Run a single container app on azure from a private docker image returns: :( Application Error

Question

I'm looking to use azure web apps service to run a multiple containers app, but I'm starting for the simpler case which is to run a single container for an image that it's already working as a container instance.

For now I'm doing this deployment from the web site instead of using the CLI

When I visit the site url I get this error:

From the container settings section I get this message:

2019-12-21 15:45:15.759 INFO  - Waiting for response to warmup request for container policy-recomd_0_31cfeac3. Elapsed time = 212.2003193 sec

2019-12-21 15:45:33.887 INFO  - Stoping site policy-recomd because it failed during startup.

EDIT This is the image menu I get for the app:

I added the port number to the configuration but still not working:

This is a limitation of the Azure Web App, it only supports to expose the port 80 and 443. You need to expose port 80 and 5100 in the Dockerfile and finally in Azure App Application Settings add two new variables, PORT=5100 and WEBSITES_PORT=80.

Where on the settings do I add those variables? I updated the question with a screenshot with the menus I see – Luis Ramon Ramirez Rodriguez Dec 21 '19 at 16:31
as i said it should be in the docker file – Sajeetharan Dec 21 '19 at 16:32
It is in the docker file, I mean this part ou said: **d finally in Azure App Application Settings add two new variables, PORT=5100 and WEBSITES_PORT=80** – Luis Ramon Ramirez Rodriguez Dec 21 '19 at 16:48
its in the configuration – Sajeetharan Dec 21 '19 at 16:50

No, I added that in the configuration, but still not working. I uploaded an image of that to the question – Luis Ramon Ramirez Rodriguez Dec 21 '19 at 17:40

When you deploy a single image to the Web App, you do not need to add the environment variable for the port which needs to expose, it will be automatically detected if you already expose the port in the Dockerfile. You can take a look at the first way in the troubleshooting for NoPing. You can also use the second way, but it's not necessary.
