The listener for function 'name' was unable to start.

Hello everyone, I tried to run Azure Function Event Hub trigger on my laptop but I got this error

After that I changed AzureWebJobsStorage value in local.settings.json file from
"UseDevelopmentStorage=true" => "DefaultEndpointsProtocol" from AzureWebJobsStorage in Configuration (I read a post from stackoverflow)

Now I got more error :(

Can someone point out where I'm doing wrong? Thanks

@Nguyen Thuan An Thanks for reaching out. As per the error the entity path was not valid iothub-ns-ansampleio-23431148-f707f82b53.servicebus.windows.net/messages/events. Please validate whether you are passing the eventHubName and consumerGroup properties correctly as documented here.

Let me know if you are still facing the issue.

Hello Mr. @MayankBargali-MSFT , sorry to bother you, but can we continue this question? If this question can not resolve, could you let me know the other way to receive message from simulator device send to IoT Hub? Thank you!

@Nguyen Thuan An You need to update the sample-workitems with the correct eventhub name that is created on your event hub namespace for which you want to trigger your function.

You can navigate to your event hub resource in azure portal and then navigate to Event Hubs under the entity of your namespace. Now it will list the number of event hubs that are present on your namespace.

As you can see in my namespace there are multiple eventhubs and I have used iotevents hub in the configuration of my azure app. Similarly you need to update the right eventhub name for your namespace.

The error is expected as the event hub name is incorrect and doesn't exists in your namespace. Feel free to get back to me if you need any assistance.

@Anonymous As pe the screenshot the your namespace is ansecondeventhub and sample-workitems as the event hub name. But as per the error you are connecting to iothub-ns-ansampleio-23431148-f707f82b53. In your first screenshot you are under the event hub namespace blade where you see the Shared access policies under settings. Please navigate to that option and click on RootManageSharedAccessKey (i.e. the default key or create new one as per your need) and copy connection string (primary or secondary). Now navigate to your local.settings.json and update this value for the property EventHubConnectionString

Let me know if you are still facing the issue and we can connect offline so I can assist you.

@Anonymous Your new issue is already discussed here. Upde your AzureWebJobsStorage with some other port in your local.settings.json

"AzureWebJobsStorage": "DefaultEndpointsProtocol=http;AccountName=devstoreaccount1;AccountKey=<<key>>;BlobEndpoint=http://127.0.0.1:20000/devstoreaccount1;QueueEndpoint=http://127.0.0.1:20001/devstoreaccount1;TableEndpoint=http://127.0.0.1:20002/devstoreaccount1;",

Hello Mr. @MayankBargali-MSFT , have a nice day.

Is the error I'm getting can be fixed, if not, can you let me know another way to receive message from Azure and log it.

Thank you very much!

@Anonymous You need to make two changes as discussed here.
Navigate to the C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Azure\Storage Emulator directory (i.e the directory where your emulator is installed) and open the AzureStorageEmulator.exe.config file and update the ports to the default port as the function try to find the storage emulator services in the default IP and port. Change the port to any other port let's say 30001,30002,30003

<services> <service name="Blob" url="http://127.0.0.1:30000/"/> <service name="Queue" url="http://127.0.0.1:30001/"/> <service name="Table" url="http://127.0.0.1:30002/"/> </services>

Now at your local.settings.json for every function that you will be running locally. You can modify the ports as per your need i.e. the ports where your storage service is running. The same is documented here on how you can use the other value instead of UseDevelopmentStorage=true

"AzureWebJobsStorage": "DefaultEndpointsProtocol=http;AccountName=youraccount;AccountKey=yourkey;BlobEndpoint=http://127.0.0.1:30000/devstoreaccount1;QueueEndpoint=http://127.0.0.1:30001/devstoreaccount1;TableEndpoint=http://127.0.0.1:30002/youraccount;",
