Failed to create public IP address

Question

I tried to provision a public IP address on Azure.

I kept getting the following error without details even though I made multiple tries with different names and locations for the intended public IP.

  "statusCode": "Conflict",
  "statusMessage": {
    "status": "Failed",
    "error": {
      "code": "InternalServerError",
      "message": "An error occurred.",
      "details": []
    }
  },

At creation stage, the validation always succeeded. However, the deployment always failed.

Anybody experienced the same problem and worked out a solution? Your help will be highly appreciated!

I assume you are using the ARM/Bicep template, make sure the name attribute is unique
"type": "Microsoft.Network/publicIPAddresses",
"apiVersion": "2020-11-01",
"name": "[variables('publicIPName')]", //This should be Unqiue
