Azure-cli: Azure Network VPC Peering Create Fails v2.1.6.0

[shyamsabhaya]

Describe the bug
With the new CLI release, vnet peering create returns an error BadRequestError: Cannot parse the request.
Portal Activity logs show full error:

"statusMessage": "{\"error\":{\"code\":\"InvalidRequestFormat\",\"message\":\"Cannot parse the request.\",\"details\":[{\"code\":\"InvalidJson\",\"message\":\"Could not find member 'syncRemoteAddressSpace' on object of type 'VirtualNetworkPeeringProperties'. Path 'properties.syncRemoteAddressSpace', line 1, position 558.\"}]}}",

To Reproduce
az network vnet peering create --name network1 --vnet-name vnet1 --remote-vnet vnet2 --allow-vnet-access --resource-group rg1

Expected behavior
Expected a peering connection to be created.
Environment summary
Azure CLI version 2.16 on Linux

The same problem appears when working in the Sandbox on Microsoft learn:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/modules/integrate-vnets-with-vnet-peering/4-exercise-configure-vnet-peering-connections-using-azure-cli-commands

az network vnet peering create \
--name SalesVNet-To-MarketingVNet \
--remote-vnet MarketingVNet \
--resource-group learn-114ae29b-9f47-45ff-b4e7-58b1610d04b7 \
--vnet-name SalesVNet \
--allow-vnet-access

-> BadRequestError: Cannot parse the request.

[lurumad]

Same error for me

az network vnet peering create \
--name MarketingVNet-To-ResearchVNet \
--remote-vnet ResearchVNet \
--resource-group learn-ab688f25-b6c0-4f3f-b517-18f11986d4e2 \
--vnet-name MarketingVNet \
--allow-vnet-access

Just arrived here from the same Microsoft Learn lesson, experiencing the same problem.

[mwiora]

enterprise grade products mh? same here... I would recommend to introduce testing

[msyyc]

Thanks for reporting and we're debugging it now

[nboeckmann]

+1 and now it's getting really annoying as the hosted Agents in Azure DevOps have just been switched to 2.16 - So no one using Azure DevOps can create any network peerings using the Azure CLI task anylonger.

[yonzhan]

We are proactively following up with service team about this and will update later.

[smokedlinq]

This broke our release processes that manage all our vnet peering. With the 2.16 release, several az commands have changed in ways that are broken our pipeline. As much as I love the tooling, I need stability.

[nboeckmann]

any update on this one?

[alepauly]

xpost from https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/issues/16235#issuecomment-746773514

the following commands can be use to downgrade the version and unblock your builds on the hosted agents:

Windows:

choco uninstall azure-cli
choco install azure-cli --version 2.15.1
az version

Ubuntu:

sudo apt-get remove azure-cli
sudo apt-get install azure-cli=2.15.1-1~focal
az version

Please keep us posted on any issues with them. Thanks!

[msyyc]

Thanks for comment. We have found the problem and it will be fixed in new version(will be released at about 2020/12/29). The problem could be avoided temporarily through downgrading version to 2.15.1.

@chtelf,

• Did you log in as the root user?
• What Linux distros did you use? Debian, Ubuntu?
• From the error "sudo: command not found", it's not an issue related to Azure CLI. You can google it to resolve the issue.

[mattallford]

Hi all,

I received a E: Version '2.15.1-1~focal' for 'azure-cli' was not found when trying to run sudo apt-get install azure-cli=2.15.1-1~focal in a pipeline task. This is a Bash@3 task running on a ubuntu-latest vmImage.

Full output from the task is below. Am I doing something wrong or using the wrong task?

- task: Bash@3
  inputs:
    displayName: "Downgrade AzCLI"
    targetType: 'inline'
    script: |
      sudo apt-get remove azure-cli
      sudo apt-get install azure-cli=2.15.1-1~focal
      az version

Cheers, Matt.

How about install azure-cli through pip : "pip install azure.cli==2.15.1"

[mattallford]

Hi @msyyc, thanks for the reply.

Doesn't look like anything above version 2.2.0 is found with pip:

Collecting azure.cli==2.15.1
  Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement azure.cli==2.15.1 (from versions: 0.1.0b9, 0.1.0b10, 0.1.0b11, 0.1.1b1, 0.1.1b2, 0.1.1b3, 0.1.2rc1, 0.1.2rc2, 2.0.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, 2.0.3, 2.0.4, 2.0.5, 2.0.6, 2.0.7, 2.0.8, 2.0.9, 2.0.10, 2.0.12, 2.0.13, 2.0.14, 2.0.15, 2.0.16, 2.0.17, 2.0.18, 2.0.19, 2.0.20, 2.0.21, 2.0.22, 2.0.23, 2.0.24, 2.0.25, 2.0.26, 2.0.27, 2.0.28, 2.0.29, 2.0.30, 2.0.31, 2.0.32, 2.0.33, 2.0.34, 2.0.35, 2.0.37, 2.0.38, 2.0.40, 2.0.41, 2.0.42, 2.0.43, 2.0.44, 2.0.45, 2.0.46, 2.0.47, 2.0.48, 2.0.49, 2.0.50, 2.0.51, 2.0.52, 2.0.53, 2.0.54, 2.0.55, 2.0.56, 2.0.57, 2.0.58, 2.0.59, 2.0.60, 2.0.61, 2.0.62, 2.0.63, 2.0.64, 2.0.65, 2.0.66, 2.0.67, 2.0.68, 2.0.69, 2.0.70, 2.0.71, 2.0.72, 2.0.73, 2.0.74, 2.0.75, 2.0.76, 2.0.77, 2.0.78, 2.0.79, 2.0.80, 2.0.81, 2.1.0, 2.2.0)
No matching distribution found for azure.cli==2.15.1

Edit: Actually, I'm not sure why, but on a re-run it was finding the correct version, but it is now failing at a different stage. I've put the output of sudo pip install azure-cli==2.15.1 below. I found some other threads that pointed to needing to update the tools first, but running sudo pip install --upgrade setuptools prior (which upgraded the tools from 39.0.1 to 44.1.1) didn't seem to help either.
