xld-azure-app-services-plugin's Issues

Can't connect to Azure

Hey guys,

I am having trouble making any connection to azure using the new plugin. I realize that may no be your problem :) but was looking for a little help. I thought perhaps it was a firewall problem. I followed the directions here (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/resource-group-create-service-principal-portal) and using those creds (except for the ftp user) I am able to connect. First does the check connection use the ftp user, and if so does it have to be in any special format? Any tips, I can't seem to make headway.

Error I get when Checking connection:
Error while executing script [azure_app_services/check_connection.py]: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect in <script> at line number 21
com.xebialabs.platform.script.jython.JythonException: Error while executing script [azure_app_services/check_connection.py]: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused: connect in <script> at line number 21

Thanks!
Bernie

What needs to be included on classpath for install?

Hey There,

I was trying to load the plugin into our sandbox xld and got an error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Unknown enum-class supplied for property sku of kind ENUM: com.microsoft.azure.management.websites.models.SkuOptions

I assume I need to add some stuff to the lib directory. Can you let me know what I need to add to load and use the plugin?

Thanks!
Bernie

gson library version too low

This plugin is transitively using gson 2.2.4. Since plugins share the same classloader it can break other plugins that rely on newer versions of gson depending on the order that libraries are loaded. Here is an example from an in-house plugin:

java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.google.gson.JsonArray.add(Ljava/lang/String;)V

That method was added in gson 2.3.
