ASP.NET 5 web app not running in debug mode in IIS Express


Completely following this Tutorial including the prerequisites described there, I created the web app ContosoBooks using VS2015 Professional on Windows 7. The app compiles successfully but when I run the app in debug mode using F5 in Visual Studio, it waits for a long time and finally gives me this error: enter image description here The project properties are set to default as follows: enter image description here enter image description here

The windows event log shows the following message: The directory specified for caching compressed content C:\Users\myname\AppData\Local\Temp\iisexpress\IIS Temporary Compressed Files\Clr4IntegratedAppPool is invalid. Static compression is being disabled

The project.json file is as follows:

Solution

  • Commenting out app.UseBrowserLink() in the startup.cs allowed me to use Bitdefender Endpoint Security and ASP.Net 5.

    I found this work around on the asp.net github page.
