Error using Azure Template about bosh-azure-cpi-release HOT 5 CLOSED

Hi @cbrianball . Thanks for your feedback.

The initdevbox step threw a WindowsAzureError when it tried to create a container bosh in your storage account.
Could you check your settings for the template, and re-deploy it?
If it does not work for you, please feel free to let us know.

I had tried 2 - 3 times and kept getting the same error. I tried again, but since you pointed out the storage account, I used a different name (this time with all lower case) and it worked.

Clearly I failed to read the description for the storage account name on the page I referenced where it states lower case letters and numbers only.

So to me it seems that Azure should have returned an error when the storage account create request was issued and it shouldn't have even made it as far as it did.

Thanks, I'll close this issue.

Totally agree with you, @cbrianball . I will try to figure out why Azure does not return an error when the storage account name is invalid. Will let you know the result.

Thanks.

I tried deploying pivotal cloud foundry on Azure. After deploying few resources , it failed with an error. I dont see a problem with Storage account as it is created properly.

@vcherukuri
Your issue is about the authorization of your service principal. You need to check the authorization. Do you assign the right role to your service principal?
