PowerShell error: Set-AzureDeployment : CurrentStorageAccountName is not set - azure

Question

I need deploy package (mvc site) from powershel script to azure. But when I start script, I see that it doesn't work. The powershell show that Azure Cloud Service deploy script finished, but in fact doesn't any change. Can you help me to fix it?
This is my powershell command:

Answer 1

It is -CurrentStorageAccountName and you used it as -CurrentStorageAccount with Set-AzureSubscription cmdlet. So include name.

Answer 2

I had the issue too and it turns out that the active subscription is not updated with the storage info.
After the Set-AzureSubscription line you should add
Select-AzureSubscription $selectedsubscription
Added a pull request at https://github.com/Azure/azure-content/pull/2115

Answer 3

The error pretty much tells you what is going on (bold is mine) -
1/13/2014 1:12 AM - Upgrading Deployment: In progress
Set-AzureDeployment : CurrentStorageAccountName is not set. Use
Set-AzureSubscription subname -CurrentStorageAccountName storageaccount to set
it.
In the context the script is running the default storage account to use is not set.
You can set it using Set-AzureSubscription which I do not see being called anywhere in your script.

Answer 4

Link to original script: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/cloud-services-dotnet-continuous-delivery/
Please, check the Windows Azure Subscription name: in my case it was not "default".
So you have to edit the $selectedsubscription param in the script with the name of the right subscription. You can get it using Get-AzureSubscription command.
