A sitefinity CMS based .net web application is hosted as a web role in azure. The site is working fine as such. Now I've enabled Application Insights in the application but No app insights data is being collected .
This is based on Sitefinity 7.3 version. The app insights assemblies are installed via nuget using "Install-Package Microsoft.ApplicationInsights.Web -Pre" and they were successfully installed. The appropriate modules are added in the web.config and the ApplicationInsights.config file is also added to the solution.
I debugged in emulator and found that the "ApplicationInsightsWebTracking" module is loading fine as well.
As a trial I enabled app insights for a normal asp.net mvc app and found that it is working fine.
any solutions for this would be appreciated.
--edit-- I had added the instrumentation key element with the value from new portal in the applicationInsights.config since nuget install of app insights would not add it automatically.
-- more edit---
1) I have used the correct instrumentation key .
2) while running the app in the local azure emulator in the output window I see this error

But the application continues to run fine though.
3) In the fiddler I could see a call made to dc.services.visualstudio.com which I believe is for app insights.
4) I have not used perfview tool much. I just ran the command u mentioned in the Menu>Collect>run option of the perfview tool
then I ran the application in visual studio in azure emulator.
once the home page loaded up, I stopped the perfview.( just clicked abort in the menu)
I am not sure if it collected the required data. Only the Eventstats tab had some data. posting it here.
