Answer 1

@Georgia ,

Thanks for reaching out. This error message typically appears when you lack the required permissions to create or update a server farm.

To resolve this issue, consider the following steps:

• Verify Permissions: Ensure that your account has the necessary permissions, such as the Contributor or Owner role, for the resource group where you are attempting to create the function app.
• Check Subscription Limits: If you've reached the maximum number of server farms allowed in your subscription, you may need to delete an existing one or request a limit increase.
• Try a Different Region: The issue might be region-specific, so attempting to create the function app in another region could help resolve it.
