Azure VM: "Paste the Public IP address in your browser" not working #31

Closed AlexandreSajus closed 3 years ago

AlexandreSajus commented 3 years ago

I have followed the tutorials 1b and 2a of the wiki to create a data science environment. I am stuck at step 4 of 2a where "Paste the Public IP address in your browser." isnt working. I get an error "Site can't be reached".

Where did I go wrong?

Hi there! Can you please try deleting this environment, and redeploying one using Australia East as your Location?

AlexandreSajus commented 3 years ago

Same thing in Australia East unfortunately

THIS COULD BE A REALLY IMPORTANT SECURITY ISSUE, PLEASE LOOK INTO IT I found the problem: My password for the Azure VM was something like "&WORD". When I checked the logs of the VM, I found: "/bin/sh: 1: WORD: not found. The console considered my password as a command because of the symbol "&" and saved it in the logs unencrypted

Solution: don't start your password with a "&"
