Azure-functions-host: Cannot create Function App

[CentriqTraining]

My steps to reproduce....always fails for me.
Click Create a resource
Type Function App into "Search the Marketplace" textbox.
On the function App Create page, click Create button.
On the "BASICS" tab,

• I choose an existing Resource Group
• I choose centriqfunc in the function app Name
• I choose .net core in runtime stack
• I chose both East US and Central US

On the hosting Tab.

• I choose to create a new storage account.
• Regardless of how many times I try, the new storage account name I type does not show in the dropdown. But if I leave the currently randomized Storage account name in, it is the same.
• Windows os
• Consumption Plan for Plan type.

On the Monitoring Tab:

• NO to application insights

Click Review and Create

Validation fails
"The template deployment 'Microsoft.Web-FunctionApp-Portal-569bbb3b-acab' is not valid according to the validation procedure. The tracking id is 5dd36329-b2a9-4e68-9995-9f73187e4b94.' See inner errors for details" with an arrow seemingly indicating that you can see more details...but you can't.

Trying to figure this out by myself
When I searched for Function App, I saw 2 items with the same name. I discovered I'd accidently "SAVED" the old "Create Function App" at some point in time. Clicked the old one (It still came up) and it worked! I got a function created. Unsaved it...and now I can only get to the normal one and it still fails every time with the same error.

Hey @CentriqTraining thanks for reporting. Are you still seeing this issue? The new function app creation experience is still in Preview, so we are actively making updates.

[CentriqTraining]

It appears not. I didn’t actually create the resource, but it validated

Why did this get closed? I am experiencing this same issue as of today. I cannot create any Function Apps in my Azure account.

[susingh]

I am hitting the same issue today. I was able to create the function app just a couple days ago. Some part has regressed. Please fix!

[susingh]

I was able to work around this Azure portal issue by creating the resource from the Visual Studio 2017 publish dialog.

[dougmolineux]

This is still broken. I'm unable to create function apps.

[ammanifold]

Hey @dougmolineux sorry you are running into this. Can you email me a screenshot and network trace for debugging.

@mhoeger can you please reopen this issue?

[dougmolineux]

I managed to figure out the reason why mine was failing. My existing resource group already had a Linux based service, and this portal wizard must default to creating a Function App with Windows.

After creating a new resource group, it worked.

Hopefully, this will help someone in the future, when they come from google (like i did).

[ammanifold]

Default OS is then determined by the Runtime stack, location, and plan type. The defaults can be adjusted in the Hosting tab.

[dougmolineux]

Ah gotcha, yeah I was just clicking Create after the first step.

[FibonacciSpiral]

Yeah I'm having problems as well. Creating a new resource group doesn't seem to help at all. What's going on? Why is this broken?

[Aerdanel]

I have the same issue. Even when trying to create all new elements (resource group, storage account etc.).

[mhoeger]

@FibonacciSpiral and @Aerdanel - can you please open new issues with your specific details for us to investigate? You can link those back to this issue too. Thanks!
