Errors from build azure image

[Rajinder Singh]

I am trying to build a ubuntu VHD in azure using packer.

I took an existing sample.

https://github.com/mitchellh/packer/blob/master/examples/azure/ubuntu.json

I created a service principle using these instructions.

https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/resource-group-create-service-principal-portal/

I have create service principle many times before.

I updated above template and set the values for 

    "client_id": "xxxx",

    "client_secret": "gggg",

    "resource_group_name": "group name",

    "storage_account": "stgacctname",

    "subscription_id": "xxx",

    "tenant_id": "brrrr",

    "capture_container_name": "images",

    "capture_name_prefix": "packer",

Build 'azure-arm' errored: autorest#WithErrorUnlessStatusCode: POST https://login.microsoftonline.com/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/oauth2/token?api-version=1.0 failed with 400 Bad Request: StatusCode=400

I need to find a fix this this issue ASAP. Seems like an authentication failure but I don't know why.

I have used Packer with AWS for a while and it has worked well.

I recommended Packer to a client for Azure and I am surprised to see that even my simple example does not work.

appreciate any tips or suggestions.

Thanks

Did you ever get this resolved?

Having the same issue myself and have gone through all the links mentioned here.

Thanks,

Daryl

Daryl,

I found a work around that met for short term needs.

By removing client_id, tenant_id and client_secret. Packer will then ask you to login interactively. Once you authenticate via web browser packer will be able to build image.

Reason the guided setup script broke is because azure cli changed the syntax for the create ad  sp  command.

Hi Rajinder,

Do you have any sample working packer template for azure ? I've had a hard time building a custom image. It says waiting for ssh and never succeed, while ssh is available in parallel.

Thanks,

Ritwij
