404 on static content (svg,woff,ttf) on Azure

I hit the same problem with .woff file. Solution with adding that extension to web.config works fine:

<configuration>
  <system.webServer>
    <staticContent>
      <mimeMap fileExtension="woff" mimeType="application/font-woff" />
  </staticContent>
</system.webServer>

(see oryginal solution: http://www.codepal.co.uk/show/WOFF_files_return_404_in_Azure_Web_Sites)

When I put the suggested lines into web.config it didn't work. Instead I put the following lines into Web.config (note the capital letter)

<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <staticContent>
            <mimeMap fileExtension="woff" mimeType="application/font-woff" />
            <mimeMap fileExtension="woff2" mimeType="application/font-woff" /> 
         </staticContent>
    </system.webServer>

I did not include font files in solution. This caused that publishing website does not contains this files.

If you are using the continuous deployment on Azure, verify that the "build action" of all the files that you need is Content and not None.
