Hi, when i debug my Azure project i.e . I hit F5 a dialog box pops up saying

"Windows Azure Tools for Visual Studio. Can't find service descriptions"

I am stuck here..please help me out..

Hello The Dreamweaver,

Thanks for your question.

Does reinstalling Azure SDK & Tools solve the issue? Please check http://www.microsoft.com/windowsazure/sdk/ to download the latest installer.

Does creating a new azure service project with a simple web role solve the issue? This will help us ensure that it is a Azure SDK & Tools issue and not the problem of your code or configuration. 

Are you using web role or worker role? Different suggestions will be provided depending on the role you are using.

I'm glad to provide assistance if the issue is still not resolved.

Thanks,

Hi Wenchao,

Re-installing Azure SDK DID resolve the issue.

Thanks a ton for you suggestions.

Same here, after reinstall, new simple project works, but my old project does not. There is something in configuration :-(

Here is the solution I found: 

• Right click on the Solution <project name> (should be the highest level item in the Solution Explorer)
• Select Properties (on the very bottom)
• In the left-hand panel, select Configuration Properties.
• Check the Build boxes for all the items on the list.
• That should do the trick.

Why is it so difficult to get simple cloud service working? I have created new cloud service with the worker role and I already got 3 errors and it still does not work.

1) I needed to create the 'Debug setup' folder in csx

2) Its not picking up the 'local' config. Hence I had to create the ServiceConfiguration.cscfg file.

3) Now I cant proceed further as I get "Microsoft Azure Tools: Can't locate service descriptions."

BTW I have done the repair and reinstall of Azure toolkit v2.6 for VS2013 ultimate edition.

Could anyone pls tell me why it so hackey. Am I doing something wrong here?

Any help quickly would be appreciated. This is very urgent.
