I can’t quite understand what happened here

i created a stack which contained a resource group with name x, then after upping and everything is provisioned i find out that i have a typo in x so i rename it to Y and tries pulumi up again. But due to a naming conflict it fails quite a lot. We use shared pulumi random as suffix within one resource group, can this be the issue

Did it try creating new resources before deleting old ones and that caused the naming conflict?

yeah et chose replace, i think that the normal approach right, create new first and delete old after

In this case it should delete before creating a replacement to avoid conflict, which I expected it to do. If it doesn’t, we should investigate why.

okay sounds right, think it will be easy to replicate, create a stack with a resource with fixed name and then rename the resource group in that stack

I don't see the old resource group getting deleted. Does it still exist?

hmm i was trying out a lot of stuff and ended up deleting resource groups and the related pulumi stacks and starting over
