I'm trying to create Web App which is just having a Static HTML. I'm following this link https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/app-service-web-get-started-html. But when I execute the following command
az webapp up --location westeurope --name .
Got the error - " Could not auto-detect the runtime stack of your app" .
I just tried following the steps mentioned in the documentation. Works for me.
mkdir quickstart
cd quickstart
git clone https://github.com/Azure-Samples/html-docs-hello-world.git
cd html-docs-hello-world
az webapp up --location westeurope --name azurewebapptest123
I have tried the similar steps using the sample repo and was able to reproduce it.
Here is the version:
It's a known bug for Azure CLI 2.0.78 and team is working on it, Which you can track it here:
https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/azure-docs/issues/43633
Work around of this issue is to use the older version of Azure CLi e.g. 2.0.75 * for deploying the solution.
Hope it helps.
I tried the following, but added the --html flag at the end of the az webapp up command to bypass auto detection:
mkdir quickstart
cd quickstart
git clone https://github.com/Azure-Samples/html-docs-hello-world.git
cd html-docs-hello-world
az webapp up --location westeurope --name azurewebapptest123 --html
That forces HTML. In the help for the command it implies auto-detection works for a bunch of language, but not for static HTML.
Try to manually include a web.config file and/or select the stack on General Settings:
If you have no backend, the best option to host a static site is through Azure Storage:
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/storage/blobs/storage-blob-static-website
I had the same problem. I solved it by using the flag --html
to define explicitly the runtime according to the documentation of the runtime detection. https://github.com/Azure/app-service-linux-docs/blob/master/AzWebAppUP/runtime_detection.md
So, the solution is the following line of code:
az webapp up --location westeurope --name <name> --html
N.B: I used Azure cloud shell.
Make sure you're running the command "az webapp up --location westeurope --name" from your application root, ie inside 'html-docs-hello-world' folder.
