@ta We appreciate your patience on this. Here is the root cause for the issue:
Cause:
All the users who try to use the de-DE on-prem speech-to-text container got impacted with this issue.
We could see this message in container logs: Service responded with error message: This container image is expired.
The cause was due to the key that encrypts the de-de model is expired. I was able to repro the same issue using this container.
.
Fix:
We had reached out to the Product Group team and they have mitigated this issue after extending the lifetime of the key.
.
You can try now again and it should work fine.
