I was referred to this newsgroup by the MSDN concierge. I was trying to
complete the installation steps that come with the SDK for
AzureSample/StorageClient as listed in the readme. All the steps were
completing successfully, except for the last step, where I run
StorageClientAPIsample.exe

The program runs normally, and then generates the following output:

Queue samples finished successfully.

I wondered if my firewall was interfering so I opened ports 10000 to 10003
for bidirectional traffic. This did not correct the problem.
Can you identify the cause of the problem, or how to correct this?

Thanks,
 
Good morning jrl. Welcome to Microsoft Newsgroup Support Service! My name
is Jialiang Ge [MSFT]. It's my pleasure to work with you on this thread.

Although Azure is still a CTP product and it's currently not within our
newsgroup support offering, I'm glad to share my research result with you
in this case. The more proper forum for Azure questions is
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en/category/azure/. We are also
contacting the MSDN concierge about the incorrect redirection. Managed
Newsgroup service does not support non-released products.

The Queue sample finished successfully and you cannot connect to Table
Storage (http//127.0.0.1:10002). This can be caused by the incorrect
configuration of Table Storage. In the 'Readme.txt' file of the sample, it
reads:

<quote>
To run the sample with Visual Studio 2008:

Preparation:
- Install .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 if you haven't done so already.
- Open the Microsoft Windows Azure Command Prompt (Start | Programs |
Windows Azure SDK (October 2008 CTP) | Windows Azure SDK Command Prompt).
- Go to the directory where you unpacked the samples.
- Run development storage by calling the 'rundevstore.cmd' command script.
- Make sure that the Table Storage service is running in development
storage. Also make sure that the database called 'ServiceHostingSDKSamples'
is currently selected for the table service; choose Development Storage ->
Tools -> Table service properties -> ServiceHostingSDKSamples.
</quote>

Please notice the last line.

In order to verify whether Table Storage is running rightly, please go
through these steps:

Step 1. From Start Menu, search for "Development Storage" and launch it.
(If it's already launched, you can find an icon in the Task Bar's
Notification Area)

Step2. There are three services. From the description, it looks like the
Table Storage Service is not running. You can verify it in the "Status"
column.

Step3. If this is the case, please start a command prompt as administrator.
Navigate to the folder "System Drive:\Program Files\Windows Azure
SDK\v1.0\bin\" and run the command
devtablegen.exe /DatabaseName /ForceCreate [path of the compiled assembly]

DatabaseName is optional. If you don't specify a name, the assembly's name
is used by default. ForceCreate is used in case that the database already
exists. For the SDK sample, the compiled assembly should be "Sample Root
Directory\StorageClient\StorageClientAPISample\bin\Debug\
StorageClientAPISample.exe".

Step4. Return to Development Storage. From the "Tools" menu, choose "Table
service properties", and select the database you just created. Now click
the Start Button and check whether problem is fixed.

Here is another way to create the ServiceHostingSDKSamples DB:

Step 1. Run "cmd.exe" as administrator

Step 2. Run "createtables.cmd", which resides in the root folder of
samples.zip.
