Did you reboot?

[#3]

no, but double checked the power cord

[#4]

seems our (2 year old) service connection to ACR was broke
created a new one
we're back up

Hey,

We had the same issue, but since we didn't want to recreate the Service Connection (SC), it's shared across a large number of projects, we did the following;
- Find out the name of your Service Principal (check your ACR roles for something like [ORGANIZATION]-[PROJECT]
- Go to the SP, create a new secret and remove the old one.

- Edit and save the SC.
- Restart the agents.

One of the last 2 steps is required (not sure which one) since the credentials are stored somewhere, simply creating a new secret was not enough for us.

Hope this helps the next person
