Task 1: Create a Linux virtual machine and install Nginx

Question

I am trying to do this task by copying the command and pasting in Azure cloud shell but I keep getting an error message "unrecognized arguments: resource group]"

Answer 1

Hi Pragati,

There is a bug in the exercise whereby the sandbox group name isn't updated automatically as it should. Below instructions will fix it.

Please navigate to the Create an Azure virtual machine exercise, Activate a new sandbox, sign in, etc. Once sandbox is activated and black cloud shell window with "Welcome to Azure Cloud Shell" displayed, navigate to Exercise - Configure network access using the "Unit x of 14" dropdown above the exercise.

After page loads and resource group name is updated to learn-, immediately navigate back to Create an Azure virtual machine exercise and complete it.

Inspiration for above workaround came from @pnaroju's #2 suggestion in this post.

Hi Pragati,

This is not clear however you will need to replace the resources details according to your environment. Check this process guide to assist you in creating a VM.https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/blob/main/articles/virtual-machines/linux/create-cli-complete.md

Hope this helps.
