Why webjob is failing with exit code 532462766?

Question

This is the error stated by the webjob console. Earlier the same code was running fine at least it was making a logging in application insight. This is the error:

I have fixed the Azure SQL connection issue which was caused by the wrong Azure connection string. I am uploading my webjob by zipping Debug folder and uploading it.

To resolve the error Job failed due to exit code -532462766, please check the following:

This error usually occurs when the config file is broken.
After installing the Application Insights try comparing the configuration files.
Please check whether you have web.config file. If not, try creating web.config in console app similar to app.config and republish SO Thread by Lucas Huet-Hudson.
Try copying the the programname.exe.config file along with the exe as answered by Nasir Razzaq in the above thread.
Try to disable the dashboard logging as suggested by NicolajHedeager in this GitHub Blog.

If the issue still persists, raise Azure Support Ticket to know the root cause of the issue.
