AzureStorage Blob Server failed to authenticate the request. Make sure the value of Authorization header is formed correctly including the signature

Question

I\'m trying to upload a image in Windows Azure Blob and I\'m geting the following error which I can\'t handle.

Server failed to authenticate the request.

Answer 1

In my case I was passing storage connection string with access signature as an argument to console application. '%' in command line is an special character 'command line parameters'. '%' appears in access signature (SAS). You have to escape percent %, double it %%.
