Terraform Version

v0.12.20
v0.12.16

Affected Resource(s)

aws_dms_certificate

Terraform Configuration Files

resource "aws_dms_certificate" "source" {
  certificate_id     = "source-oracle-wallet-ca"
  certificate_wallet = filebase64("${path.root}/rds-ca-2019-root.sso")
}

Debug Output

Output shows as successful, the DMS certificate is visible in the AWS console

Expected Behavior

The imported certificate should be valid

Actual Behavior

The imported certificate isn't valid.

Importing the certificate in the AWS console works and the below cli import is successful;

aws dms import-certificate --certificate-identifier source-oracle-wallet-ca-fromcli --certificate-wallet fileb://rds-ca-2019-root.sso

The TF state contains the correct base64 encoded certificate, but when TF imports it into AWS DMS, a second base64 encoding is applied corrupting the certificate.

Important Factoids

If I try;

certificate_wallet = file("${path.root}/rds-ca-2019-root.sso")

It fails with 'provided string is not valid UTF-8'

There were changes to the certificate_wallet input back in version v2.46.0, but this issue occurs in versions before or after 2.46

I'm having the same issue. We can't use the file function because the certificate contains invalid UTF-8 characters, however we can't also use fillebase64, because the aws-sdk-go will encode the content again, so that's why the certificate is corrupted.

I've opened a PR to try to fix this issue
