I also met same error message: ERROR: Failed to attach interface (HTTP 500) (Request-ID: req-e247b021-3cb1-41a2-b678-4732c3bf9cae).

The interface was failed to attached the running instance. But when I check the interface list for that instance, it just show one interface is added, but status is down.
