Delete AWS ECS cluster - The service cannot be stopped while the primary deployment is scaled above 0

delete_ecs_cluster.txt

I tried to delete a cluster:
	"The Cluster cannot be deleted while Services are active."
I tried to delete the service called 'nginx':
	"The service cannot be stopped while the primary deployment is scaled above 0"

	Select service, click 'Update' - set 'Number of tasks' to 0
	This changed the number of 'Desired Tasks' to 0

Or I guess:
aws ecs update-service --service nginx --desired-count 0 --cluster ecscluster1 --profile devops


Delete the service
Delete the cluster

tnx.

Please follow the below steps:

1. Click on Update
2. Make Number of Tasks to 0
3. Update the service again
4. Then click on Delete

Thanks
