I’m getting 
missing required configuration key "aws:region"
when trying to update a stack where this config is definitely set. 
pulumi up
and 
pulumi destroy
both give a similar output 
pulumi destroy -y --show-config


...

     Type                       Name                Status                  Info
     pulumi:pulumi:Stack        app-petetest        **failed**              1 error; 1 message
 -   └─ aws:ecs:TaskDefinition  api                 **deleting failed**     1 error
 
Diagnostics:
  pulumi:pulumi:Stack (app-petetest):
    Configuration:
        aws:region: eu-west-1
    error: update failed
 
  aws:ecs:TaskDefinition (api):
    error: 1 error occurred:
        * missing required configuration key "aws:region": The region where AWS operations will take place. Examples are us-east-1, us-west-2, etc.
    Set a value using the command `pulumi config set aws:region <value>`.
If I create a new stack and add the config everything works as expected
so maybe the state in pulumi cloud is missing this config?

ugh. try removing the value completely maybe? perhaps there's some weird unicode there shrug

oooh actually I think I spoke too soon. It happily previewed the refresh this time, but then gave the same error

you might try and edit the config on the console? it

You can edit via the console? I haven’t seen that

i thought you could, my bad. it sounds like you need to override it on the far side, you might try opening an issue to see if any of our smart engineers have any ideas

Cool shall do! Thanks for your help so far
Managed to fix it by importing the last working checkpoint from the pulumi console and running refresh! 
cat ~/Downloads/checkpoint.app.petetest-17.json | pulumi stack import

pulumi refresh
The checkpoints themselves look very similar: Mensions of 
region
in the one that didn’t work: 
{
        "urn": "urn:pulumi:petetest::app::pulumi:providers:aws::default_4_15_0",
        "custom": true,
        "id": "929f27cb-d6d4-48ab-8183-7e6721e3415f",
        "type": "pulumi:providers:aws",
        "inputs": { "region": "eu-west-1", "version": "4.15.0" },
        "outputs": { "region": "eu-west-1", "version": "4.15.0" }
      },
The one that did work… 
{
        "urn": "urn:pulumi:petetest::klydo-app::pulumi:providers:aws::default_4_14_0",
        "custom": true,
        "id": "3c814e44-4f28-4f8e-83e3-afd281ea8eeb",
        "type": "pulumi:providers:aws",
        "inputs": { "region": "eu-west-1", "version": "4.14.0" },
        "outputs": { "region": "eu-west-1", "version": "4.14.0" }
      },
So I guess the act of importing was what fixed it
I’m not sure what I’d do to reproduce this, but shall keep an eye out for it happening again!
