No luck running 3.0.0.rc9 under Azure

I think I see the issue. Can you post the output of ifconfig on your box? I suspect your address doesn’t exist.

Based on the below:

Db: /datadrive/eventStore/db
LogsDir: /datadrive/eventStore/logs
ExtIp: 157.56.178.22 <— no you can’t bind to this as it doesnt exist on the local machine (bind to your local ip (the one in ifconfig))
HttpPrefixes:
- http://v1eventstore.cloudapp.net:2113/ <— may be ok but also add your external ip
RunProjections: ALL

DNS NAME
V1EVENTSTORE.CLOUDAPP.NET

HOST NAME
V1EventStore
PUBLIC VIRTUAL IP (VIP) ADDRESS
157.56.178.22
INTERNAL IP ADDRESS
10.215.66.97

Here’s our current config:

Db: /datadrive/eventStore/db
LogsDir: /datadrive/eventStore/logs
ExtIp: 157.56.178.22
HttpPrefixes:
- http://v1eventstore.cloudapp.net:2113/
RunProjections: ALL

Thanks James,
this is the info:

Yup, you need to bind to the IP that exists and add the other one as an http prefix as well as whatever DNS name you have.

Email me off list with the running config and I’ll see what I can do tomorrow

Solved!

I guess since the external DNS entry doesn’t exist internally to the azure machine, I had to do this and then it started working:

The server is turned off at the moment, but it came up and I was able to click around and see streams.

Thanks Greg and James for your help in tracking this down.

If you like I can document this somewhere for people. Just point me in the right direction.
