Container App Revisions become unmanageable after updates (via API or portal)

[jackofallops]

Container Apps Reports Timeout on LRO despite apparently actually deploying and starting the containers in the revision.

API Call returns:

Message="Failed to provision revision for container app 'acctest-capp-220531111719259950'. Error details: Operation expired."

The revision being “created” is the rev4 noted displayed as Provisioned, and the container is started successfully as shown in the App Insights log entry:

“[REDACTED]“,RestAPI,,,"5/31/2022, 10:27:29.835 AM",,,"5/31/2022, 10:26:45.775 AM","1653992805.77502"," * Running on all addresses (0.0.0.0)",stderr,F,"docker.io/jackofallops/azure-containerapps-python-acctest:v0.0.1","acctest-capp-220531111719259950--rev4-6779d76698-6xlmx",5aa611e0a9b2d86717621376de2336d6a21e43fbe6e677189c2828ea4098869b,"11f5c016-0ac7-4a67-b21a-488523b502c0","acctest-cont-220531111719259950","acctest-capp-220531111719259950",,"agreeableground-ab0a055d","ContainerAppConsoleLogs_CL",

However, the service reports "provisioningState”: “Failed”.

The Update configuration (specifically a configuration containing the minimum required properties plus a revisionSuffix), when sent as a Create operation, works correctly. Additionally, if it is the first update to a newly created resource, it also works correctly. If applied as a subsequent update, it fails and the service cannot be updated further, even via the Portal, e.g.

API Version: 2022-03-01

I am experiencing the same issues ☝️ when deploying updates to a containerapp using bicep and github actions.

Is this on Microsoft's roadmap yet? As it is a new service with a lot of potential users migrating from Container Instances I think this deserves to be prioritised.

Hi People, please there are any update?

We want to use this feature but without the terraform module, we cannot start to use it.

Same here. Is this isolated to certain users or how are others using it in production in this state?

Hi all - Whilst this issue is still outstanding, we've worked together with the service team to establish a workaround to prevent this issue until such time as a long term solution can be found/implemented, so the initial support for this is now in final review stage for the provider in hashicorp/terraform-provider-azurerm#18008

There are multiple themes going on here. Just so there is no confusion

1. Terraform support - there is support for this and its tracked here New Service: Containerapps hashicorp/terraform-provider-azurerm#18008
2. Timeout when deleting a secret, this is what the core of this issue is about, is being tracked here Deleting a secret that is referenced by some revision results in a long running update operation timing out microsoft/azure-container-apps#395
