Billing endpoint cannot reach while starting the disconnected container

Hello Anupam Mathur,

Thank you for your feedback.

Below are other steps you can use to resolve the issue specific to your scenario:

1. Disconnected containers for Azure Cognitive Services Translator require a valid license key to function. Ensure that the key is correctly configured during container deployment. If the key is missing or incorrect, the container will fail to operate. To set the license key, use the following Docker command: docker run -e LICENSE_KEY=<your_license_key> -e EULA=accept \ -p 5000:5000 your-container-image
2. Check all required environment variables to ensure proper setup. Disconnected containers may require additional configurations such as LICENSE_KEY and EULA. Missing or incorrectly set variables can lead to issues such as a Forbidden status or OperationBlocked errors. Proper configuration helps the container operate as intended.
3. The container version should be compatible with the disconnected features of Azure Cognitive Services Translator. Older versions might lack support for specific functionalities or encounter validation issues. Regularly update the container to the latest version by pulling the most recent image: docker pull mcr.microsoft.com/azure-cognitive-services/translator:latest
4. Although the container operates in disconnected mode, licensing validation might still occur during the initial setup. Ensure the correct licensing process was followed before disconnecting the container from the network. This step ensures that the container’s usage aligns with the Azure billing system.
5. Analyze container logs to identify the root cause of the issue. Logs provide detailed error messages, such as failed license validation or configuration issues. Use the following command to view logs: docker logs <container_id> review the output for any indications of missing configurations or licensing problems.
6. If all troubleshooting steps fail, reach out to Azure support via Azure Portal.
