I have several Azure functions published and all but 2 of them work fine. The two that don't work are named "AdminData" and "AdminImage" and will be used to feed data to an administrative page. The code compiles fine, deploys fine, everything in the Azure dashboard looks fine but when I try calling them I always get the 404 Not Found error.
It turns out the issue is that an Azure function name can't start with "Admin". I only found this out after hours of trial and error because no errors or warnings were thrown when the code was compiled or deployed. A subsequent search once I knew what the problem was turned up an issue report in github so it's a known problem;
Cannot have [FunctionName] starting with 'admin' #141
This was a very frustrating problem that took a lot of time to figure out so hopefully, this post will help someone else avoid this trap.

I know it sounds a lot like other issues here in Stackoverflow, bear with me, it's not (not that I could tell)
I have a scraping app (using Puppeteer) that I use to scrape an Amazon public page.
It works great, I've debugged it by setting the headless: false and I see it works, and it gives me back the expected result.
The same app fails on Heroku, but the problem is not with launching or using Puppeteer (I have several indications), but probably because I'm being identified as a robot.
The error returned is:
waiting for selector `#link_continue input` failed: timeout 30000ms exceeded
Important to say that the error is a generic Puppeteer error that indicates that the selector I'm waiting for just doesn't appear on-page.
I know it should as it's a selector on the first page I navigate to, and it works locally (as mentioned before) - the selector always exists if the page loads.
I had the exactly same error when I've tried to run the scraping on my local machine before setting a User-Agent header. But at that time I could use the headless:false so I saw in my eyes that I'm being rejected due to illegal operations on their page (robots-like operations) so I was redirected to an error page that didn't contain this selector on it.
For this reason, I suspect it recognizes me as a robot, but I don't know how to debug it, it drives me crazy.
Now, if you'd like to reproduce the problem:
You need to wait for the mentioned selector on this site:
https://sellercentral.amazon.com/hz/fba/profitabilitycalculator/index
and then deploy it to Heroku and try to run it maybe 2-3 times
** Two questions: **
How can I proceed from here, I'm 99.9% sure it's the same issue I had previously, but I can't verify... any suggestions?
Given that this is actually the problem, can anyone suggest an easy-to-use/deploy hosting that also allow easy VPN configuration? I think Heroku doesn't give you to do that unless you have an enterprise account
Thanks
I would like to point out that Amazon is very good at blocking IPs. It is very likely that they already blacklisted IPs of cloud services like Heroku, Azure, etc... Previously I have observed services like Cloudflare, Akamai etc... blacklisting these known IPs.
In this scenario Rotating proxies could help you to avoid getting blocked.
When I try to open a Logic App Ressouce I get the following error message:
When I reload the page multiple times it works sometimes, but just for the moment. As soon as I try to edit or run a logic app, I get the same error.
Already looked at the health status and logic app logs. But without any results.
Does anybody have a solution for this?
I have been in contact with Azure Support regarding the same issue and according to them there is an issue in West Europe that is causing this. A workaround is to use another region if applicable. I have been able to use Central US without any issue.
I have a webservice that is https based. It works fine but some times (randomly), it returns this error: "-21466927208 The download of the specified resource has failed"
When this happens I reset the IIS, and also the service of this webservice. But nothing gets solved. But the most strange is that after a while it solves without doing anything.
Before the call of this webservice, the program makes a call to another webservice non-https, that works perfecly (alltime). So the problem is obviously with the https based webservice.
Im completely lost...
The problem was, there where 2 sites in the same domain so the IIS did the balancer, and therefore sometimes it worked, and sometimes not.
Changing the bindings did the trick.
Hope this can help others!
I am finding we receive this error:
Failed to invoke 'CreateChatRequest' due to an error on the server. HubException: Method does not exist.
at _this.callbacks.<computed> (chat.min.js:2060)
at HubConnection.processIncomingData (chat.min.js:2154)
at WebSocketTransport.HubConnection.connection.onreceive (chat.min.js:1881)
at WebSocket.webSocket.onmessage (chat.min.js:3922)
The method does exist. The code does work, then after a while of testing, it returns this and won't stop.
What seems to temporarily fix the issue is restarting the Azure SigR service, but it comes back. This issue does not occur when targeting local SigR during development; it only happens against Azure SigR.
According to documentation, this seems to be a catchall error when something errors up on the server but, no exceptions are being logged. I've turned on detailed errors, but that didn't change the error coming back from the server. I've also tried catching the exception and sending back a HubException to see what is going on, but that didn't change the error message either.
TIA for any help.
So the answer, for me, was that i'd checked in (to source control) my azure service's connection string, so other devs were also using this and pointing their versions of the API service at that azure service. So when i ran my code sometimes azure would hit my API service with the new method in and it would work, sometimes it would hit someone else's API service and so fail because their code didn't have the new method in.
has anyone seen this before so I am getting a 502 bad gateway error on my app, the issue I have is that the detailed error information I am getting says my requested url is https://SOX:80/api however my site is configured to use https://sox.domain.com and the site largely works pulling the various JS files required
my app service name is SOX in the azure dashboard so I assume that is where it is picking up SOX from but I have no idea why it is using this.
So overall the issue had me perplexed... however with more testing I soon figured out what was going on.
my backend is Dotnet core Azure throwing the 502 bad gateway was its way of handling exceptions ultimately the problem was code based.
I am mentioning this purely so that it will help others
my first issue was based on cert handling it seems dotnet runs in a container that is specified by your app name as i mentioned above https://SOX:80
the below was causing my issues
sslPolicyErrors = X509StoreStoreHelper.ValidateSSLPolicy(cert.Thumbprint, cert);
after commenting this out for testing my problem went away(we are putting in a proper fix )
my second issue came from using an unsupported view in Azure SQL master.sys.master_files which again just threw a 502 bad gateway error referencing https://SOX:80
please note I have used https://SOX:80 as a reference to mask the real site.
hope this helps the next person.
Based on your description, I have checked your site (https://sox.azurewebsites.net/) and found that it contains three static files (index.html,generic.html,elements.html). I viewed your website in Chrome incognito window as follows:
I did not find any requests against https://SOX:80/api in your html page or JavaScript files. Please try to access your website in a new incognito window to isolate the cache issue or just press CTRL + F5 to refresh your current page to narrow this issue. Moreover, you need to check whether you have configured URL Rewrite. If you still could not solve this issue, you need to update your question with the details for us to reproduce this issue.
