There is an automatic timeout for timer jobs. Depending on your settings and your code, the following could be the cause (not limited to those, but some bullets to check):
- For long running jobs, Azure web job will be termined prematurly. In that case, you should enable Always On (available from pricing Basic tier 1)
- For triggered jobs, you have to explicitly terminate your job, otherwise Azure will terminite it for you with a timeout exception - for example Environment.Exit(0), you can also register that the job failed by calling Environment.Exit(1)
Also, here is a more proper way of writing the code - that way it will call your function and then end, not run continously and register a timeout exception:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
JobHost host = new JobHost();
host.Call(typeof(Program).GetMethod("RunTask"));
}
[NoAutomaticTrigger]
public static void RunTask()
{
Console.WriteLine("Creating queue message: ", message);
}
