AZ Azure Commands fail: error: the following arguments are required: –name/-n, –resource-group/-g – Debian

Creating a resource in Azure with the following command:

az vm create --name quickvm --resource-group RG1 --image Debian --admin-username student --admin-password Password456#@long

Fails with:

az vm create: error: the following arguments are required: –name/-n, –resource-group/-g

This isn’t the first time, the commands are definitely correct, so something funny is going on. Any ideas?

    Sometimes the formatting of the hyphens is malformed. Type the hyphens in again or replace the big-endians:

    Same happened to me during Azure Fundamentals course:

    az vm extension set 
       --resource-group learn-....
       --vm-name my-vm 
       -n customScript 
       --publisher Microsoft.Azure.Extensions 
       --version 2.1 
       --settings '{"fileUris":["https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Microsoft
       --protected-settings '{"commandToExecute": "./configure-nginx.sh"}'

    the following arguments are required: –name/-n, –publisher

    Switching from az interactive to bash helped.

    Replacing dashes or spaces or copying-pasting into text editor didn’t help.
