Cannot create External Location due to HNS on Azure Datarbricks

I have run into an issue with creating an External Location on an ASLS storage container with the following error  :

"Hierarchical Namespace (HNS) not enabled
Azure storage account does not have hierarchical namespace (HNS) enabled."
 
The Storage account was ADLS Gen1 when I first saw the account, since then we have upgraded the storage account to ADLS Gen2 and HNS is now enabled. I am still getting the same error "Hierarchical Namespace (HNS) not enabled"
 
I have tested this on other ADLS Gen2 storage accounts that are brand new and did not run into this issue.
 
Did anyone run into this issue on Azure.

I ran into the same issue, after enabling the HNS, still getting this error.
