On a project I’m working on at my current job, we need to enable the RDP on azure web role. I've enabled the RDP but client is not being able to connect. We confirmed RDP port is opened as well.
Doesn't client needs to install certificate on his/her machine as well?
No the client doesn't need to install a certificate on their machine. When you deploy a cloud service from Azure you can opt to have an RDP account created at the point of deployment, this will automatically configure the endpoints for 3389 on the instance. Are you sure the client is using the correct case on the password and has their firewall open on 3389?
No it does not. If you're having problems try to download the assistant file that will set up everything BUT your firewall, leaving you to just hit "Connect"

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 setup Jenkins on an Azure instance and it is working with SSL after installing the certificate and configuring Jenkins to use the certificate.
I have setup the ports as below in the Arguments in jenkins.xml file based on my research:
--httpPort=-1 --httpsPort=443
I am able to use https://localhost to run Jenkins, however, I haven't been able to browse it remotely. The server is an Azure instance and has the port 443 open.
Any suggestions?
Please check if the port is open in the virtual machine and on the Azure portal on the VM dashboard.
I'm trying to connect to the remote desktop but i'm getting following errors. I went to the azure portal and my rdp port is open i.e. 3389 as it's showing up in the dashboard.
Remote Desktop can’t connect to the remote computer for one of these reasons:
1) Remote access to the server is not enabled 2) The remote computer is turned off 3) The remote computer is not available on the network
Make sure the remote computer is turned on and connected to the network, and that remote access is enabled.
I actually created twice but still no luck.
Same scenario was happen with me as well. For that i upload the certificate to the windows azure portal. After that i was able to connect to the windows azure cloud service successfully.
I am using a Cloud services running a single worker role with two instances. For almost a year I have been able to connect using RDP.
This week I wanted to connect, but couldn't. The remote desktop connection display the wrong credentials displaying: "Use the following credentials to connect: Password for Admin"
When an deployment is uploaded to the staging environment, I am able to connect. After swapping to the production environment, I cann't connect.
But the old deployment can be connected in the staging environment.
When I set up the connection from another PC, I am able to connect.
I think there is something going on with my PC, but no idea where to look.
Can somebody help me?
It turned out I have checked "Save my credentials" by accident. There was an entry in the Windows Credential Manager.
Deleted the entry, I can connect again.
After creating the RDP account, I had to reimage the webrole (Roles And Instances -> WebRole -> Reimage). After the reimage I was able to connect.
I can't seem to be able to deploy a site to a windows server 2012 r2 running IIS and Web Deploy in Azure VM. I have verified that the port is open, the credentials are correct and the site name as well. I tried using http: and https: also tried using msdeploy.axd end point and the MSDEPLOYAGENTSERVICE one nothing. Check is the services are running and if I can connect to the machine which at can on port 80 to the default site. Tried connecting from multiple connections I get the same result...
Could not connect to the remote computer ("<computer name>.cloudapp.net"). On the remote computer make sure that Web Deploy is installed and that the required process ("Web Deployment Agent Service") is started. Learn more at: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=221672#ERROR_DESTINATION_NOT_REACHABLE. Unable to connect to the remote server.
After dealing with this for about an hour now, I figured out how to fix this on my Azure Virtual Machine.
First the obvious
Check that port 8172 (if you're using default settings) is open in your firewall
Check that the processes MsDepSvc and WMSVC are running.
Check that the site name is correct.
Management Service
In ISS, at the root level of the server, check your settings under Management Service.
It should have Enable Remote Connections checked:
Did you download the full package
This was the one that got me, I hadn't installed everything.
On the bottom of the WebDeploy page: http://www.iis.net/downloads/microsoft/web-deploy
You can download the full package, and then just install everything.
You don't mention if you have an endpoint configured for your Azure VM. If not, make sure you create an endpoint with a private port of 8172.
EDIT: Here is a troubleshooting guide for web deploy that includes the error message you've encountered. Additionally, from my own experience I have managed to mistype the site name and not install .NET and seeing similar errors.
Helpful but in the end in our case it was TLS mismatch. Check both machines can do TLS 1.2 if you are forcing it. Have put more detail here https://fuseit.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000328595. Cheers
