Why is GetEnvironmentVariable() returning the wrong directory for my RoleRoot in Windows Azure? -


i trying create worker role project windows azure loads custom exe upon startup. adapted code david chou's jetty server example found here:

http://blogs.msdn.com/b/dachou/archive/2010/03/21/run-java-with-jetty-in-windows-azure.aspx

using visual web developer 2010, created new cloud project visual c# , dropped in worker role class code shown here:

namespace workerrole1 {     public class workerrole : roleentrypoint     {         public override void run()         {             string response = "";             string s = "";              try             {                 system.io.streamreader sr;                 string port = roleenvironment.currentroleinstance.instanceendpoints["httpin"].ipendpoint.port.tostring();                 string roleroot = environment.getenvironmentvariable("roleroot");                  s = "roleroot is: " + roleroot;                 trace.traceinformation(s);                  // string myazureapphome = roleroot + @"\approot\app";                 string myazureapphome = system.io.path.combine(roleroot + @"\", @"approot\");                  s = "myazureapphome is: " + myazureapphome;                 trace.traceinformation(s);                   // string jrehome = roleroot + @"\approot\app\jre6";                 process proc = new process();                 proc.startinfo.useshellexecute = false;                 proc.startinfo.redirectstandardoutput = true;                 //proc.startinfo.filename = string.format("\"{0}\\bin\\java.exe\"", jrehome);                 // proc.startinfo.arguments = string.format("-djetty.port={0} -djetty.home=\"{1}\" -jar \"{1}\\start.jar\"", port, myazureapphome);                 proc.startinfo.filename = string.format("\"{0}\\myazureappprj.exe\"", myazureapphome);                  s = "attempting run file: " + proc.startinfo.filename;                 trace.traceinformation(s);                  proc.enableraisingevents = false;                 proc.start();                 sr = proc.standardoutput;                 response = sr.readtoend();             }             catch (exception ex)             {                 response = ex.message;                 trace.traceerror(response);             }          }          public override bool onstart()         {             // set maximum number of concurrent connections              servicepointmanager.defaultconnectionlimit = 12;              // information on handling configuration changes             // see msdn topic @ http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=166357.              return base.onstart();         }     } }

the problem directory getting roleroot not match "app" support files showing when run project against storage emulator. "app" folder ends in directory found searching windowsazureproject2 directory tree:

c:\users\mycomp\documents\visual studio 2010\projects\windowsazureproject2\workerrole1\app

but getenvironmentvariable("roleroot") reports following roleroot directory dumped trace statement:

c:\users\mycomp\documents\visual studio 2010\projects\windowsazureproject2\windowsazureproject2\bin\debug\windowsazureproject2.csx\roles\workerrole1

which of course leads file not found exception when proc.start() called because custom exe file in former directory, , not latter.

can tell why roleroot path appears botched , can fix this? note, i'm aware of double backslash problem before exe in assignment proc.startinfo.filename (is visual web developer c# different visual studio pro c#?), fixing not change path problem having since directory being returned getenvironmentvariable("roleroot") flat out not contain "app" directory.

update: after doing more reading appears me what's happening "approot" directory not being created , "app" folder files not being copied on either. still can't figure out why.

-- roschler

looks didn't add files in app directory visual studio project. make sure they're added , have "copy output directory" property set "copy always" (or "copy if newer"). should end under %roleroot% expect.
