I'm new to Azure; I wanted to take advantage of being able to run PrestaShop (e-commerce software) and Azure marketplace has single VM plan. I followed this video and got it up and running. Trouble is to login to the site's Admin interface you need to know the secret folder that is randomly created by the installer. I have tried the Azure Storage Explorer , but nothing useful is displayed. I also tried to login using putty and SSH, but keep getting access denied. I suspect I need to configure an endpoint for port 22, as described here in order to get ftp working, but apparently this is not possible with a free subscription (?).
Any help as to how I can find that folder name would be appreciated.
With Azure Free Trial Subscription, I can successfully login into the PrestaShop Azure Linux VM without any issue.
Note: No need to configure an endpoint for port 22.
To connect to your Linux virtual machine using SSH, use the following command: ssh username#IPAddress and password.
If you are facing an issue with your login, you can reset the password.

I have an Azure Virtual Machine connected with Azure Active Directory. A user from this AD is added to this machine as an admin. Other people can successfully RDP to the machine with this user's credential, but I get error saying "The user account used to connect to remote PC did not work. Try again". Well, I am trying the whole day. Does anyone know what can cause this?
The fun fact is, I can RDP to the machine using the local admin, but again it fails with AD user.
I tried connecting with Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac, mstsc for Windows and with Remote Desktop Connection Manager. The same result everywhere.
I tried different usernames format:
alex.sikilinda#mydomain.com - other people can successfully login using this format
AzureAD\alex.sikilinda#mydomain.com - for windows client getting the same error, for Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac getting "Your session ended because of an error. If this keeps happening, contact your network administrator for assistance. Error code: 0x807"
AzureAD\AlexSikilinda mstsc error - "Remote machine is AAD joined. If you are signing in to your work account, try using work email instead", Mac - "Your session ended because of an error. If this keeps happening, contact your network administrator for assistance. Error code: 0x807"
Microsoft Remote Desktop for Mac version 10.2.3 (1343)
Windows 10 version 16299 (also tried with 1803 on another machine, the same result).
I also came across the same error for the win10 that is AAD join, and I tried the following way to solve this:
Change VM Remote desktop settings same as the picture
Create a new RDP config file
Open mstsc.exe, click on Show Options and then click Save As(give it a new name such as AzureAD_RDP, save it somewhere easy to find).
Open the saved file using Notepad. Verify that the following two lines are present, if not, add them, and save.
enablecredsspsupport:i:0
authentication level:i:2
RDP to the target VM
Open the RDP config file that you just edited, enter the IP address of the VM, do not enter any username, and then connect.
Here you could use AzureAD\UPN or username to log in.
I haven't tried disabling the NLA (and wouldn't recommend), however in my case was the legacy MFA getting in the way of getting into the VM, even if only enabled for the account, and not forced.
In my case, we're using the Conditional Access with MFA, but we have to exclude the VM from the cloud apps (Azure Windows VM Sign-In), because we're not using Windows Hello (thanks Microsoft for a half baked solution!).

I had deployed magento directly on Microsoft azure platform using BITNAMI(Linux platform), Everything works cool instead i cant able to access the physical directories of mlinux machine. Due to that facing trouble with installing the theme.
If you want access to the filesystem inside the machine where you're running your application, you should connect to your Azure instance via SSH. For example, you can follow this guide.
Also, if you want to know how to obtain your credentials, you can follow this guide.
get your key file or credentials to access the server via SSH / SFTP
confirm SSH PORT ( 22 or 8888 )
in bitnami, Magento is located at : /opt/bitnami/apps/magento/htdocs/
make sure to allow firewall settings for port ( SSH )
you can find all information here
I am trying to setup OrientDb instance under Azure. I followed the procedure documented at OrientDB website (OrientDB Community Edition 2.0.10). I was able to setup the instance as described. After setting up all I could do is to ssh to the instance using the username:db as mentioned in the document (well I could have used any name, but for simplicity I followed word to word from the doc). I couldn't find information on user:root or user:orientdb (and a few other users and groups) that were part of this image. Additional users/groups are available in /etc/passwd. I am unable to get access to those users/groups. I am unable to find the documentation.
I tried to connect to the OrientDb web interface http://10.0.0.4:2480 (hosted on internal network interface within Azure region) and it doesn't even allow me to create db or login. It keeps asking for the username and password which I dont know (not documented).
Anyone know where can I found additional documentation/help on this image.
I can always setup a plain linux OS, install java and setup orient-db and configure it to use azure storage (bound as local disk storage). As much as possible, I would like to use the image provided by the orient-db team as I think it would come with recommended configuration.
I want to host/run a clustered orientdb instance on Azure. Any help is appreciated
You'll need to ssh to the virtual machine using the username and password that you specified when you created the Azure instance.
To obtain the credentials for Studio, Pabzt is right, just take a look at the sections of orientdb-server-config.xml and look for the root user. Its password will be auto-generated. You can change this.
Pabzt, regarding accessing Studio, you might make sure the OrientDB instance is still runnning:
sudo systemctl status orientdb
Usually, ports 22 and 2480 are open by default in the OrientDB Azure image. So, it's strange you can't access it.
I had the same problem today. You could connect using ssh. The default password and username can be found in the "orientdb-server-config.xml":
/opt/orientdb/config/orientdb-server-config.xml
The only thing i can't do is accessing the OrientDB Studio. While i can connect to the public ip address of the vm using ssh, i cant open the OrientDB Studio on port 2480 using the same public ip address. I tried adding an inbound securty rule in the network security settings for the orientdb vm but that didn't help. Still can't connect.
EDIT 22.10.2015 21:00
But I'm sure the password and username is working (from "orientdb-server-config.xml"), because i tried using the binary protocol on port 2424 with the "official .Net Driver" for OrientDB in a client application written in C#, and they worked. I was able to connect and create a new Database. Also i was able to access the default database: "GratefulDeadConcerts". I used the same public ip address that i used to connect via ssh.
I compared the OrientDB VM created by the image from the azure marketplace and couldn't find the option to set Endpoints (Azure VM Settings). All my other Azure VMs have this option in the Azure VM Settings. I always used the Endpoint settings to open ports on the virtual machines i have. It seems that i can only use the Endpoints for ssh and port 2424. Maybe those are the ones which are open by default. Any Ideas?
EDIT 23.10.2015 14:00 Uhr
Okay i found the solution, the OrientDB image from the azure marketplace works. I just added a new securty rule that allows connections from any port (*) to port 2480 (OrientDB Studio) and now it works.
I had this problem and realized I had missed something. On Azure go to All Resources, click on the Network Security Group for your server, and add an Inbound Security Rule allowing TCP port 2480. I didn't have to add anything using iptables on the server even though 2480 is not listed there. I hope this helps someone else.
The endpoints, by default are set to 22 and 2480. Strange that you had to set 2480 to * for incoming. But I'm glad you got it to work!
The root in the orientdb-server-config.xml is just for OrientDB and is not related to the system root account.
You should be able to sudo as the system username that you specified when you created the Azure VM. If you can sudo commands you should be able to change the system root password as well.
I am trying to host the neo4j server on an Azure Ubuntu VM and opened up the endpoint to enable access from my machine so that I can access the webadmin portal and also debug Asp.net portal code from my machine.
I am however unable to understand how to password protect the access to neo4j endpoint on that VM so that its not open for everyone on the net. looking for at least a simple protection like:
http://<user>:<pass>#myneo4j.cloudapp.net:7474/db/data
Is there any guide on how to setup the neo4j on the Azure cloud that I can refer to.
I found authentication-extension but unable to understand if this is all i need when setting up connection via Neo4jClient
Regards
Kiran
If you use ubuntu you can set up nginx as reverse proxy: http://joewhite86.wordpress.com/2013/05/29/secure-neo4j-webadmin-using-http-auth-and-ssl/
Once I downloaded the right version of 'authentication-extension' and put it in the plugin folder, it was exactly what i wanted,
added few users and pointed the URI to database as below :
http(s)://<user>:<pass>#myneo4j.cloudapp.net:7474/db/data.
and that's all I needed to protect my back end like old fashion SQL server ways.
I am not able to connect to Azure via a webapp deployed in tomcat.
I am getting the below error though i am sending the correct input for the keystore pwd.
"Keystore was tampered with, or password was incorrect"
Plz comment.
When you try connecting to Windows Azure Management Portal, using Service Management API, the connectivity is created over SSL tunnel and a certificate is used to create the SSL tunnel.
I would suggest first that, it is not a Windows Azure specific problem, it is more of a Java/Tomcat related issue mainly happening because while selecting the certificate to create the SSL tunnel the code met with some problem.
To solve this problem, I can suggest the following:
In your VM/Physical machine, where Tomcat web application is running try to locate the physical keystore file first and delete it.
After that try creating keystore with correct password and setup that password properly in your Tomcat configuration
Trustcacerts password was supplied wrongly ! Now it works
