Cause for the issue:

1. The Terraform script must wait for each operation to complete before beginning the next one.

2. HTTP Error 409: Operation failed because another operation was already in progress.

3. When trying to re-use the same name for a new instance as a recently deleted one before the end of the waiting period for name re-use.

4. This error can also happen if synchronization issues of operations between the instance and the Cloud SQL service.

Steps to troubleshoot:

1. While running a Terraform script, we must halt execution until each instance operation is completed.

We can have the script poll and wait until a 200 is returned for the previous operation ID. Else, we have to wait for the currently running operation to complete.

2. After deleting an instance, we must wait a week before we can re-use the same name for a new instance.

3. If it is an issue with synchronization, the operation in progress would have been canceled. As a result, we will be able now to delete the instance without any obstacle.
