Fixing error: “Subnet group name can not be blank.”

You may get the following error:

Subnet group name can not be blank. (Service: AmazonRDS; Status Code: 400; Error Code: InvalidParameterValue; Request ID: f29c7cbf-8879-420

Despite the error, the requested property is called DBSubnetGroupName. To fix this, you’ll need to set the property in question, which may require updating your VPC as well.
