Not public.

• What happened?

Trying to deploy python function to Azure but pip install freezes 40 minutes and then deployment fails.

• What did you expect or want to happen?

Deployment succeeds.

• How can we reproduce it?

Create function app to Azure. OS: Linux, Configuration/General settings/Python version: 3.11.
Create new function with VS Code, for example http trigger.
Add 'arcgis' to requirements.txt.
Deploy function to Azure function app.

Sometimes deploying succeeds if I change python version on function app to 3.9 and put 'arcgis==1.9.1' to requirements.txt.

Start by reproducing the Azure Functions deployment with Python 3.11 and arcgis in requirements.txt, then inspect the Oryx build command and its pip install stage in the provided logs. Compare the result with Python 3.9 and arcgis==1.9.1; done means identifying the failure cause and establishing whether the deployment can complete successfully.
