Azure troubleshooting

1. Getting server error when running an app in Cloud after deploying to Azure.

    - create web site on Azure
    - create basic MVC 4 web application in VS2010 (.NET Framework 4.0) and deploy
    Symptom: 
    Not running in a hosted service or the Development Fabric.
  see details bellow
  Resolution:
  There seems to be a conflict with DiagnosticMonitorTraceListener component.
  Remove
