Hi,
I was wondering if somebody else is also struggling with the same issue than I am.
I tried to use the Cloud Builder 10.6.1 to deploy a new ArcGIS Server (General purpose) on Azure. I fill up all the steps, making sure I don't want to use Cloud Storage at "CONFIGURATION STORE OPTIONS".
Then, when I click on "Finish", the process starts, but quite fast I get a validation error:
Template validation errors:- Deployment template validation failed: 'The template variable 'cloudStorageOption' is not valid: Unable to evaluate the template language function 'substring'. The length parameter cannot be less than zero. The length parameter: '-1'. Please see https://aka.ms/arm-template-expressions/#substring for usage details.. Please see https://aka.ms/arm-template-expressions for usage details.'.. Details:-
It looks like the template made by Cloud Builder lacks of a parameter, or is not properly derived.
Just for the sake of testing, I modified the configuration to get the artifacts from a configuration USING cloud storage, and I can see
"useCloudStorage": {
"value": true
},
Somewhere in the template. At the original template I created NOT USING cloud storage, there is not a parameter "useCloudStorage" with value = false.
According to the ARM template:
"cloudStorageOption": {
"true": "[concat(substring(parameters('externalDnsHostName'), 0, indexOf(parameters('externalDnsHostName'),'.')), '@', parameters('cloudStorageAccountName'), variables('environmentToBlobEndpoint')[parameters('environment')], '@', parameters('cloudStorageAccountResourceGroupName'),'@',string(parameters('useAzureFiles')))]",
"false": ""
Is it possible that Cloud Builder fails creating the template/parameters in this particular scenario?
