  1. I still seem to be getting problem even having independantly tried both methods. I’ve confirmed the files are being copied to the bin (before being packaged) and am able run the cmd scripts on the local machine. But once I try to use it in the cloud the same error pops up. Anyway ideas?

  2. Make sure the Microsoft.IdentityModel.dll is set to copy local, and add more debugging info to the command script to figure out if there is a directory wrong.

    Log in with Remote Desktop and run the Command script from the bin folder to see if it is executed.

    Most problems are folder related.

  3. The first one did not work for me, because my machine is a 32 bit and Windows Azure is 64 bit.
    In the second one, I was not sure whether Azure is Windows Server 2008 or Windows Server 2008 R2. I tried Windows6.0-KB974405-x64.msu and the problem got solved for me. Thanks for this blog.
