Azure function, Deploy to Linux based function from VSCode on a windows computer doesn't work

Question

Developed an Azure Function in VSCode with JavaScript on a Windows computer.

It works fine if deployed it to Windows based function but doesn't work when deployed into Linux based function.

Also, when deployed from VSCode to Linux function, I received error message:

"Encountered an error (InternalServerError) from host runtime."

Although, the function app is available in the portal after the deployment proess. However, it will production "500 internal server err." when test it.

This happens even with JavaScript HTTP function sample code example.

Please help.

Internal server error for your JS based Azure Function App:

Answer: I see that you have already raised another thread for the same issue. The Internal Server 500 error code is due to the error Did not find any initialized language workers issue. Please note this issue a known issue reported recently. We have already involved the Product Group team internally.

The issue was caused by azure portal saving test data within the azure functions. Portal team made a fix. ETA for deployment of this fix to prod is 7/14th. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused due to this. We appreciate your patience on this.
