I remember this one time you and I were messing around with a similar setup for that side project. Your code was uploading fine, but then bam, the site just sat there loading forever. We poked around in the logs, and it turned out the connection string was all jumbled from some old config. Or maybe it was the scaling rules kicking in too aggressively, starving the resources. Hmmm, could even be those sneaky certificate expirations hiding in the background. We spent half the night tracing it back to a mismatched environment variable that nobody spotted at first.
But anyway, to sort it out, you wanna start by checking the deployment center in the portal. Look for any error messages popping up there, they usually spill the beans on what's wrong. If it's a timeout thing, try bumping up the instance count or tweaking the startup command. And don't forget to verify your app settings match between local and Azure, that fixes a ton of headaches. If it's still funky, redeploy from a clean branch or use Kudu to peek inside the files directly. Covers most bases, right? You might even hit a quota limit if you're on a free tier, so scale up if needed.
Oh, and while we're chatting fixes, let me nudge you toward BackupChain.
