Media Library files not uploading to azure blob storage

Have you checked the event log for errors/issues? Have you tried using something like CloudBerry to connect to Blob storage to ensure your credentials work and permissions are set properly?

Sir I already checked the event log but the event log said that it was successfullly uploaded to the file system directory. I also placed a break point on the attribute in the code but also the code was fired when the application starts.

Then I'd suggest running through the setup again and making sure you have all the pieces setup properly. If your website is hosted in Azure then you might want to also do a restart on the website after you have made your changes.

Again, check you're able to access blob using the credentials using CloudBerry too.

Thanks sir. I'll try. I update you once my problem was solve.

Sir do I need to add this code <add key="CMSExternalStorageName" value="azure" /> in the web.config file ? Because my only goal was to use azure as my media library blob storage ?

Hi was there ever I resolution for this? I have the same issue.

I can access blob storage using CloudBerry, no file are available

I have checked the logs when uploading an image and there are no errors (see event log detail below)

I have restarted the application and can see the code getting hit on initialize.

Yet when I upload it stores the image at the local path, rather than blob storage.

Running Kentico 9 .net 4.6.2 locally attached to Azure SQL database, just trying to set media items only for blob storage

I have all required setting in web.config

<add key="CMSAzureAccountName" value="vectorwebstoragedev" />
<add key="CMSAzureSharedKey" value="################" />
<add key="AzureContainerMediaPath" value="vectordev" />
