Azure Api Error 500

Question

I have created an API service in azure. It is assumed that making a GET request to {my_url}/api/{name_of_the_table} should return an XML with the data ot the table.

However, it returns an error message:

<Error>
<Message>An error has occurred.</Message>
<ExceptionMessage>
The 'ObjectContent1' type failed to serialize the response body for content type 'application/xml; charset=utf-8'.
</ExceptionMessage>

<InnerException>
<Message>An error has occurred.</Message>
<ExceptionMessage>
The operation is not supported for your subscription offer type.
</ExceptionMessage>

This is the url to the web api: http://epocapi.azurewebsites.net/api/Usuarios

I'm using the DreamSpark subscription (students)

How can I fix this?

It's impossible to help because you don't specify the relevant information. You got a SqlException saying you tried to use a feature that isn't available. Where is the code that throws this exception? What did you try to do? Did you try to execute some statement, did it occur while opening a connection? — Panagiotis Kanavos, Apr 15 '16 at 07:40
Hello @PanagiotisKanavos , I am trying to get the data of a table call Usuarios. I have run it locally and it works, However it doesn't work if it is deployed on azure. Thanks — , Apr 15 '16 at 09:42
That doesn't explain anything. For all one knows, you may be trying to connect with a connection string that enables mirroring or whatever. Post the code, identify the line where the exception occurs. At the very list add some logging and log the full exception including its full stack. That's easy to get with `Exception.ToString()` — Panagiotis Kanavos, Apr 15 '16 at 09:48
Are you sure the subscription hasn't expired? Googling for the error shows that this is typically caused by expired subscriptions, billing errors etc. — Panagiotis Kanavos, Apr 15 '16 at 09:54
Thank you @PanagiotisKanavos, but I have a problem. I don't know in which line the exception occurs. — , Apr 15 '16 at 09:55
I will check the subscription status, but i think it is not expired @PanagiotisKanavos — , Apr 15 '16 at 09:56
I just posted the exception as returned from your site. You'll see from the stack that it's thrown when it tries to *create* a database. If you *can't* create a database you should check your subscription. Has it expired? *Can* you use SQL Azure or not? Can you create a database from Azure Portal? — Panagiotis Kanavos, Apr 15 '16 at 09:58
@PanagiotisKanavos , I have already check it, and it the Dreamspark subscription is active. With dreamspark subscription I'm able to use SQL Azure and Create a database in Azure, in fact , I have already create it. — , Apr 15 '16 at 10:15
The error is not related to the database. It's a subscription problem. You haven't posted the code, model, connection string so it's impossible to help. Maybe you specified the wrong database. Or maybe there is an issue with your subscription. The only one who can answer this is Azure's support staff. People at SO can't check your subscription status — Panagiotis Kanavos, Apr 15 '16 at 11:00

The error is occurring as a result of your code trying to create a database. The error is indicating that the edition/performance level being created is not supported by your subscription offer type - a DreamSpark subscription is limited to creating free resources. See https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/offers/ms-azr-0144p/. Creating a database without specifying an edition will create a Standard S0 database by default, which is not free. If you create a free website or mobile service and elect to create a free Azure SQL Database as part of the template that should work for your subscription's offer type. You could then access this database from any application although it will have limited storage and performance.

You can put the default constructor to the DTO class.

Ex:

public class User
{
    public User()
    {
    }
}

or you can try to put the following lines at the top of your Application_Start method in the Global.asax file:

GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.Formatters.JsonFormatter.SerializerSettings.ReferenceLoopHandling = Newtonsoft.Json.ReferenceLoopHandling.Ignore;

It doesn't work. Now it answer me in json, but the message is the same error. I have tried to run it locally and it works, but it doesn't work on azure. Thanks Alex :) – Apr 15 '16 at 09:37
What does a constructor have to do with a SqlException error? – Panagiotis Kanavos Apr 15 '16 at 09:49
