Windows Azure Blob Container keeps resetting to Private

Joel Dahlin asked on March 30, 2014 19:02

I have a site that I am running in Windows Azure Cloud Services. I am using the Kentico Azure application. All of my images and assets are stored in Cloud Storage under a container called cmsstorage. I need this to be public for the images on the site to load. I set it to public in the Azure portal, but it continues to revert to Private.

Is there something I am missing?

Hi Joel, you have to configure container to public in Kentico using the web.config key CMSAzurePublicContainer (key must be set to true). Kentico will always configure container publicity based on this key value on Application start.

Dominik, I forgot to mention I do have that key set to true. Any other ideas?

Joel and Dominik, I ran into this issue as well and adding the CMSAzurePublicContainer setting to the cloud config fixes it.

Add the following to your ServiceDefinition Configuration Settings for your CMSApp role:

        <ConfigurationSettings>
        <Setting name="CMSAzurePublicContainer" />
        </ConfigurationSettings>

Then add the following to your ServiceConfiguration.Cloud and ServiceConfiguration.Local:

        <ConfigurationSettings>
        <Setting name="CMSAzurePublicContainer" value="true" />
        </ConfigurationSettings>

Thanks Paul. It turns out that is what I did have configured, but I didn't have it in my web.config like Dominik suggested. I've updated and trying now. Thanks to the both of you.
