I am transferring cakephp 2.5 from boxfabric vps to Azure platform. Even though I added web.config as mentioned in https://book.cakephp.org/2.0/en/installation/url-rewriting.html#url-rewrites-on-iis7-windows-hosts , as well as configuring database and also turned on Debug mode. I am getting 500 Internal server error.
In the azure logs too there is nothing helpful.
The web.config file aforementioned looks fine.
Without any logs, it's hard to help here. However, you may try getting logs for PHP 500 errors on Azure Web App through the Troubleshooting PHP errors.
