Bluemix - BXNUI0005E: The application could not be

Question

Since today, when creating an app (Web or Mobile), Bluemix prompts an error :

BXNUI0005E: The application could not be added.

Anyone else is facing this issue?

Answer 1

I'm new to Bluemix and just had this error when running through my first tutorial. I fixed it by changing my application name to something that should be unique rather than the 'HelloWorld' I had been trying.

Answer 2

If you are using a 'lite' plan, you can create only ONE Cloud foundry app. The naming convention (dns or App) has nothing to do with it.

I was pulling my hair checking for any duplicates in the apps name. Hope this helps for any noobs looking for an answer.

Answer 3

Today testing the app creation either with "web" or with "Mobile" gives no error. This problem might be caused by having hit the personal account limit of App/Services or a temporary outage of App/Services itself.

Answer 4

Normally, the problem occurs when the app name exists already. The simple way to check by; .mybluemix.net .eu-gb.mybluemix.net .aus-syd.mybluemix.net

Answer 5

Go back to Dashboard and delete everything there.

Answer 6

You have to choose a unique application name.
