Hello,

After deploying the synapse workspace, at step 'Run the global setup script in Cloud Shell', I get an error 'Cannot bind argument to 'String' because it is null'.

I think because of that, I can`t find the app registration or the key vault secret to continue the lab. Any advice please?

When I run the script in my cloud shell , this line return empty password and so the sql scripts didn't run

$global:sqlPassword = $(Get-AzKeyVaultSecret -VaultName $keyVaultName -Name $keyVaultSQLUserSecretName).SecretValueText

I changed to make it work

$secret = Get-AzKeyVaultSecret -VaultName "asagakeyvaultpietrobr1" -Name "SQL-USER-ASA"
$ssPtr = [System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SecureStringToBSTR($secret.SecretValue)
try {
$global:sqlPassword = [System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::PtrToStringBSTR($ssPtr)
} finally {
[System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::ZeroFreeBSTR($ssPtr)
}

Hi team,

I'm facing some issues while running the deployment of environment-setup.ps1 it seems that there is an underlying folder structure which is not part of the script. It looks for "..asa/hands-on-labs/templates/.json" however I have "asa/hands-on-labs/setup/templates/.json" same for sql and datasets. Is there something I am missing here?

Where to update the path in case it is just on my end? An example of one of the errors attached. Thanks, Sanja

When executing .\environment-setup.ps1:

Create KeyVault linked service asagakeyvault...
AzureResponseError: Failed to connect to MSI. Please make sure MSI is configured correctly.
Get Token request returned: <Response [400]>

I have and error running the last step of the PS file,

$app = (az ad sp create-for-rbac -n "Azure Synapse Analytics GA Labs" --skip-assignment) | ConvertFrom-Json

$secretValue = ConvertTo-SecureString $app.password -AsPlainText -Force
Set-AzKeyVaultSecret -VaultName $keyVaultName -Name "ASA-GA-LABS" -SecretValue $secretValue

Looking into my Active Directory I see that an application with the same name already exists, so I think that also the this name must be unique with the prefix used for the setup.

For now I have created a new one by hand, not sure if it works correctly for the remaining part of the lab

When I run .\environment-setup.ps1 I get following errors:

Hello appreciate for keeping the documentation.

i was trying to open the media file hosted in Streams and it's not available.

Hi I'm trying to launch the deploy from the setup document using ARM.

Testing deploying both in West Europe and North Europe. Suffix is pietrobr.

I get always failed deploy with a conflict "Error" on the Azure Synapse workspace.

If I look at activity log
Operation name
Create or Update Workspaces.
Time stamp
Wed Dec 09 2020 18:16:48 GMT+0100 (Central European Standard Time)
Event initiated by
-----@-----
Error code
ResourceOperationFailure
Message
The resource operation completed with terminal provisioning state 'Failed'.

If I manually create an Azure Synapse Analytics on my subscription it works just fine.

====
Update: if I don't change any parameters of the template for deployment (setting only the prefix), the deployment seems to complete successfully.

I guess it could be a problem with SQL Pool password, that I changed in my first run with the region.

I will do some more tests tomorrow.

Any ideas?
