In this tutorial, we’ll walk through the process of hosting an ASP.Net Core application on a Windows server using Internet Information Services (IIS). This guide is applicable to various types of ASP.Net Core applications, including web APIs, MVC, and Blazor.
Observing the Application in Action π₯οΈ
Before we dive into the hosting process, let’s take a moment to observe the application in action. Upon visiting the homepage, you’ll find a welcoming message. Navigating to the counter page, you’ll encounter a button that increments a displayed value with each click. Moving on to the weather page, a table will be populated with dummy weather data.
Installing IIS on Windows Server π»
The first step in hosting our ASP.Net Core application is to install IIS. This can be achieved by opening the Server Manager, selecting the "Add Roles and Features" option, and enabling the Web Server (IIS) role. After the installation is complete, searching for IIS in the start menu will allow us to proceed with the following steps.
Installing .Net Runtime and Hosting Bundle βοΈ
In order to host the application on IIS, we need to install the .Net runtime and hosting bundle. These installations will provide the necessary services and libraries for hosting. Once the runtime and hosting bundle are installed, we can proceed with configuring the domain name for our project.
Publishing the Project and Hosting π¦
With the necessary services and libraries set up, we can proceed with publishing the project and hosting it on the server. This involves choosing the target location, adjusting the publish location if necessary, and ensuring that the domain name is correctly pointed to the server IP.
Configuring IIS for Hosting π οΈ
After the files have been published and copied to the server, we proceed with configuring IIS for hosting. This involves creating an application pool, adding a new site, and specifying the host name for the application. With the configurations completed, we can test the URL to ensure that the web page has loaded successfully.
Conclusion β
The hosting process for our ASP.Net Core application is now successfully set up and functional. In this tutorial, we’ve covered the step-by-step process for hosting an ASP.Net Core application in a Windows Server.
Takeaways:
- Deployment of ASP.Net Core application on IIS involves installing IIS, .Net runtime, and hosting bundle.
- Configuring the domain name and hosting the project on the server are essential steps in the deployment process.
