Error message: %s

Terraform acquires a lock when accessing your state to prevent others
running Terraform to potentially modify the state at the same time. An
error occurred while releasing this lock. This could mean that the lock
did or did not release properly. If the lock didn't release properly,
Terraform may not be able to run future commands since it'll appear as if
the lock is held.

In this scenario, please call the "force-unlock" command to unlock the
state manually. This is a very dangerous operation since if it is done
erroneously it could result in two people modifying state at the same time.
Only call this command if you're certain that the unlock above failed and
that no one else is holding a lock.
