I am trying to open port 8080 in a Windows Azure virtual machine. I have a test website listening in that port, and I am able to access it via localhost, so the website is running.
I have also opened the port in the firewall and created an inbound security rule in azure portal for the virtual machine, but the port doesn't seem to be open to the outside world. I have tried accessing it both via the IP address and the DNS with the same results.
Is there anything else I should be doing?

I cannot seem to connect to my website running on Azure VM. I have looked through every single Azure docs.
I allowed incoming connections to port 80 per documentation:
I have a very basic Hello World nodejs app listening on port 80 (i confirmed this app works locally my own system):
I am attempting to connect to the site via the Public IP assigned to me that i see in Azure Portal:
The problem is any attempt to connect to 40.XXX.XXX.230:80 in Chrome simply times out.
I am new to VM's but i think something is wrong with port forwarding?
Another thing to check:
Remote desktop into the virtual machine, and confirm that the virtual machine's local firewall allows incoming HTTP and HTTPS connections.
I've setup an Ubuntu Server on Azure. On this server, an application is running on port 3000. I want to access this application external. Azure tells me my server has public ip 40.68.XXX.XXX.
When I ping this IP, there is no response, despite ssh works when connecting to this IP-address.
I want to access 40.68.XXX.XXX:3000 external, does somebody know how to get this work?
Yes, you need to open up a port on the Network Security Group (NSG) and open up the port on your firewall (on the VM itself).
Easiest way to open the port is using the portal:

I have a Windows Server 2012 virtual machine provisioned on Azure. I installed Neo4j server on this virtual machine and I'm accessing the Neo4j browser on localhost:7474.
However I cannot access the browser outside using my virtual machine's public IP e.g <machineIP:7474>
Here's what I have done so far:
In the Azure portal, I added inbound rules for the NSG to allow http and https ports 80 and 443 (I have done the same on a Linux virtual machine also hosted in Azure and I can access the browser just fine)
I also added an inbound rule in Windows Firewall to allow Port 80 and 443 as well
What possibly blocks me from accessing the virtual machine's IP from the outside?
You have to add TCP port 7474 to the firewall in the Azure portal:
change your neo4j-server.properties
set
org.neo4j.server.webserver.address=0.0.0.0
To remotely access Neo4j installed on a Windows VM in Azure, these are the changes you'll need to make:
In the Azure portal, add TCP port 7474 to the Endpoints of your Windows VM
On your Windows VM, in the Windows Firewall Advances Security, add a new Inbound Rule for port 7474
Change the conf/neo4j.conf and uncomment this line:
org.neo4j.server.webserver.address=0.0.0.0
Note: In case you also want full access to Neo4j's browse interface including Bolt, then also add port 7687 both in the Azure Endpoints and the Windows Firewall.
I set a new port by Add EndPoints option but it does not open that specific port on azure virtual machine.... i checked using following link
can any one tell me how to resolve this issue?

TCPSockets endpoint is not open on my virtual machine
Add-AzureEndpoint opens a port at the Azure firewall not your at your VM's side. That means after opening the port in Azure, you have to open the port at your VM's individual firewall, too. Depending on your operating system that could be done differently. E.g. in Windows Server you would configure the Windows Firewall.
More precisely, Add-AzureEndpoint create a port forwarding rule from the specified public port to the private port you have specified for your VM.
I am using Azure Virtual Machine (Windows Server 2008 R2 image) provided from the gallery and created Public port and private port using the portal. I did remote log in to VM and I run a TCP server application inside VM (TCP server binds to the private port of the VM). Problem I face is that I can not connect it through the public IP and port (from external machine). I have created a inbound rule in VM's Firewall, where I enable connection to the Private port of VM. I tried recreating the VM, also the new ports. Still problem persists. One more thing I observed is that my TCP Client is able to connect to RemoteDesktop port of the VM also the PowerShell port. But does not connect to the port that I created through the portal. Pls suggest what can be wrong?
Note: I also observed some weird behavior. I enabled all ports for my TCP Server app in Inbound rule of firewall and found that some unknown IP (was similar to azure internal IP) is connecting to my server. Why it is happening?
I would like to understand as to how you are trying to connect with the Virtual Machine, using RDP or trying to test the connectivity, for example, using Port Ping.
Endpoints for RDP and Powershell are configured by default. So if you are trying to connect using Remote Desktop, you can directly connect to the VM using MSTSC from Run and provide the IP of the VM followed by the Port Number using the below format
xx.xx.xx.xx:3389
However if you would like to test the connectivity to the VM, I suggest you to use Port Ping instead of ICMP ping since ICMP traffic is blocked by the Azure load balancer and the ping requests timeout. While Ping.exe uses ICMP, other tools such as PsPing, Nmap, or Telnet allow you to test connectivity to a specific TCP port.
On the other hand, after creating the VM, you can add endpoints additionally as needed. You can also manage incoming traffic to the public port by configuring rules for the Network Access Control List (ACL) of the endpoint.
The private port is used internally by the virtual machine to listen for traffic on that endpoint.
The public port is used by the Azure load balancer to communicate with the virtual machine from
external resources. After you create an endpoint, you can use the network access control list
(ACL) to define rules that help isolate and control the incoming traffic on the public port. For
more information, see About Network Access Control Lists.
