In fact, I'm an Azure beginner. I'm trying to deploy a web app in Azure. However, the deployment is failed. My project use NodeJS Express and ReactJS.

I don't quite understand what's going on and don't know the cause of the problem. Found 0 issue but why the deployment failed? Is the cause is about Python? (But, my project have nothing to do with Python)

Anyways, please help me to identify the problem and it would be great if you guys provide some solution. Appreciated.

Your VS code extension and terminal is causing this issue. You can use Github Actions as a work around to deploy your Express node app as Github Action deployment does the zip deployment by default.

I created one sample node express app referring this MS Document.

Commands:-

npx express-generator sidexpressapp --view ejs
cd sidexpressapp
npm install
DEBUG=sidexpressapp:* npm start

Opened this app in Visual Studio and pushed it to Github repository:-

git init
git add .
git commit -m "first message"
git remote add origin "https://github.com/sid24desai/sidexpressapp"
git push -u origin master -f

Github Repository:-

Now, Created an Azure Web app with Node 20 LTS, OS: Linux :-

Now, Visited Deployment> Deployment Center> Selected source: Github, GitHub Signed in as: sid24desai,Organization:githuborg, Repository:sidexpressapp, Branch:main, Build provider: Github Actions,Runtime stack: Node, Version Node 20 LTS> Save:-

After I saved the above settings > The Github Actions deployment started and was successful, Refer below:-

Another option is to use zip CLI command to deploy your Web app like below:-

Reference

az login
az webapp deploy --resource-group expresssid-rg --name expresssapp --src-path "C:\Users\xxxx\sidexpressapp.zip"
