I’m very new to azure function apps and I’m following the documentation below to create a basic function using the CLI

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/create-first-function-cli-python?tabs=windows%2Cbash%2Cazure-cli%2Cbrowser

When starting function app from the documentation example, I’m seeing the following error

[2024-06-25T12:12:35.599Z]   File "/afh/projects/abhijeet-project/azure-functions/demo/function_app.py", line 8, in <module>

[2024-06-25T12:12:36.846Z] No job functions found. Try making your job classes and methods public. If you're using binding extensions (e.g. Azure Storage, ServiceBus, Timers, etc.) make sure you've called the registration method for the extension(s) in your startup code (e.g. builder.AddAzureStorage(), builder.AddServiceBus(), builder.AddTimers(), etc.). 

Can anyone guide how to fix this error? I have not made any changes to the artifacts crated when invoking a function app project. I’m running this code on compute instance created in azure ai studio. TIA.

Here is the full log

I have tried researching about the problem on number of forums but I did not find any resolution to this particular issue. My thinking is that the error “AttributeError: Anonymous” when starting an Azure Function typically indicates that there’s an issue with the function’s code or configuration. But the thing is, I did not make any changes to the autogenerated artifacts created after I ran func new ... command as instructed in the documentation.

I was hoping func start would spin up a localhost.
