Error deploying Bicep file: :"Location 'East US' is not accepting creation of new Windows Azure SQL Database servers at this time."

I'm once again trying to follow an MS Learning path concerning Azure. However, things do not go as planned. Yesterday, Tuesday, sandboxes could not be started at all, today a sandbox is created but it's invisible. Fortunately I know now how it can be found by logging in to the Azure portal and switching to the relevant subscription. However, that's about the extent of my success as I cannot create the resources found on this page:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/modules/build-reusable-bicep-templates-parameters/6-exercise-create-use-parameter-files?pivots=cli

This should supposedly create an SQL Database. However, this is not allowed because of the region. And the region for a Concierge Subscription should be eastus (as indicated elsewhere).

This is the error I get:

{"status":"Failed","error":{"code":"DeploymentFailed","target":"/subscriptions/c42268a6-fac4-4638-b014-76ff9880e070/resourceGroups/learn-88b49155-1476-4362-a4e2-6cb9d0275a72/providers/Microsoft.Resources/deployments/main","message":"At least one resource deployment operation failed.

    Hi Jan-Jaap Spies,

    Apologies for the delay in response. Is still an issue facing

    Consider deploying in different locations instead of "east us" as specified in the Concierge Subscription. You can modify the Bicep file by updating the location. The issue might be due to the service being unavailable in that region or high demand for the services you've requested. Changing your deployment location to another region (The resource group's deployed location might be helpful) should resolve this issue.
