Umbraco 8 Examine Lucene Azure

Having an issue with Examine Management blade occasionally after deployments.

The ‘ObjectContent`1’ type failed to serialize the response body for content type ‘application/json; charset=utf-8’.

System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path ‘D:\home\site\wwwroot\App_Data\TEMP\ExamineIndexes\Internal’.

The directory and files are in that location. In V7 the azure web apps documentation gave us a guide on applying some settings in the web.config and the ExamineSettings.config but now in v8 that file no longer exists.

How do we fix it?
