Cannot create an Azure virtual network, missing location or affinity group

[hashibot]

This issue was originally opened by @progre55 as hashicorp/terraform#3976. It was migrated here as part of the provider split. The original body of the issue is below.

Whenever I try to create a virtual network, I'm getting the following error:

azure_virtual_network.default: Error creating Virtual Network test-network: Error response from Azure. Code: BadRequest, Message: Neither Affinity Group nor Location elemet is specified in virtual network site 'AppMySiteNetwork'. Either Affinity Group or Location must be specified for every virtual network.

Here is my code:

resource "azure_virtual_network" "default" {
    name = "test-network"
    address_space = ["10.1.2.0/24"]
    location = "West US"

    subnet {
        name = "subnet1"
        address_prefix = "10.1.2.0/25"
    }
}

Hello!

Thank you for opening this issue and participating in the discussion. Today (December 19, 2017) we’ve announced the deprecation and archival of the Azure Classic Provider. Matching Microsoft’s commitment to gradually remove access to Azure Classic (or Service Management) which is outlined in this blog post, we are closing all open PR's and Issues here. This repository will remain available here on GitHub, but in an archived state, and no longer receiving support or new releases.

The Azure (Resource Manager) Provider remains fully supported and is our recommended approach for managing Azure with Terraform. More information about this process is available in the blog post linked above.

Thanks! The Terraform Team
