Azure Function Error: "Your function app does not support remote build..."

When I try to deploy an Azure Function to the cloud using... func azure functionapp publish appName --build remote --publish-local-settings

...I receive the following error

Getting site publishing info...
Remote build is a new feature added to function apps.
Your function app appName does not support remote build as it was created before August 1st, 2019.
Please use '--build local' or '--build-native-deps'.
For more information, please visit https://aka.ms/remotebuild

EVEN THOUGH THE APP WAS LITERALLY JUST CREATED IN AZURE PORTAL.

System: - Running VS Code on Ubuntu 18.04

Steps to reproduce:

Tried so far: - Substituting --build local. - Looks like it wants to work, but fails with error

There was an error restoring dependencies. ERROR: cannot install cryptography-2.9.2 dependency: binary dependencies without wheels are not supported when building locally. Use the "--build remote" option to build dependencies on the Azure Functions build server, or "--build-native-deps" option to automatically build and configure the dependencies using a Docker container. More information at https://aka.ms/func-python-publish

Not going to try: - --build-local-deps because I don't want a docker instance for my Function App

Please advise. This is painful at this point.

In my case, I was provisioning an azurerm_linux_function_app with terraform and got this error. The error turned out to be caused by me forgetting to specify the storage_account_access_key setting. The docs even mention

One of storage_account_access_key or storage_uses_managed_identity must be specified when using storage_account_name.

But terraform does not actually check that when applying your configuration, resulting in a cryptic error message much later in the process.

Here is what was found today:

  • I initially created the Function App Storage Account with...
# Create a Function App Storage Account

az storage account create \
    --name $fa_storage_name \
    --resource-group $rg_name \
    --access-tier Cool \
    --default-action Deny \
    --kind StorageV2 \
    --subscription $az_sub
    --location $az_loc \
    --sku Standard_LRS

Changed this to...

# Create a Function App Storage Account

az storage account create \
    --name $fa_storage_name \
    --resource-group $rg_name \
    --location $az_loc \
    --sku Standard_LRS

...and was able to get past that error. The way I stumbled onto this was using the --buld local flag. It gave me a MUCH MORE ACCURATE error. Something along the lines of Check your storage account dude.

(thank you Marcelo!)
