@angaaruriakhil, thank you for bringing this to our attention.
I found a similar issue #4485. It was noted there that your user may encounter difficulties working with source files.

The option is to add your user to the AzDevOps group, but if it does not help, I'll recommend you create a ticket in the extension repository because the problem seems not to be related to the agent itself.

I suggest creating a ticket in the extension repository, which will ensure the right team members are alerted to address this issue.

Hi, we are using the default AzDevOps user, not custom.

I thought about putting the issue here since I could see some changes to do with the aforementioned package in this repo in the most recent release.

If you still think that is the more appropriate place then I can put an issue in there.

@angaaruriakhil , yes, you are right.
There was an update to libicu74 for Ubuntu 24 in #4973 but based on your logs, the dependencies were still installed successfully

2024-09-22 11:34:03 Dependencies installation succeeded

And then I see that an issue arises where the start VMSS script fails to locate Agent.Listener.dll

Thanks @ivanduplenskikh , I put in issue microsoft/vsts-azurevm-extension#244 to that repo.

I'm closing this issue, but please don't hesitate to reopen it if you have further questions.
