We are trying to deploy Umbraco 7.1.4 as a PaaS instance in Azure. Currently we have tried to package Umbraco source code in a .cspkg like we would normally do for an Azure hosted website, but ran into issues trying to access the website saying that a server error occurred and This is most likely due to an error during application startup.
We were going to try and use the Azure Accelerator project on codeplex (http://azureaccelerators.codeplex.com/releases) but can't tell if it works correctly for 7.1.4 because it was created when Umbraco was on v4.
All of the documentation I have looked for has sort of been outdated. Can anyone point me to an upgraded guide on how to deploy Umbraco 7+ in Azure?
Many thanks. Those seem to walkthrough how to set it up in Azure creating a new website from a gallery; however, I am looking for a way to package up my Umbraco site as a .cspkg to deploy to Azure manually.
So does the Accelerator tool need to be used to deploy Umbraco to Azure, or can you use standard Azure project and package it up on it's own as a .cspkg like you would for a normal website you are packaging up to Azure?
I don't think that's going to work, the accelerator is wildly outdated and most people agree that it's not advisable or feasible to deploy Umbraco that way. Would advise to watch this video for proper reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U7dVUHtpd_k
Deploying Umbraco 7.1.4 to Microsoft Azure
Hello,
We are trying to deploy Umbraco 7.1.4 as a PaaS instance in Azure. Currently we have tried to package Umbraco source code in a .cspkg like we would normally do for an Azure hosted website, but ran into issues trying to access the website saying that a server error occurred and This is most likely due to an error during application startup.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
