ACM indicates my certificate is attached to a Cloudfront distribution that does not exist

Question

I have a ACM certificate that cannot be deleted via the UI or via the CLI.
The certificate says it is attached to a resource that does not exist: `arn:aws:acm:us-east-1:518048683554:certificate/102c17e1-1df1-4bc1-97c7-91d00c45cf0e`

Any ideas?

```
aws acm delete-certificate --certificate-arn arn:aws:acm:us-east-1:518048683554:certificate/102c17e1-1df1-4bc1-97c7-91d00c45cf0e --region us-east-1

An error occurred (ResourceInUseException) when calling the DeleteCertificate operation: Certificate arn:aws:acm:us-east-1:518048683554:certificate/102c17e1-1df1-4bc1-97c7-91d00c45cf0e in account 518048683554 is in use.
```

And also

```
aws cloudfront delete-distribution --id arn:aws:cloudfront::667135842464:distribution/E196BV96RU2HXB

An error occurred (NoSuchDistribution) when calling the DeleteDistribution operation: The specified distribution does not exist.
```

Answer

From the commands seems your ACM is in AWS account number : 518048683554

And you are trying to delete the CloudFront distribution in different AWS account : 667135842464

replace the correct Account ID and CloudFront distribution and you should be good and make sure you are passing the correct region.

aws cloudfront delete-distribution --id arn:aws:cloudfront:::distribution/
