Looking for guidance on transferring my Learning Room (Azure Integration + AI)
Hi everyone, I’m Konstantinos, the host of the Learning Room Modern Development with Azure Integration and AI in the Microsoft Learn Skills Hub. With the Learn Expert program being retired, all Learning Rooms will close at the end of June. I’m hoping to keep our room alive by transferring it into an existing Tech Community space — but this can only happen if a community owner approves the move. 🔗 Learning Room: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/group/a16aab22-66d5-4fc2-8539-b6a382916bda Focus: Hands‑on Azure integration patterns, modern development practices, and applied AI — supporting learners building real‑world solutions. If you are a community owner, moderator, or know who manages a relevant Azure space (Apps on Azure, Azure Architecture, Azure AI, Integration, Developer Tools, etc.), I’d be grateful for any guidance or introductions. Even a quick pointer to the right contact would help. The Tech Community team will handle the transfer if approved — I just need confirmation from the destination owner. Thank you to anyone who can help steer this in the right direction. I’d love to continue supporting learners within the Azure community.

Azure Stack HCI Registration Help
We are waiting on arrival on our Azure Stack HCI cluster. In the meantime I have been trying to setup a test environment. The challenge I have is with registering the cluster with Azure. I understand their are specific Azure permissions need for the account that performs the registration. My intention was to register the system on my Visual Studio Subscription. Everything appeared to go ok until what I suspect was my last step. The last step - where I selected my Visual subscription gave me the somewhat expected permission error. Another organization within our college owns the tenant and we'll have to work with them when it comes time to register our production system. Here is where I could sure use some help. Since this permission issue still needs to be hammered out and this is just a test I figured I would try registering it with my personal Azure account. When I try to do that, it errors stating that my personal subscription is not found in the tenant. Which is true.... The problem is I can't figure out how to "unregister the incomplete registration." Everything I see shows the system to be "unregistered." Short of burning my test systems down and restarting, is there anything I can do to reset this registration process? Thanks, Jim
Restoring a user to Azure API Management instance who had registered using Azure B2C
I am trying to restore a Azure API Management user account that I had backed up and has identity.provider and intentity.id backed up. When I restore this user using the ARM endpoint using URI similar to one below, the user gets restored but has both "AadB2c" and "Basic" as the auth type:- "https://management.azure.com/subscriptions/${subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/${resourceGroup}/providers/Microsoft.ApiManagement/service/${apimName}/users/${userId}?api-version=2024-05-01" Why is Basic being added as the value because the backup had "AadB2c" as the Auth Type? And is there a way to avoid that and only have "AadB2C" as the Auth type.
How to consume Azure Event Grid messages on local desktop application?
Hello All, I am new to Azure Platform, Need some inputs on how can one consume Azure Event Grid messages on local environment. I already went through the documentation of the same but all I could find was references related to those apps which runs on Azure PaaS. If anyone can guide me in the right direction, I would be very much appreciate it. Thank you.
Problems with FSLogix 3.26 - W11 MU - 10 users per Vm
Scenario Overview We are documenting a recurring intermittent Denial of Service (DoS) regarding user profiles in an AVD multi-session environment using Azure Files Premium (SMB). The issue consistently surfaces after updating to the FSLogix 3.26 branch (v3.26.126.19110). Root Cause Analysis (Failure Logs) Through deep log analysis, we identified a "driver poisoning" pattern unique to version 3.26: SMB/Kerberos Handshake Sensitivity: Under varying storage response times (latency spikes of ~350ms vs. the usual ~40ms), version 3.26 triggers an intermittent 1326 error (Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password). Driver Execution Flow Corruption: Unlike previous versions, after this initial network/authentication glitch, the 3.26 driver fails to release execution threads or volume handles properly. Catastrophic Failure (Error 267): The system attempts to access the SecuredProfileRegData path within the mounted VHDX, but the driver returns Event ID 26: "0x10b - The directory name is invalid". Unrecoverable "Zombie" State: Once Error 267 occurs, the VM becomes "poisoned." It blocks all subsequent login attempts and even prevents a clean uninstallation of the agent (MSI Error 0x80070643 due to files being "in use"), necessitating a full VM reboot or redeployment. Has anyone else been through this? My first step was to go back to Agent Version 2506 (2210 Hotfix 4) Evidence of Success with Version 2506 (2210 Hotfix 4) After performing a clean deployment and reverting to version 3.25.626.21064, metrics from April 24, 2026, show absolute stability on the same infrastructure: Consistent Logon Times: Average profile load time of 1.6 seconds across multiple concurrent users Storage Efficiency: FindFile response times remained stable between 39ms and 45ms, with the agent successfully retrying any momentary delays. Error Resilience: Unlike v3.26, if this version encounters an authentication glitch (e.g., on a local service account), it bypasses the error and remains functional, allowing domain users to log in without collateral blockages. Concurrency Support: Seamlessly managed over 20 simultaneously mounted volumes without pointer collisions or kernel hangs.
Trying to configure 3rd Party VPN from CloudGenix ION device
Hi all, I am trying to get my VPN from my CloudGenix ION connected to an Azure instance through a traditional IPSec VPN. I have everything configured but my device requires me to add an Inner Tunnel IP Address but the MSP for the customer doesn't see this setting in their Azure VPN configuration. Does anyone know how to, or where to add this in Azure's VPN settings?
I can no longer connect to some of the nodes over pfSense IPSec running in Azure
This used to work flawlessly and I didn't change anything in the configuration, so this may have happened after upgrading to pfSense 2.5.2, or after some Azure changes. Specifically, I can no longer connect to the Azure VMs which use the same subnet as my Azure pfSense instance. I can, however, connect to other VMs that reside in a Peered address space. My infrastructure is: One Internet-facing pfSense instance in Azure, running IPSec (let's call it PF) Clients connecting to PF over IPSec Several VMs using the same subnet as the PF (let's call them VMA) Some other VMs using another peered subnet (VMB) PF is configured to pass all IPSec traffic (Local Network set to https://0.0.0.0/0) I have since enabled the following, to no avail: IP forwarding on the LAN-facing PF NIC Azure UDR rule for https://0.0.0.0/0, making the next hop at PF appliance and associated it with the LAN subnet which all VMA use What I have found out so far is that: the traffic originating from an IPSec client to VMA shows up in tcpdump on both enc0 and LAN interfaces in PF, and: one-way traffic shows up in tcpdump on VMA *only* after enabling IP forwarding, but the VM is sending ARP request for the IP address and doesn't seem to be using the routing table: 15:19:00.578098 IP 10.1.1.1.52074 > 10.1.0.6.22: Flags [S], seq 2814773395, win 65535, options [mss 1198,nop,wscale 6,nop,nop,TS val 442515869 ecr 0,sackOK,eol], length 0 15:19:00.578191 ARP, Request who-has 10.1.1.1 tell 10.1.0.6, length 28 Tracerouting on VMA to any of the IPSec clients also confirms that VMA is unaware of the table rule I added. there are no firewall rules blocking it in PF the traffic originating from an IPSec client to VMB shows up in tcpdump on both enc0 and LAN interfaces in PF, and: two-way traffic does show up in tcpdump on VMB I can ping/connect to any of the VMs running on Azure or IPSec clients directly from my PF instance. I have run out of the ideas on how to proceed here. So far it looks like everything is fine on pfSense end. It does seem like routing issue, even though it used to work just fine up until recently. EDIT1: I just checked the Effective Routes on one of the VM's NIC, and am seeing the Default Active 10.1.0.0/23 Virtual network route, which is listed first, while my UDR is last. The 10.1.0.0/23 is my LAN subnet, which includes the IPSec clients. What does one do in this case? EDIT2: I can see that the communication with VMB works fine because of the effective rule that handles that: Default Active 10.2.0.0/24 VNet peering EDIT3: I added a UDR targeting my IPSec clients specifically, which according to https://aidanfinn.com/?p=21480 should take precedence over the default rules, but still to no avail 😕 EDIT4: the Next Hop in Azure correctly shows PF as as a next hop from VMA.Blazor Wasm ASP.NET Core 6 + Azure Active Directory + Azure Key Vault + Certificate
Hello, I'm not finding documentation about how to configure and setup a Blazor Client-Side (Wasm) .NET Core 6 application that will allow a non-Azure hosted Application connect to the Key Vault with a Certificate at the AAD app registration setup and not in the users device. I'm trying to have an application not hosted in Azure have the ability to get secrets from the Key Vault and not have a certificate installed on the users device or certificate store. Ideally when the application launches have the ability to communicate with Key Vault to get its appsettings. The MS Docs provide an example of using a self-signed X509 Cert BUT it has to be installed on the users machine and in their Certificate Store, which is what I want to avoid because its not the user requesting access its the registered application in AAD. Thanks in advancedWindows App - RDP channel crashes when printing on a redirected canon printer
Hey team, I would like to know, if anyone else struggles with the following scenario: A canon printer is installed on a local client. The user is working in the AVD environment. The printers are redirected into the AVD-Session via "printer redirect". Since the users are migrating to the new "Windows App", the AVD session breaks as soon as the user is printing on a redirected Canon-Printer. When printing on another printer, there is no issue. Also: With the "Microsoft-Remotedesktop" Application, everything works as it should. A Microsoft ticket is already raised. I would like to know if there are other environments, which are encountering the same issue.

I have simulation which is sort of command line node app. something like node something.js -p1 -p2 etc. I create docker image of it. I need to run it in AKS cluster. Say I create deployment with 2 or 3 replicas . How I can run it so it can take advantage of cluster to process it faster? I understand web application I can access by public IP. But not understanding how I can run it for such command line application? Can I just SSH to one of pod and run it?
Error Set-webConfigurationProperty cmdlet not recognized

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask if it's possible if I can connect Tableau to an internal database that I'm planning to build. Not just Tableau but Monday.com too. And yeah, I know I need to build the database first, and sort everything out first, but it's for my presentation. I would really be grateful if someone can answer this and show me a bit of how I can do that. Do I need some token from tableau or something?
