I don't get a redirection after typing in 'az login'

Question

I think the problem is in the first line of the error message. The redirection link is login.microsoftonline.DE instead of login.microsoft.COM. Does anyone have an idea how to fix that?

I'm glad for anything that could help!

PS H:\> az login

Hello Tran, Thomas (ext)

Try Azure cloud shell from azure portal directly and see if it redirects to the microsoft AAD URL

This error can occur due to a variety of reasons, including network connectivity issues, proxy settings, firewall restrictions, or issues with the Azure login endpoint itself.
Additionally you can try the below

1. Update the Azure CLI to the latest version by running the following command: az upgrade
2. If the issue persists, you can try uninstalling and reinstalling the Azure CLI.
3. Check your network connectivity: Make sure that you are connected to the internet and can access other websites. If you are behind a proxy server, make sure that the proxy settings are configured properly.
4. Check your firewall settings: Make sure that your firewall is not blocking the connection to the Azure login endpoint. If you are on a corporate network, check with your IT department to ensure that the necessary ports are open. Please accept as answer and upvote if the above information is helpful for the benefit of the community.

Answer 2

The solution was to check on which cloud was configured by looking into the configuration the the 'az cloud list --output table' command. The following is the output:

PS H:> az cloud list --output table

IsActive Name Profile

---

False AzureCloud latest

False AzureChinaCloud latest

False AzureUSGovernment latest

True AzureGermanCloud latest

After that I had to set the right cloud with 'az cloud set --name AzureCloud and az login should work now :)

Answer 3

The first two commands should allow you to clear and start over with all defaults. The final should open the browser window. When the browser is not appearing you are already logged in with an account.

az account clear
az config set core.enable_broker_on_windows=false
az login
