Unable to delete a VPC

[Achraf]

Hi there,

Right now, I'm facing an issue with the delete function of a VPC network.
I've removed every services connected to this VPC and an error is displayed when I try to reach my action:

Operation type [delete] failed with message "The network resource 'projects/glb-sesame-prod/global/networks/sesame-vpc' is already being used by 'projects/glb-sesame-prod/global/networkInstances/v1471235711-b4cd9303-9544-489e-baa6-e013a87b7321'"

Could you please remove it?

Thanks for your feedback.

Guys,

Exactly the same error when deleting another VPC:

Operation type [delete] failed with message "The network resource 'projects/glb-sesame-prod/global/networks/vpc-sesame' is already being used by 'projects/glb-sesame-prod/global/networkInstances/v1471235711-8529d84c-85a3-4f3b-aaad-6969b448c7ae'"

There is a problem somewhere but I cannot define it.

Please help.

Thanks a lot
Achraf

@Achraf This seems like a bug to me. I have opened an internal bug with our networking team to look into 

[munish1 · Accepted solution]

So, those resources as given below have been deleted. You should now be able to delete the VPC

Operation type [delete] failed with message "The network resource 'projects/glb-sesame-prod/global/networks/sesame-vpc' is already being used by 'projects/glb-sesame-prod/global/networkInstances/v1471235711-b4cd9303-9544-489e-baa6-e013a87b7321

Hi @munish1 ,
that is great you helped to @Achraf . Could you help me too?  I have the similar problem.

Failed to delete the network. Error: Operation type [delete] failed with message "The network resource 'projects/[PROJECT_NAME]/global/networks/default' is already being used by 'projects/[PROJECT_NAME]/global/networkInstances/v35412604-6dc52cac-1778-...

I will be grateful for you help.

[munish1]

@Jaromir Sure, I have opened a similar bug. I will make another update here after I get a response from our engineering team

[munish1]

@Jaromir I have confirmation from the engg team that they have removed the blockers. Could you pls try deleting the VPC again and confirm?

[Jaromir]

Hi@munish1 ,

Hi @munish1 ,

Is your bug fix permanent or I have to ask you in the future?
Right, everything works well but I cannot know why now it works 😕

Thanks for your feedback

Hi @munish1,

Has the fix to this rolled out globally? Currently encountering the same error when deleting a vpc:

Operation type [delete] failed with message "The network resource 'projects/***/global/networks/test-vpc' is already being used by 'projects/***/global/networkInstances/v-2125180076-71684ba6-1a70-4626-886d-21f29ecd55fc'"

Thanks!

Hi @munish1, 

I have same problems about deleting VPC network via gcloud

ERROR: (gcloud.compute.networks.delete) Could not fetch resource:

The network resource 'projects/***/global/networks/dev-vpc-infra' is already being used by 'projects/***/global/networkInstances/v-1227917471-6e599fcf-85e5-4941-8dd5-a87f582e1c78'

Hello, @moe54 

I could fix this problem via changing references of app engine config.

Thank you for your kindly answer.

I am unable to delete the VPC at https://console.cloud.google.com/networking/networks/details/keycloak?project=website-232106&hl=zh-t... due to the error message:
"The network resource 'projects/website-232106/global/networks/keycloak' is already being used by 'projects/website-232106/global/networkInstances/v106699695-17ba9419-f6a5-424e-8771-6fbc862229d4'."
However, I can't find any instance with the ID 'projects/website-232106/global/networkInstances/v106699695-17ba9419-f6a5-424e-8771-6fbc862229d4'. Could you please help me with this?

Have you checked for serverless VPC Access? You need to delete it beforehand. Refer to this documentation for any other resources that needs to be deleted before deleting VPC

Hi we have a similar issue:
The deletion of the network failed. Error: Operation type [delete] failed with message "The network resource 'projects/***/global/networks/compass-network' is already being used by 'projects/***/global/networkInstances/v-340445827-b772c733-1040-45b8-8e40-343c69b63f46'"

We've tried to delete all references to this vpc, but still getting this error, while trying to delete it. No resources were found that connected to the vpc.
