Fired up my first Azure Website to host some virtual tours... ftp uploading and page loads super slow.

I upgraded my plan to BASIC... any idea why FTP upload are so slow? When I go to my pages, they are loading slowly too.

Hi,
First, please have a look at this article to see how to use FTP in azure:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/kaushal/archive/2014/08/02/microsoft-azure-web-site-connect-to-your-site-via-ftp-and-upload-download-files.aspx, based on your description, the pages loading slowly, this issue only occur in your first time to loading? If yes, I
think it is normal, If you mean the initial request takes long and then any subsequent requests are fast, then that would be because you are hitting .NET apps cold start. Many .NET apps are slow to JIT and load all their .NET requirements, but once everything
is loaded, they are fast. If I misunderstanding, please feel free to let me know.

When going to some websites I see my bookmarks showing in status before page loads

On certain websites I get a load slowness. If I look at the status bar I see some of my bookmark toolbar site URL showing before the page I actually typed in to see. Status bar doesn't show actual site I wanted to go to. I deleted the favorite toolbar buttons and site loads fine.
This doesn't happen on all major sites, and not all the time.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.

Correct Endpoint ACL for Azure Websites

Hi Everyone,
I'm currently in the middle of building out my company's DEV environment using Azure Websites and Azure Virtual Machines. When I enable Endpoint ACLs for SQL (1433) on my SQL VM, my website in Azure Websites is no longer able to access it and I can't find
the correct IP to which I should grant access.
I'm really hoping I can do this using Endpoint ACLs rather than needing to resort to Virtual Networks because this is a DEV environment and I want to spend as little as possible which means sticking with the Azure Websites Basic hosting plan rather than
upgrading to Standard which is overkill.
Also, SQL Azure is currently not a viable option because I need database level encryption which is currently unsupported.
Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide.
Ryan

Azure public IP address are published and refreshed at regular intervals it can be found here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=41653
. This information can be provided in the endpoint ACL list

Is it possible to deploy multiple sharepoint provider hosted apps into one azure website??

Is it possible to deploy multiple sharepoint provider hosted apps into one azure website??
Rohit Pasrija

I am faced with a similar requirement although the hosting environment for the provider hosted apps would be an IIS web server in our own infrastructure.
Would it be advisable to use a common IIS website to host multiple apps? The MVC web application which will provide functionality
for the apps is already in place which is why we are checking for options to use the same web project for multiple apps.
Can the web config file's clientID be shared by multiple apps?

Free version of Azure MVC 5 hosting?

Hi. I've been looking to set up
the free version of Azure hosting for MVC 5 (note this is NOT the trial edition available for only 1 month). However, there doesn't seem to be a link to get that option.
This blog post talks about how to sign up for the trial version, but then how do you switch it to the permanent
free version? Is there a settings menu where you switch it to the basic/free account? Your help is appreciated.

Hi,
Firstly, we need clarify the azure websites free mode. Do you want to host your website on Free mode? Base on my experience, free share mode is free. But before you use azure websites service, you need have a azure account secondly, also you could
use the free trail version (http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/free-trial/ ). If you want to convert free trail to permanent free version, I think you may need contact the azure
account support for help,you could try the below channel:
Please contact support team by creating a support ticket at http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/support/contact/
Or if that doesn't work because you don't have an active subscription you will need to contact general customer support to have them create a support ticket for you

Certificate for Azure Websites in the VNET

Hi,
I created a point-to-site connectivity from Azure websites to existing VNET. My Questions are:
1. Eventhough I add more than one website the client count in the Dashboard of the VNET is not showing increment more than 1. What is the reason?
2. How do I change the certificate used by the Azure website that is getting generated while connecting to VNET through point-to-site? It seems it all the websites connecting the VNET using same auto generated certificate. How and Why?
Thanks in Advance,
With Best Regards,
Kasinath

Hi Kasinath,
Where did you create the websites? Are they in the same web hosting plan? Based on my experience, only websites are running on a web hosting plan that’s in the ‘Standard’ pricing tier can be connected to a virtual network. A website can only
be connected to one network at a time and you can only have up to 5 networks configured in your web hosting plan.
In addition, the system will then create a certificate to authenticate with your VNET if it is the first website in your subscription to establish a connection to that network. Why did you want to change the certificate?
The link below maybe helpful to you:

Umbraco site running slow on Azure Websites

I have a site using Umbraco that I recently moved to Azure Websites with a SQL Azure server (first time I've used Azure)for hosting and since moving it there I'm seeing some serious performance issues. The site was hosted on a dev server that we have with
Rackspace and performance was just fine there. But on Azure load times seem to have doubled to tripled on some pages. The pages have that are loading slow have a lot of relational data that I have set up using node to node relations.
For example of load times:
http://tipawards.azurewebsites.net/the-heroes/ - 5384ms on Azure
http://tipheroes.openfieldcreative.com/the-heroes/ - 2548ms on Rackspace
and even worse:
http://tipawards.azurewebsites.net/resources/ - 13872ms on Azure
http://tipheroes.openfieldcreative.com/resources/ - 3193ms on Rackspace
I've tried upgrading both the server and the database and neither seems to have any effect on the load times. The server stats also don't seem to be spiked out. RAM for website stays around 32% and spikes once to 42% while the largest processor spike is
2%. The SQL Azure server spikes at about 22% DTUs. I also have the website set be always on to keep it warm.
I'm at a loss here as to what would be causing such a drastic change in performance.
Any suggestions that anyone could give to speed this up some is greatly appreciated and I'm happy to supply any additional information.
Thanks,
Owen

Creation of Microsoft Azure Website failed. The application already exists

Trying to create a new website, I get this error:
Creating Microsoft Azure Website
Creation of Microsoft Azure Website failed. The application already exists. The remote server returned an unexpected response: (409) Conflict.
I succeeded to create this website earlier on and then I deleted it as I didn't need it anymore.
Now I want to create it again but I get this error even though I've deleted all websites, hosting plans, cloud service, etc from my Azure account.
Any idea on how to fix this?

At this point, I don't know how it happened, but we'll need to dig deeper. I believe there is a sequence that can cause problems if you create a site via Current portal and delete it via Preview, but I'm not sure.
BTW, it seems you have 2 other sites that may be in the same situation (deleted in a way that you couldn't recreated them). They're 'shortl...dev' and 't..d' (not giving full name to avoid squatters!). Do you think you'll want to recreate them later? If
so, we can do the same maneuver to get back to a good state.

There are no more endpoints available on Azure Website

I am just trying to setup a simple web app that pings a IP address and host it on Azure Websites. I have a standard website (not the free tier) and I have web sockets turn ON.
I am just sending a simple ping using the system.net.networkinformation.ping part of the .net api. It runs fine within VS.NET on my machine when deploying local. however when I publish to my azure website, and run it there I get
There are no more endpoints available from the endpoint mapper
I've tried looking on the azure configuration, the only obvious thing I noticed was making sure websockets was turned on. (and it is)
Any ideas? im sure it is some simple configuration and im just missing something? or are there certain things they do not allow from a Azure Website?
Thanks a bunch for looking at my question!
--Ryan

I am afraid, Azure website doesn't support ping, if you need Inbound & Outbound ping, please vote this feedback:

Linking Azure website with Remote mysql database in Cpanel

I am creating an azure website eg calvynlee.azurewebsites.net
In my hosting cpanel account, I create a mysql db & user, in order to link the azure website with this mysql db, I had place a "%" in the remote mysql section.
It works, but when I remove the % from the remote mysql section. Azure website unable show error connection with my database.
Question:
Understand that placing % is allow all remote connection to my database. For security purpose, placing % is not recommended, and placing the website IP address is the most suitable practice.
Unfortunately, I place the website IP (by ping the website and obtain the IP) in remote mysql section is not working.
My cpanel service provider mention that the IP I obtain is not the right IP, there will be another host sever IP
What is the actual IP address I should put? and How to find this right IP?

Hi,
Based on your description, your mysql db is created in cpanel, and want to let the azure website connect with this db, I don't familar with cpanel, in general way the azure website request may be stopped by something, such as firewall etc.., as far as I
know, the azure Hybrid Connections may meet your requirement, you can connect a website on Microsoft Azure to any on-premises resource that uses a static TCP port, such as SQL Server, MySQL, HTTP Web APIs, Mobile Services, and most custom Web Services, refer
to
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-hybrid-connection-get-started/ for more details, hope this helps, if not, please feel free to let me know.

Azure Websites suspended - why, and how do I reactivate it? Cannot submit tech support request

Hello,
Our company has an Microsoft Action Pack subscription. I have an MSDN Subscription allocated to me. Through the MSDN Subscription, I have a monthly $70 Azure credit. I have been using this Azure credit to test Azure Websites.
I have noticed this month (March 2015) that two of my websites are showing "Suspended" in the portal.
I suspect this probably happened in January 2015 when we had a particularly busy testing month and I used up all my Azure credit for the month, however the current status leaves me puzzled:
1. I can't find a specific record of when, or why, the websites were suspended. Can someone tell me how to discover this?
2. If it was due to exhausting my monthly credit, why did they not become re-enabled the following month when my account went back into credit?
3. How do I raise a tech support ticket against this subscription for this problem, or other problems I may have with Azure during my development and testing?
I have had various fruitless phone and email exchanges with Microsoft representatives, often suggesting I purchase technical support for this subscription in order to submit a ticket. As an MSDN subscriber, I shouldn't need to, according to this blog post
from Microsoft:
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/mast/archive/2013/10/24/windows-azure-technical-support-for-msdn-technet-or-mpn-users-and-partners.aspx
However, the process described is not working for me, when it asks for my Contract ID and Access ID, it ignores it and redirects to the same screen without an error message.
As a software developer, it is still challenging to recommend Azure hosting to clients when services become suspended without warning or explanation, and technical support channels are unclear or broken.
Any insight appreciated.
Michael

Hi Cristhian,
Thank you for re-enabling the websites. So, my immediate issue is resolved in that the websites are running again, but I do have a question about the root cause of this issue.
If I use up my monthly credit before the end of the month and the websites get suspended again, will I need to repeat this process to get them re-enabled, or would you expect them to automatically re-enable when my account is back in credit?
I'm still having trouble lodging a technical support request for Azure under my MSDN subscription, but I will include the detail in a reply email to your colleague Sudha.
Thanks,
Michael

Problem with multiple WordPress Azure Websites?

I've been using Azure to host my Wordpress blog for a while with no issues. Today I tried creating a 2nd Wordpress website on Azure though and I'm having a problem.
After setting up the website, when I click on <new blog>.azurewebsites.net I get to a blank white page, if I try <new blog>.azurewebsites.net/wp-admin I get redirected to <existing blog>.azurewebsites.net/wp-login to login to
my existing blog's dashboard.
One thing that might be worth mentioning is that when creating the new blog I used my existing MySQL database. Could that be a problem?

Hi,
Please try to create a new web hosting plan, then create a new wordpress and select this as your web hosting plan, refer to http://blogs.msdn.com/b/benjaminperkins/archive/2014/10/01/azure-website-hosting-plans-whp.aspx

Applicationhost.config updates for HTTP Slow Post with Azure Websites

We are trying to update our Azure websites to not show as vulnerable to the HTTP Slow Post vulnerability. Some articles suggest fixing this by updating the applicationHost.config via IIS to update the connection timeout values. Obviously with Azure websites,
we don't have access to IIS. Came across some options with Kudu and XDT to modify the application host file, as outlined on these two sites:
http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/articles/web-sites-transform-extend/#transform
http://rtigger.com/blog/2014/03/31/number-til-modifying-you-azure-applicationhost-dot-config
Currently am using the following as our applicationHost.xdt (I have this both in our application root, as well as in a SiteExtensions folder as I wasn't clear which one was required).
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration xmlns:xdt="http://schemas.microsoft.com/XML-Document-Transform">
<system.applicationHost>
<sites>
<siteDefaults>
<limits connectionTimeout="00:00:30"
xdt:Transform="Insert" />
</siteDefaults>
<applicationDefaults applicationPool="DefaultAppPool" />
<virtualDirectoryDefaults allowSubDirConfig="true" />
</sites>
<webLimits connectionTimeout="00:00:30"
xdt:Transform="Insert" />
</system.applicationHost>
</configuration>
We also set the WEBSITE_PRIVATE_EXTENSIONS app-setting to 1 as instructed.
When testing our site using a 3rd party tool, it appears the setting is not getting applied. Hoping someone can point out where our error may be. Alternatively, is there any way to see what the current applicationHost.config is for our website? I'm curious
if our XDT is correctly being applied, so if we could see what the resulting file was that may also allow us to further troubleshoot.
Thanks in advance for any advise!

Please see
this page, which has detailed steps on finding your applicationhost.config and finding the logs from the transformation. And please make sure that your applicationhost.xdt is in your
d:\home\site folder (and not in your site\wwwroot).

Azure Storage Used by non-Azure Website

I inherited a MVC EF website that was later converted to Azure for everything. We are taking the Azure Website and Azure SQL Server off Azure however and hosting both on our own servers. However we still want to use Azure Blob storage.
Apparently on my development environment I have to install the Azure SDK for Visual Studio and configure settings using a command prompt. On my local environment I was getting (Azure Reader?) errors relating http://127.0.0.1:10002. When I uploaded
the production site to the new server I getting the same errors. What do I have to configure to get rid of that?
Thank you

Thank you so far!
I fixed that in the web.config file to point to our blob storage account
<add name="AzureReader2" connectionString="DefaultEndpointsProtocol=http;AccountName=blobnuqa;AccountKey=<our account key>endpoint="http://blobnuqa.blob.core.windows.net" prefix="~/azure/" />
and I don't seem the be getting an error.
I have another key in the web.config file however and the settings above generate errors when I point to table storage:
Original:
<add key="TableStorageConnectionString" value="UseDevelopmentStorage=true" />
New:
<add key="TableStorageConnectionString" value="DefaultEndpointsProtocol=http;AccountName=blobnuqa;AccountKey=<our Key>; endpoint="http://blobnuqa.tabel.core.windows.net" />

Fired up my first Azure Website to host some virtual tours... ftp uploading and page loads super slow.
