Unable to install windows azure SDK in windows pho

Question

I am unable to install windows azure SDK on windows phone app from nuget .. I am getting the following message Could not install package 'Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ConfigurationManager 2.0.3'. You are trying to install this package into a project that targets 'WindowsPhone,Version=v8.0', but the package does not contain any assembly references or content files that are compatible with that framework. For more information, contact the package author.

I have seen tutorials with windows azure storage and windows phone http://tapanila.net/windows-azure-storage-sdk-now-supports-windows-phone-8/

Answer 1

You're trying to install NuGet package for full .Net application. For Windows 8/Windows Phone 8 application, there's another package you would need to install which is Windows Azure Storage 3.0.2-preview which you can install via Nuget Command Line using the following command:

Install-Package WindowsAzure.Storage-Preview

Or look here for more instructions on installing this package: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/documentation/articles/mobile-services-windows-phone-upload-data-blob-storage/ (scroll down to the section titled Install the Storage client for Windows Store apps).
