Azcopy failing with Error 409 : 409 The requested operation is not allowed in the current state of the entity.. When Uploading blob

Question

Hi,

Any idea about this error message while using Azcopy to upload files from local to blob

Error 409 : 409 The requested operation is not allowed in the current state of the entity.. When Uploading blob

Answer 1

I've got the same error with azcopy version 10.14.1.
SAS token generated by Azure Portal for a container folder had a "/" missing at the end of the path.

Generated by Azure portal: "https://<storage-account-name>.<blob or dfs>.core.windows.net/<container-name>/<folder-name>?<other params>"

Worked after correction: "https://<storage-account-name>.<blob or dfs>.core.windows.net/<container-name>/<folder-name>/?<other params>"

@Maitra-v, Anirban Welcome to Microsoft Q&A Forum, Thank you for posting your query here!

Based on the error code, Its a generic error and issue could be due to permissions to azure storage account( Blob )

• Are getting this error for particular blob container? and can you please share the complete azcopy cmdlet what you using (while sharing the data, please delete the PI information)
• Are you using SAS token or AAD for data transfer (If you are using SAS token please regenerate the token, sometime SAS token would be expired) ?
  -Can you please share the screen shot of the error message?

Refer to this article how to upload files and directories to Blob storage by using the AzCopy v10 command-line utility.
Example azcopy copy "<local-folder-path>" "https://<storage-account-name>.<blob or dfs>.core.windows.net/<container-name>" --recursive=true

For testing purpose, can you please use Azure Storage explorer tool and let me know the status.

Assign an Azure role for access to blob data
