Stuck while publishing web application in Azure using WebJob

Question

I just used the WebJob SDK to add a web application to my web application.

Now, when publishing a web application, VS is stuck when publishing (does not freeze, but does not progress).

I know this is caused by WebJob because when I delete webjobs-list.json it publishes fine.

Strangely, publishing only WebJob (using Publish as Azure WebJob ) does not present this problem.

Use the .NET Framework 4.5.1 if that matters. Update: 4.5 did not affect.

Here's a picture of the problem:

Answer 1

Setting the "maximum number of concurrent projects" to 1 (default 4) solved the problem for me. It is located in Tools> Options> Projects and Solutions> Build and Run
