Error trying to publish my web app from VS Community 2015 to Azure. Error: Can't find existing loaded project:http://localhost:55809

This was working fine yesterday. I made several changes to my system (updates from VS Community 15) and the Azure SDK updates, etc., - as was recommended by the software.

Today, when I right click on the web app and select Publish (using the same or manually entered public information) I see the following error on my Azure App Service Activity tab:

Can't find existing loaded project:http://localhost:55809

I have since tried other publish profiles, none seem to work. I can successfully build and run the web app on localhost.

Change the deploy method to Ftp then change it right back to "Web Deploy". This keeps working for me

Publishing via FTP to azure instead of WebDeploy worked for me.

An update of Visual Studio Community 2015 to version 14.0.24720.00 Update 1 seems to have corrected the problem.

Update or install from here. Visual Studio Community Download from Microsoft

In Visual Studio, go to View -> Other Windows -> Web Publish Activity and you will see the Azure App Service Activity window.

Click on the Publish web icon that you will find there. It should work.

In the project folder in the website.publishproj file change the SourceWebProject tag to contain your client name instead of the localhost.

At least this worked for me :)

Update 13 Dec 2015:

Having the same problem again. The previously mentioned fix does not work. However publishing via FTP to azure works. When you get the azure publish profile you get both Web Deploy and FTP. Try using FTP.
