After creating a Azure Project within my silverlight app and adding the existing service as a "Add Web Role Project in Solution" I can run my silverlight app hosted in the Cloud and run it successfully locally.

I would like to use the SDK Toolkit instead of Visual Studio to create a package from the webrole. But what is the correct path to the WebRole?

  • It seems like the question should be, "How do I package and deploy to azure without Visual Studio?". Not sure you need what you're asking for to accomplish that ... – bryanmac Nov 19 '11 at 14:48

In order to create a package, you shouldn't need to know where your local role runs. You should only need the service definition file and the binaries/files.

See the cspack cmdline:

You can also use msbuild to create a package:

Also, this is a good starting point:

Let me know if I mis-understood what you're trying to ultimately accomplish.

  • Thanks Bryan, I think I didn't ask the question properly and would have to start again in more detail. Thank for the links, it is useful for another step of my problem. – Houman Nov 19 '11 at 21:01
