Getting "Server failed to parse the parking page." when creating a web app

Question

Getting "Server failed to parse the parking page." when creating a web app

Robin Becker 1

I tried creating my first test web app for windows on my azure for students subscription. When visiting the page I don't get the place holder page that the guide I'm following tells me that I should get. Instead I just get a row of text saying "Server failed to parse the parking page.".

Any idea why? I didn't get any errors when creating the app.

@Robin Becker , thank you for your interest in Azure Web Apps.

Is the guide you're trying to follow publicly available? If so, can you please share it with us?

Have you tried using KUDU CMD to verify that your site files were successfully added to the web app?

In the meantime, have you tried using the diagnose and solve blade of your web app? This blade provides the same features that a support engineer would use to troubleshoot issues on your web app. I would suggest specifically looking at the availability and performance tool in the blade.

We look forward to your reply.
