外地要销毁它。

95% success Run 'terraform state rm <resource_address>' to remove the resource from state without destroying it, then run 'terraform apply' to sync.

90% success If you want to destroy the resource, run 'terraform apply' directly after verifying the plan shows the intended destroy.

```

运行 'terraform state rm <资源地址>' 从状态中移除资源而不销毁它，然后运行 'terraform apply' 同步。

如果希望销毁该资源，在验证计划显示预期销毁后直接运行 'terraform apply'。

使用 'terraform state list' 识别完整资源地址，然后运行 'terraform state rm <地址>'。

Common approaches that don't work:

90% fail
The apply will execute the destroy, removing the resource permanently.
80% fail
Manual edits often break state file format or leave orphaned dependencies.
70% fail
Terraform will try to create a new resource, conflicting with the existing state entry.
