Notes

From the version v1.5.0, the module has removed the following provider setting:

provider "alicloud" {
  profile                 = var.profile != "" ? var.profile : null
  shared_credentials_file = var.shared_credentials_file != "" ? var.shared_credentials_file : null
  region                  = var.region != "" ? var.region : null
  skip_region_validation  = var.skip_region_validation
  configuration_source    = "terraform-alicloud-modules/dns"
}

If you still want to use the provider setting to apply this module, you can specify a supported version, like 1.4.0:

module "dns" {
  source      = "terraform-alicloud-modules/dns/alicloud"
  version     = "1.4.0"
  region      = "cn-beijing"
  profile     = "Your-Profile-Name"
  domain_name = "dns001.abc"
  // ...
}

If you want to upgrade the module to 1.5.0 or higher in-place, you can define a provider which same region with previous region:

provider "alicloud" {
  region  = "cn-beijing"
  profile = "Your-Profile-Name"
}
module "dns" {
  source      = "terraform-alicloud-modules/dns/alicloud"
  domain_name = "dns001.abc"
  // ...
}

or specify an alias provider with a defined region to the module using providers:

provider "alicloud" {
  region  = "cn-beijing"
  profile = "Your-Profile-Name"
  alias   = "bj"
}
module "dns" {
  source      = "terraform-alicloud-modules/slb-http/alicloud"
  providers   = {
    alicloud = alicloud.bj
  }
  domain_name = "dns001.abc"
  // ...
}

and then run terraform init and terraform apply to make the defined provider effect to the existing module state.
