'Thread.Sleep(5000) Causes Azure App Service to Shut Down
I have an app service which is hosted on Azure. I have code which creates an app managed certificate and then binds the certificate to the app. It could take several minutes for Azure to create the certificate, so I have to wait for the certificate to be created before I can bind the certificate to the app custom domain.
public static async Task<bool> CreateCustomDomainAndCertificate(string sHostName, string sUserEmail)
{
bool bRet = false;
HttpResponseMessage responseMessage = await CreateCustomDomain(sHostName);
if (responseMessage.IsSuccessStatusCode)
{
Log.Logger.Information($"{sUserEmail} created hostname {sHostName}");
bool bCertificateExists = await DoesCertificateExistAsync(sHostName);
if(!bCertificateExists)
responseMessage = await CreateAppManagedCertificate(sHostName);
/*
it can take a good 5 minutes to create the certificate
but you get the 202 status code right away.
You cannot bind the certificate to the custom domain
name until after the certificate actually exists.
*/
if ((long)responseMessage.StatusCode == 202 || (bCertificateExists && (long)responseMessage.StatusCode == 200))// 202 = Accepted, 200 = Ok
{
Log.Logger.Information($"{sUserEmail} created app managed certificate for hostname {sHostName}");
DateTime dtStart = DateTime.Now;
while ((long)responseMessage.StatusCode != 200 && DateTime.Now < dtStart.AddMinutes(10))
{//Wait until the certificate has been created, up to 10 minutes
Log.Logger.Information($"{sUserEmail} starting 10 second wait");
Thread.Sleep(10000);//10 seconds
Log.Logger.Information($"{sUserEmail} finish 10 second wait");
responseMessage = await BindCertificateToCustomDomain(sHostName);
if ((long)responseMessage.StatusCode == 200)
{
bRet = true;
Log.Logger.Information($"{sUserEmail} binded app managed certificate to hostname {sHostName}");
return true;
}
else
{
Log.Logger.Information($"{sUserEmail} failed to bind app managed certificate to hostname {sHostName}");
}
}
}
else
{
Log.Logger.Information($"{sUserEmail} failed to create app managed certificate for hostname {sHostName}");
return false;
}
}
else
{
Log.Logger.Information($"{sUserEmail} failed to create hostname {sHostName}");
return false;
}
return bRet;
}
After I execute the Thread.Sleep method, the app service starts shutting down. See the logs below:

Notice that after I start the first 10 second wait, the app starts to shut down. I have to assume it is because of Thread Sleep.
Should I use another approach? This works fine when I am debugging with Visual Studio, but I get this weird behavior only when running on Azure. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Update: I ended up creating a Job to look for for certificates that are created and need to be bound.
I created 3 boolean fields in a table. 1 field holds the status of the domain being associated with the web app. 1 field holds the status of the certificate created. 1 field holds the status of the certificate being associated with the custom domain name.

Use Task.Delay(10000) instead of Thread.Sleep(10000).
