First make sure you have added references to Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics from the SDK folders (typically c:Program FilesMicrosoft SDKsWindows Azure.NET SDKv2.2 efMicrosoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics.dll)

Next, if you are not running your project in the emulator (i.e. the cloud project set as the startup project), then set the trace filter level to TraceEventType.Error or TraceEventType.None to avoid trying to write verbose Azure messages to the trace listener. In you web or app config:

  <system.diagnostics>
    <trace>
      <listeners>
        <add type="Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics.DiagnosticMonitorTraceListener, Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Diagnostics, Version=2.2.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" name="AzureDiagnostics">
          <filter level="TraceEventType.Error" />
        </add>
      </listeners>
    </trace>
  </system.diagnostics>
