Question

I get 500 internal server error in Windows Azure (on localhost too) if I deploy a simple program which connects to Blob storage:

<?php
$blob = new Microsoft_WindowsAzure_Storage_Blob(
    'blob.core.windows.net',
    '##storage_account##',
    '##storage_key##'
);

$blob->createContainerIfNotExists('img');

$blob->listBlobs('img');
?>

If I don’t use blob but only SQL access or a simple phpinfo() than everything is OK.

Answer 1

Make sure you have included the phpAzure SDK files.

This would be something like the following at the top of your file:

require_once 'Microsoft/WindowsAzure/Storage/Blob.php';

For this you should have the phpAzure SDK ( http://phpazure.codeplex.com/ ) somewhere in your include path or in the current directory.

Hope that helps!
