ImageResizer AzureReader2 Plugin - 404 response to resize request

2
votes

After many years of using ImageResizer with the Disk Cache plugin on a dedicated server we are gradually migrating our websites to Microsoft Azure. Unfortunately I'm having problems with the ImageResizer AzureReader2 plugin.

My test images are hosted in an Azure Cloud Storage container. The ImageResizer plugins have been added to a new empty MVC web project using NuGet. If I request the image without a QueryString then the response from ImageResizer is a 302-redirect to the direct blob URL.

e.g. 

http://localhost:50505/azure/bhjrbbgljx.jpg -->
https://jetpress.blob.core.windows.net/media/bhjrbbgljx.jpg

However adding the QueryString to perform a resize results in a 404-not found response.

e.g. 

http://local.host:50505/azure/bhjrbbgljx.jpg?width=200 --> 404 page

After plenty of searching I haven't been able to uncover anybody else having similar problems. The question Resizing an image using AzureReader2 results in 404 doesn't apply as I am still running on IIS Express through VS2013.

asp.netasp.net-mvcazureimageresizer
do you need runallmanagedmodulesforallrequests? seems like without that you might not be able to intercept the request, which is why you are getting a 404 – Darren Kopp
Does it work if you use the .ashx syntax? localhost:50505/azure/bhjrbbgljx.jpg.ashx?width=200 – Lilith River
@DarrenKopp Still a 404 but the HTML markup has changed. It looks like it is now being output further up the HTTP pipeline as it references the ASP.NET version. Was it just the IIS static file handler before? – cookdn
Do you have some kind of URL rewriting going on? If so, could you post the code? – Lilith River
@ComputerLinguist Effectively the same as the modification suggested by Darren Kopp. Still a 404 but looks a request to the handler using the .ashx extension is now being handled further up the HTTP pipeline (I did test these changes separately). – cookdn

AzureReader2 expects paths in the form /azure/container/blob

You can change the /azure prefix via the prefix="~/path" attribute when installing the plugin. However, in order to drop the container name from the URL, you will need to use URL rewriting.

Currently, you have both an invalid endpoint and an invalid path.

endpoint="https://jetpress.blob.core.windows.net/media/" path: /azure/bhjrbbgljx.jpg

These should, instead, be

endpoint="https://jetpress.blob.core.windows.net/" path: /azure/media/bhjrbbgljx.jpg

The redirect worked by coincidence of concatenation; this, I believe, threw you off the trail of the true issue.
