azure emulator not starting for web role if node_modules directory exists
问题 I think I just stumbled on a really weird problem. I have a pretty big solution including one azure project with 3 roles, two worker and one web role. The web role is based on asp.net mvc and web api. After experimenting with gulp yesterday (for compiling and bundling less files), I noticed just now that the azure emulator won't start this role anymore. The emulator start dialog just stops at ~ 80% and stays there forever, without any error messages. After I removed the node_modules directory
