Tailspin sample from wag.codeplex.com

Question

Can anyone shed any light on getting the TailSpin example project to execute. I've downloaded it from wag.codeplex.com , run the pre-req checker and gotten everything green, read the readme's and dropped the right libraries in the right places (I think)...anyway, to the extent that it builds with no errors. 1 warning and 33 Messages

It compiles, starts, global.aspx is executed and then nothing happens. Nothing is returned to the browser. I'm guessing this is because of the issues (below) in web.config - but what to do to fix it ?

Answer 1

After feedback from the owners at wag.codeplex.com it seems that the source on codeplex is out of date. You need to get it from Here However its not tested with the current version of Azure.
