IBM Cloud: Error trying to create Code Engine project

I am trying to create a new IBM Cloud Code Engine project on the command line, but am running into errors.

$ ibmcloud coligo proj create -n HLTest

Creating project 'HLTest'...
FAILED
Cannot target project HLTest

Listing my projects with ibmcloud coligo proj list succeeds.

Solution

  • After tracing the command using IBMCLOUD_TRACE=true I found an error indicating that my currently set cloud region is not enabled. Setting ibmcloud target -r us-south and then executing the above ibmcloud coligo proj create -n HLTest succeeded.

    Lessons learned: Listing projects is global, creating a project only works when a supported cloud region has been targeted before.

    From @vidya's answer: Also set the resource group using ibmcloud target -g RG with RG being the resource group. Each account has a default resource group.
