@i42-dh Thanks for reaching out. I couldn't observe the issue at my end. Can you please share retry the operation again and confirm if you are still facing the issue. In case if you still facing the issue, please confirm how you are creating the function app (is it from function app blade --> Click on create function or some other blade) and share the session ID (ctrl + alt + d) from azure portal after reproducing the issue so I can review the logs.

In Chrome, with 2 separate directories, this happened both times. Today happened again. I attempted to create from the Azure portal website.

Create a Linux US West Func - serverless.

In hosting, click "Create New" -> it'll do that square waiting symbol for 1/2 second then show "already exists" no matter what.

F12 console shows:

@i42-dh Thanks for sharing the details. Looks like you don't have the right to perform the registration of the resource Microsoft.Storage as I can see 403 error for the storage resource registration. As this may be the first time someone is trying to create the storage resource or someone unregistered the Microsoft.Storage on the subscription so portal will try to register the resource on your subscription but as you don't have the permission the operation is getting failed. Please navigate to your subscription and verify under Resource Providers whether Microsoft.Storage is registered or not. If it is not registered, then you need to reach out to the admin of your subscription to register the necessary resources in the new subscription. Once you have registered with the Microsoft.Storage resource provider then retry the operation again to confirm if you still observe the issue.

For more details, please refer to this document for registering the resource provider.
