My Azure web role currently contains lots of bugs and throws exceptions from OnStart()

My Azure web role currently contains lots of bugs and throws exceptions from OnStart(). Once an exception is thrown Azure runtime starts the role again. That’s not convenient for me – the role OnStart() runs to exactly the same point and crashes again and this continues forever. I’d rather have it stopped once it crashes.

Can I somehow ask Azure runtime to not restart my role once OnStart() crashes with an exception?

    It seems a bit heavy handed, but you could try using the management API and stop the whole role in the try catch.

    Personally I think it’s much easier to just use Thread.Sleep(Timeout.Infinite) as smarx suggests
