ASP.NET 5 RC1 Deploy To IIS Hangs

Question

I installed the RC1 version of ASP.NET 5.0 on a Windows 2012 Server running IIS. After publishing my ASP.NET 5 application to the server, I try to access the default web page and the web browser hangs (it just clocks indefinitely). Everything runs correctly within Visual Studio. It only does this when I publish it to an IIS server.

I followed the instructions in this lunch to publish and deploy to the IIS server: http://docs.asp.net/en/latest/publishing/iis.html.

Has anyone else experienced this and resolved the issue? If so, what did you do to fix it?

Same here, did you solve this problem?

Joel,

I ran across the same issue today, trying to deploy ASP.NET 5 applications to IIS on Azure VMs.

You might not be deploying the DNX runtime with your application, or something is preventing/killing the Kestrel or WebListener process. From what I found, the request hangs because Kestrel (or whatever listener you're running with dnx web) doesn't start, or crashes during the request.

For me, this happened because I wasn't publishing the application properly with dnu publish.

Check the ../approot folder and ensure it has the following directory structures:

../approot
     /packages // NuGet Packages
     /runtimes // DNX lives here
     /src // Your code

If you're missing /runtimes, you'll see the request hang.

To add them, I used the following command:

dnu publish --out <output directory> --configuration <build configuration> --wwwroot <web root name> --wwwroot-out <web root output name> --runtime <either "active" or current runtime> --iis-command web

If this doesn't fix the issue, something may be crashing the application process.

What helped me is to run

dnu restore

command after copying files to the server. It appeared, that IIS couldn't start approot\web.cmd, I've found that after running web.cmd manually. Then I googled the error and came to this answer
