I just tried to install Contour into my Azure-hosted Umbraco site and now the only thing served by the site is a runtime error.
The Umbraco site was freshly installed from the Azure Gallery of web apps. As reported in the Gallery, it was version 7.2.5:
Version 7.2.5
Release Date 5/15/2015
Publisher umbraco.org
First, I attempted to install Contour from the Umbraco PRO repository using the Developer tab of the backoffice site. This failed with a JavaScript dialog with the text "invalid hostname".
Then, I downloaded the latest Contour package (v 3.0.27) and attempted to install it as a local package (again from the Developer tab of the backoffice site.) There was no indication that the install was ever completed and, after a few seconds, I got a full-page runtime error page which is now the only thing that the site serves (front or back). The only thing that I can do at this point is delete the site and start again from scratch.
Does anyone have any suggestions or advice? Demand a refund for Contour? Try to manually install an earlier version of Umbraco so that I can use it?
This is quite urgent for me and any help would be greatly appreciated!
Latest Contour installation completely breaks latest Umbraco

Hey Jesse,
Do you remember what the run time error was? I'm sure we can get it running :)
