Getting Started in Microsoft Azure Cloud
A WebSQL Server can be launched in the Azure cloud as a VM instance using the Azure Management Portal as described here.
- Note: ensure you switched to the Azure Preview Portal.
- Click the Marketplace tile or + New button on the left tool bar of the window.
- Search and choose the WebSQL Server virtual machine.
- On the next step, click Create and follow the description from step 4.
To connect to the WebSQL Server, wait until its status is Running. Note: it will take a few minutes (up to 5).
- In a browser, go to https://thePublicDNS/websqlgui.html page, where thePublicDNS can be obtained in the Azure Management Portal.
As a rule, it consists of the Host Name you specified for your WebSQL Server and ".cloudapp.net": https://theHostName.cloudapp.net/websqlgui.html.
Note: the server creates a new self-signed certificate and a browser may warn that the security certificate could not be authenticated.
- On the websqlgui.html page, sign in using the User Name and Password you specified for your WebSQL Server.
