Hello,

This error message usually occurs when you don't have the necessary permissions to create or update a server farm.

To resolve this issue, you can try the following steps:

Make sure that you have the necessary permissions to create or update a server farm. You need to have the Contributor or Owner role assigned to your account or the resource group where you are trying to create the function app.

Check if you have reached the limit of server farms that you can create in your subscription. If you have reached the limit, you need to delete an existing server farm or request an increase in the limit.

Try creating the function app in a different region. Sometimes, the issue can be specific to a region, and creating the function app in a different region can resolve the issue.

If none of these steps work, you can try contacting Azure support for further assistance.

Pls check and let us know if further ques

Thanks

Hii @ömür bozdemir,

Thank you for reaching us regarding the issue of creating a web app for your Django application and encountering the "ServerFarmCreationNotAllowed" error. This typically means that your subscription doesn't have the permissions to create or update the required server farm.
For this, please perform the following steps:
1.Required Resource Providers Not Registered

App Service creation requires these providers:

Microsoft.Web
Microsoft.DomainRegistration

If they are not registered, App Service Plan creation fails. You can register them

az provider register --namespace Microsoft.Web
az provider register --namespace Microsoft.DomainRegistration

Check if there are any Azure Policies or Management Group settings that could block you from creating App Service Plans.

Review resources in Azure Policy in the portal and evaluate any policies that could impact resource provisioning.

Certain Azure subscription types do not support creating new App Service Plans, even when the user has the Owner role. According to Microsoft documentation, this limitation is commonly seen in Free Trial, Azure for Students and newly activated subscriptions that are still undergoing billing verification. These subscription categories have built‑in restrictions that prevent deploying App Service Plans until the subscription is fully validated or upgraded.

3.Region‑specific or quota‑based restrictions can prevent the creation of new App Service Plans if the selected Azure region has exhausted capacity or enforces a quota limit.

Kindly let us know if the above helps or you need further assistance on this issue.
