It is possible that you are hitting the Azure Web App's sandbox restrictions. Some tips to troubleshoot:
Take a look at the documentation on this topic and see if it applies to your web app, https://github.com/projectkudu/kudu/wiki/Azure-Web-App-sandbox
Check if you can find the any errors via App Service Diagnostics, https://azure.github.io/AppService/2018/09/24/Announcing-the-New-App-Service-Diagnostics-Experience.html

Connect to Oracle Server from cloud Azure Application

I am pretty new to Windows Azure, I want to migrate existing web application that connects to remote Oracle server and run it as a cloud service web role how can I accomplish this while windows azure has no Oracle client installed by default ? or in other words how can I connect from within .net application to a 64Bit Oracle database server without installing oracle client ?
I have worked with Oracle client long time back so some of things below may not be right. But here are some of your options:
You could make use of Oracle client for .Net provided by Microsoft and add those assemblies references in your project. When you publish the project, make sure that Copy Local attribute on those assemblies are marked as true so that those DLLs get packaged along with the rest of your application.
If you're using Oracle provided client for .Net, I remember we had to install that application on our web server. In that case, you could make use of something called Startup Tasks in your webrole and install the package when your role starts. You could either include the installer as part of your package and then install the software using a startup task.

One Windows Service to access multiple windows application

I have a SQL Server database which serves multiple ASP.NET windows applications. They each have their own SiteID to distinguish the data.
I recently realised that it isn't good practice to have multiple applications accessing one database directly and decided I would implement a service to handle all database connections.
All the windows applications and database sit on the same windows 2008 server.
I want to know what kind of service is best for this functionality. windows service?
