Unable to update SSH key on VMSS

See original GitHub issue

After running

az vmss extension set \
  --vmss-name myvmss \
  -g myresourcegroup \
  -n VMAccessForLinux \
  --publisher Microsoft.OSTCExtensions \
  --version 1.4 \
  --protected-settings "{\"username\":\"myuser\", \"ssh_key\":\"$(cat ~/.ssh/mykey.pub)\"}"

The command stalls at - Running indefinitely without ever returning. I was able to reproduce this on several VMSSs.

P.S. I do not have access to the VMs in the vmss so I cannot retrieve contents of the files:

/var/log/azure/custom-script/handler.log
/var/log/waagent.log

This used to work just fine. Any idea why the extension doesn’t work anymore?

The request hanging is a failure. If you cannot capture logs then I am sorry, but I cannot help you based on the information you have provided. Please reactivate if you are able to get logs.

We’re not failing. We’re just not getting any feedback whatsoever. The request is just hanging. We’re running an Ubuntu VMSS supported distro. I can’t get logs from a blackbox. Isn’t this project owned by Azure? Why go through a different channel of communication if the extension isn’t working? Does this extension for anything other than VMSSs?
