Cannot create AppService nor AppService Plan in Germany

Question

When I try to create an AppService Plan or AppService in German West Central (where these types of resources are supposed to be available) I get a weird error:

"Code":"Unauthorized","ExtendedCode":"52039","Message":"This  
│ region has quota of 0 instances for your subscription. Try selecting different region or SKU."  

It's also weird because it's not clear what "instances" means in the case I'm creating the AppService Plan.

I also checked "Quotas" but there's nothing evidently to link to such resources, mostly are about vCPU and the like.

Same error happens both using the Portal and using Terraform+CLI.

Thanks for any help!

Hi @Gabriele

what the error message says... actually, your subscription does not have the right and/or the quota to deploy an AppService (Plan) in Germany West Central

In generell this should work, I just tried to deploy a function app with app plan in my Visual Studio subscription...

So it must have something to do with your user, your permissions and/or your subscription (or in a combination of these).

Maybe it has something to do with your quota... here is a possible troubleshooting guide...

Quotas seem pretty free. There are some that have limit=0 by default, but this is true also in FR or CH where it actually works.
