Hello, Mahesh!
Thank you for writing to us.
We would like to have more information about this error. Do you see an empty Flexmonster grid on your webpage or Flexmonster error pop-ups? This information would greatly help us to understand the reason of the issue.

Yes Maksym, we are able to get error as 500 internal server error and return as above attached error.
And we hosted FM Data server app in azure. When ever if we go thought the following link we are getting as error (attached also) following
https://*******azurewebsites.net/detectors?type=tools&name=eventviewer
Error: the environment block used to start a process cannot be longer than 65535 bytes. Your environment block is 101055 bytes. Remove some environment variables and try again.
Do we have any limitations to create few indexes only?
Best Regards,
Mahesh

Hello, Mahesh!
Thank you for quick response.
Flexmonster Data Server has no limitations on amount of created indexes. The only limit is your server's RAM, as FDS loads and processes data in an operative memory. To sum up, the Data Server is limited by your server hardware, the performance is mostly affected by the amounts of data processed, not in quantity of indexes.
As for now, our team can not see how the exact reason of an error you are dealing with and how it is related to Flexmonster. The possible reason of this error may be too big amount of environment variables. If you are using the Data Server as DLL, the Flexmonster configurations are stored in appsettings.json file, possibly creating a big amount of indexes there may be responsible in exceeding the env block size limit.
Please refer to this thread we have found on Microsoft forum, it contains the information, which may be helpful in fixing Error: the environment block used to start a process cannot be longer than 65535 bytes. Your environment block is X bytes. error.
We also want to make sure which project you are deploying on Azure:
This would be a great help for better understanding of your case.
Hope you will find this answer helpful. Looking forward to hearing from you.
