My SQL Flexible Server. Provisioning in requested region is not supported.

Question

Hi there,
could you please help me with the following question?
I am trying to create a Database Flexible server but I can't do it in my region because of the error: "Provisioning in required region is not supported".
My region is "germanywestcentral". I tried to create the server many times in different regions.
But I always get the same error. The only region where it works for me is "Central US".
But it is too far from "germanywestcentral".

What is the reason for this error? Is it possible to create a server in Europe?

Hi Vitalii Bielovtsev

Greetings!

As we understand that, you are facing an issue with provisioning a MySQL Flexible Server in the "germanywestcentral" region. The error "Provisioning in required region is not supported" generally indicates that the service may not be available in that specific region for your subscription type.

As per the Azure Database for MySQL - Flexible Server documentation, the "germanywestcentral" region does support MySQL Flexible Servers. However, there might be temporary capacity constraints or limitations related to the specific SKU you are trying to deploy. You can check your subscription type and availability here: Azure Program Regions.

Those regions are available as seen on: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/mysql/flexible-server/overview#azure-regions

I would recommend you to create a new service and subscription limits (quotas) request to allow access to deploy Azure Database for MySQL Flexible Server in Germany West Central.

Your subscription might not have access to create a server in the selected region if your subscription isn't registered with the MySQL resource provider (RP). Register your subscription with the MySQL RP to resolve it.

To register your subscription in the Azure portal, follow these steps:

1. In Azure portal, select More services.
2. Go to Subscriptions and select your subscription.
3. On the Subscriptions page, in the left hand pane under Settings select Resource providers.
4. Enter MySQL in the filter to bring up the MySQL related extensions.
5. Select Register, Re-register, or Unregister for the Microsoft.DBforMySQL provider, depending on your desired action.
6.
