After moving my Azure web app to SDK 2.1 I have started getting the

type initializer for 'Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime.RoleEnvironment' threw an exception.

error message. The same is working fine in the local environment but gives above error on Azure.

My web.config already has following entries:

<runtime>
  <assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
    <dependentAssembly>
      <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.WindowsAzure.StorageClient"
          publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" culture="neutral" />
      <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-1.7.0.0" newVersion="1.7.0.0" />
    </dependentAssembly>
    <dependentAssembly>
      <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.WindowsAzure.ServiceRuntime"
          publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" culture="neutral" />
      <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-1.8.0.0" newVersion="1.8.0.0" />
    </dependentAssembly>
    <dependentAssembly>
      <assemblyIdentity name="Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics"
          publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" culture="neutral" />
      <bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-2.1.0.0" newVersion="2.1.0.0" />
    </dependentAssembly>
  </assemblyBinding>
</runtime>

and 

<system.diagnostics>
  <trace>
    <listeners>
      <add type="Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics.DiagnosticMonitorTraceListener, Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics, Version=2.1.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" name="AzureDiagnostics">
          <filter type="" />
      </add>
    </listeners>
  </trace>
</system.diagnostics>

still it's not working in live Azure. Can someone please help me out?

It is possible that you may be running different Windows Azure DLLs than the ones installed (by default) on live Azure instance roles. Right click the Microsoft.WindowsAzure.[any] references in your project and check the version number in the Properties window and try to match them with the version numbers in your config files.
