Hosted service in usa-northwest disappeared but cannot be recreated elsewhere

Question

Hi, I noticed my hosted service was gone. It was located in usa-northwest and cannot be recreated because the url is already occupied (by myself in usa-northwest I presume). I noticed that others have the same issue but I did not see a generic solution. I checked my e-mail inbox but I can't find a notice of the closure of usa-northwest center like others mentioned. Can you delete the application for me (forscale.cloudapp.net) so I can create the application again?
Thanks

Answer 1

Hi

Can you also delete:

bingmapsupdates.cloudapp.net (urgent as is an MSFT site being hosted here)

and

earthware.cloudapp.net

Thanks

Answer 4

My site dissapeared as well.

However, I see that I can create a new cloud app but can't use the old name. 

What happened since I did not see any notification from Azure team?

P/S:

Many people got this problem like us :D

Answer 11

Yi-Lun,

Thanks. The URL is now available and I will be re-uploading my app shortly.

Answer 12

The URL isn't available yet: forscale.cloudapp.net. Can you have a look whether it is deleted?

Answer 13

Thanks Steve !

My Cloud App is running well !

Answer 14

Could you also ASAP remove buddyfuse.cloudapp.net so I can recreate it? It was using USA Anywhere but seems to have been removed.

I can't recall I ever gotten an email as described here: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/windowsazure/thread/52d0c47c-d94f-45f2-9a27-6b5adb20f5b0/

Also, I assume my storage account will be deleted shortly as well? I find it hard to believe no tool (as originally announced) has been made available to assist in the migration, or am I wrong?

Answer 15

Hi Yi-Lun Luo

I can create the accout with the same name again. However, right after deployment, the web page is not available :|

Can you check, please?

The deployment ID is : 263f2e85d89d431ca3551c5e54b79275

I have also sent an email to Steve to report this issue.

Thank you very much

Answer 16

rfdnl and YousefED, you should be able to create accounts now. Please try again.

Answer 18

Thanks, it's up and running. What should I do with my storage account? It is still working for me at this moment. Is it going to be removed as well? (if so, when?)
