Azure pfsense deployment always fails

[jdetmold]

I have spent hours tying to get the netgate pfsense azure vm to deploy.

most times it says

 "status": "Failed",
  "error": {
    "code": "ResourceDeploymentFailure",
    "message": "The resource operation completed with terminal provisioning state 'Failed'.",
    "details": [
      {
        "code": "OSProvisioningClientError",
        "message": "Username specified for the VM is invalid for this Linux distribution. Error details: Provisioning image FAILED Failed to create user account: adminuser (0x07).."[/code]

it has worked twice but both times it worked I had tried to deploy with an ssh key instead of a password and then the keyfile does not work on the server end.
I have tried many usernames that should work even just random strings always get the same error.

anyone get this to work?

Hello Jdetmold,
I am encountering the same issue as you. May I ask, were you able to get this to work? If so, how?
Thanks in advance!
