Azure Messaging SDK Troubleshooting
Quick Reference
| Property | Value |
|----------|-------|
| Services | Azure Event Hubs, Azure Service Bus |
| MCP Tools | mcp_azure_mcp_eventhubs, mcp_azure_mcp_servicebus |
| Best For | Diagnosing SDK connection, auth, and message processing issues |
When to Use This Skill
- SDK connection failures, auth errors, or AMQP link errors
- Idle timeout, connection inactivity, or slow reconnection after disconnect
- AMQP link detach or detach-forced errors
- Message lock lost, message lock expired, lock renewal failures, or batch lock timeouts
- Session lock lost, session lock expired, or session receiver errors
- Event processor or message handler stops processing
- Duplicate events or checkpoint offset resets
- SDK configuration questions (retry, prefetch, batch size, receive batch behavior)
MCP Tools
| Tool | Command | Use |
|------|---------|-----|
| mcp_azure_mcp_eventhubs | Namespace/hub ops | List namespaces, hubs, consumer groups |
| mcp_azure_mcp_servicebus | Queue/topic ops | List namespaces, queues, topics, subscriptions |
| mcp_azure_mcp_monitor | logs_query | Query diagnostic logs with KQL |
| mcp_azure_mcp_resourcehealth | get | Check service health status |
| mcp_azure_mcp_documentation | Doc search | Search Microsoft Learn for troubleshooting docs |
Diagnosis Workflow
- Identify the SDK and version — Check the prompt for SDK and version clues; if not stated, proceed with diagnosis and ask later if needed
- Check resource health — Use
mcp_azure_mcp_resourcehealthto verify the namespace is healthy - Review the error message — Match against language-specific troubleshooting guide
- Look up documentation — Use
mcp_azure_mcp_documentationto search Microsoft Learn for the error or topic - Check configuration — Verify connection string, entity name, consumer group
- Recommend fix — Apply remediation, citing documentation found
Connectivity Troubleshooting
See Service Troubleshooting Guide for ports, WebSocket fallback, IP firewall, private endpoints, and service tags.
