如何发布针对框架net461的.NET Core ASP.NET网站？

Question

I need to publish a .NET Core ASP.NET Website for IIS that targets framework net461.

I've tried:

dotnet publish --runtime active --output "C:\stuff\" --configuration Release

but this results in the project being output as a .exe (along with .dlls of the dotnet core dependencies like Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization.dll). I need to publish to IIS on a Windows Server 2008 R2.

"buildOptions": {
    "emitEntryPoint": true,
    "preserveCompilationContext": true,
    "warningsAsErrors": true
},
"dependencies": {
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Diagnostics.Elm": "0.1.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authentication.Cookies": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Diagnostics": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting.Abstractions": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Http.Extensions": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Localization": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Routing": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.IISIntegration": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Server.Kestrel": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.Session": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.AspNetCore.StaticFiles": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.SqlServer": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Console": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.Extensions.Logging.Debug": "1.0.0",
"Microsoft.VisualStudio.Web.BrowserLink.Loader": "14.0.0"
},

"frameworks": {
    "net461": {}
},

Thanks for the help!

It's perfectly fine to get an exe output for IIS using .Net Core ( Self-contained application ).

I used following command to publish a test site:

dotnet publish --configuration Release --output "C:\\temp\\net461-site"

Pointed IIS to C:\\temp\\net461-site (must have web.config file), changed App Pool CLR version to No Managed Code and the site works.
