Cloud datalab fails to deploy with ERROR: Could not pick a region and/or zone


When I try and deploy Datalab I'm seeing the following error in the logs during the deploy of the datalab appengine module:

Apr  9 21:14:42 datalab-deploy-main-20160409-21-12-10 startupscript: ERROR: (gcloud.preview.app.deploy) Could not pick a region and/or zone.
Apr  9 21:14:42 datalab-deploy-main-20160409-21-12-10 startupscript: Step deploy datalab module failed.

I'm seeing a module called datalab show up (says it's in us-central) but when I go back to the page to launch it, it asks me to Deploy again. I've retried 3-4 times with the same result.

Nothing else is the logs sticks out as an error or issue. Any suggestions to help get around this?


Solution

  • Turns out the cloud project I was trying to start datalab on was missing a service account necessary for datalab to run successfully. I won't post it here because they are specific to each cloud project.
