从 IIS 运行 ASP.NET MVC 6 Web API

Question

I create a MVC 6 Web API project that is running as expected from Visual Studio, when I'm however deploying to production I'm getting a

An error occured while starting the application

error.

I did the following on the production machine

• Installed ASP.NET 5 from https://get.asp.net
• Made sure that the production environment is running the same dnx version that the application was published with
• Installed HttpPlatformHandler 1.2
• Set the application pool .NET CLR Version to No Managed Code
• Pointed the root location to the wwwroot folder

Is there anything else that I'm missing?

Answer 1

When you run into 500 errors, remember that ASP.NET 5 application can be self hosted,

• Open a command prompt
• Browse to the application directory
• Type in web.cmd

I had some reference problems within my application that was listed in my command prompt which I subsequently fixed and everything worked as expected.

Answer 2

500 can be thrown by different failures. Take a look on http://docs.asp.net/en/latest/publishing/iis.html what u've missed in your configuration. And you should call it ASP.NET Core 1
