I have a minimal stack for creating a simple service with a listener. The listener gets created first and succeeds. The service gets initiated next but gets stuck on "CREATE_IN_PROGRESS". Now I have seen this issue on SO but that has a clear reason for it failing. In my occasion the Cloudtrail logs simple show the initiation and 10 minutes later (custom timeout) the delete but nothing in between. The Cloudformation dashboard events also just show initiation and delete thereafter.
The service does not get created during this time either. This I visually checked by going over to the services and having other services there but not my own.
I have trimmed down the cloudformation template to the bare (i.e. only listener and service with reference to existing resources) but it still gets stuck.
Apart from the usual cloudtrail and cloudformation logs, what could I do to identify the problem?
[EDIT] Here is the template I use. The parameters are based on my current setup.
