[EDIT] 2 In case it helps anyone and saves you some time: the Azure Web App that hosts the container has a configuration key named WEBSITES_CONTAINER_START_TIME_LIMIT, this timeout is set to 230s by defualt, maximum is 1800. As bonita takes more thant that to initialize Azure stops the container before bonita finishes, so it leaves you a corrupted configuration. After increasing the timeout I restarted and recreated everything and it started to work.
