01/19/2024, 6:14 AMno, it wasn't "normal", I was trying to deploy an ECS task listening on port 80 but pulumi was just getting stuck, probably because of some IAM permission stuff. What concerns me is that it showed no output to allow me to debug.

01/19/2024, 7:22 AMDId you try to deploy only the task definition itself, or was there an associated service that you tried to deploy?
In that case, the issue might not so much be with Pulumi, but with ECS itself, if it has problem starting the service and failing health checks.
That could potentially take a long time, and you would have the same type of problem with other IaC tools as well.
If you try to deploy a service and have a desired count > 0, try to set desired count = 0 and re-deploy. Then it will not try to start the service, and it will be easier/quicker to troubleshoot.

In general, anything longer than 5 minutes suggests an issue with the container, permissions or something outside of Pulumi.
