The error "Unable to create any cluster. Please try again or contact support" is a general message that can occur due to several reasons in Azure Databricks. Here are a few common troubleshooting steps you can take to resolve it:

Insufficient Permissions - You may not have the required permissions to create or start clusters. Please check with your workspace admin to ensure you have the correct role assigned with cluster creation rights.

Compute Quota Limit Reached - Your Azure subscription might have hit its vCPU or core limit. Ask your Azure admin to review the current quota and increase it if needed.

Cluster Policy Restrictions - If your organization uses cluster policies, they may be restricting certain configurations. Try launching a cluster without a policy or consult your admin to adjust the policy settings.

VM Availability in the Region - Azure might not have the specific VM type available in your region at that time. Try changing the cluster type (e.g., use a smaller node size or a different VM family).

Platform Issue or Temporary Glitch - Sometimes this happens due to temporary issues on the Databricks side. Try refreshing your browser, logging out and back in, or waiting a few minutes before retrying.

Few other considerations:

• Try creating a cluster manually from the Clusters tab instead of from the notebook.
• If that fails, check for any error details or logs shown during cluster creation.
• If you're in a managed environment (organization or university), reach out to your workspace admin or IT team.
