I'm struggling to deploy a node app to Azure really hard. Because I use jQuery and it's dependant on Contextify (which seems to have a problem with windows) I'm just going in circles.
Has anyone managed to successfully deploy a node app to Azure which uses jQuery, and if so, how!?!?
I am guessing that you are trying to deploy your sollution on an Azure Web Role. You can run into problems using the Web Role. Try instead deploying it to a Worker Role.
For an example of how to do this see: http://coderead.wordpress.com/2011/09/22/windows-azure-and-node-js/
