Kestrel returns HTTP 500 when it runs as an exe


I have a small Asp.Net Core web app. I targeted the net461 framework because it has a dependency on Restsharp.

When I run this web app as ./web.exe, it returns with HTTP 500. When I run with "dotnet run" from project folder, it runs fine.

I must use the first version because I publish that to a provider who doesn't have .Net SDK.

What can i do?

My project.json is here:

{
  "dependencies": {
    //"Microsoft.NETCore.App": {
    //    "version": "1.0.0",
    //    "type": "platform"

    "configProperties": {

    }
  },

  "publishOptions": {
    "include": [
      "wwwroot",
      "web.config"
    ]
  },

  "scripts": {
    "postpublish": [ "dotnet publish-iis --publish-folder %publish:OutputPath% --framework %publish:FullTargetFramework%" ]
  }
}

Solution

  • Finally, I solved the problem. I missed something from WebhostBuilder. With .UseIISIntegration() it works fine.
