Hi folks,

I am trying to deploy an azure cloud application on Windows Azure. Application specifications are -->

  1. It has one WebRole - ASP.Net MVC Application (ASP.Net charting control is used in this MVC application)
  2. It does not contain any worker role.
  3. Third party references are set with property "copy Local" to "true"(MVC,ASP Charting control & ASP Provider DLLs)
  4. There is no DiagnosticsConnectionString in service configuration file
  5. It uses ASP provider for session state management.

This application runs successfully on local dev fabric but when I try to deploy it on Windows Azure it gets stuck in a loop with status being changed between Initializing, Busy, Stopping states. It never goes into READY state. It seems that there are no ERROR logs for conveying the deployment issues to user.

So is there any way to diagnose deployment issues ? Is there any way to get deployment ERROR logs ?

Any kind of help will be appreciated.

Thanks, Kushal
