Continuous deployment in Azure and GitHub not working

Question

I set up continuos deployment with Azure and GitHub according to the document here . Everything seems to be working. I get an Active Deployment tab with a success message and when I push changes to my GitHub repository Azure recognizes it and does the update.

But the link to my Java and Tomcat app isn't working. This is the link (with a different name but the structure is identical): http://myapp.azurewebsites.net/AppName

When I use FTP to manually upload the war file to webapps the link does work.

What am I missing?

EDIT: It looks like the automatic scripts put my project into wwwroot but not in wwwroot/bin/apache-tomcat/webapps. Should I modify the script or copy it there myself?

Answer 1

If you want to deploy to a subfolder, try setting SCM_TARGET_PATH=wwwroot/bin/apache-tomcat/webapps in the site's AppSettings (in the portal).

See this page for details.
