title: Deploying a War file to Azure
body: <p>I am attempting to upload a War file of a web service to Azure, running tomcat 8.<br>
  I have the war file in the relevant webapps folder on onedrive, however the deployment consistently fails, and frustratingly it does so without an error message. </p>
  
  <p>I'm pretty sure that if I can't use a method involving uploading the binary file to Azure, I cannot use Azure. When using repositories like github, the build would fail due to reference issues, so I believe that is not an option.</p>
  
  <p>Unfortunately I <strong>must</strong> use Azure, I'm aware that with other services like AWS I'd be done in 5 minutes as you can directly upload without any Microsoft (tm) hassle.</p>
