Fix Terraform Error: Provider configuration not present safely

Terraform Error: Provider configuration not present means state still associates one or more managed resource instances with a provider configuration address that the current root module can no longer supply. The missing object may be a deleted child-module provider block, a removed alias, an absent module call, or a changed provider source. Repair the execution context before planning any infrastructure change.

Recover safely from Terraform Error acquiring the state lock

Terraform Error acquiring the state lock means the configured backend refused a potentially state-writing operation because another lock exists or the lock service is unavailable. The safe response is to identify the exact backend, workspace, lock owner, and active run before considering force-unlock.
