Question

I can run my application on Visual Studio 2017 but when I load it on to IIS I get localhost connection refused error. It is an app with login page and I created this with identity scaffold.Could you please help!!!
IdentityHostingStartup.cs
public class IdentityHostingStartup : IHostingStartup
{
public void Configure(IWebHostBuilder builder)
{
builder.ConfigureServices((context, services) => {
services.AddDbContext<StockControlContext>(options =>
options.UseSqlServer(
context.Configuration.GetConnectionString("DefaultConnection")));
services.AddDefaultIdentity<StockControlUser>()
.AddEntityFrameworkStores<StockControlContext>().AddDefaultTokenProviders().AddDefaultUI();
services.Configure<IdentityOptions>(options =>
{
// Password settings
options.Password.RequireDigit = false;
options.Password.RequiredLength = 0;
options.Password.RequireNonAlphanumeric = false;
options.Password.RequireUppercase = false;
options.Password.RequireLowercase = false;
options.Password.RequiredUniqueChars = 0;
});
services.Configure<IISOptions>(options =>
{
options.ForwardClientCertificate= false;
});
});
}
}
}
startup.cs
public class Startup
{
public Startup(IConfiguration configuration)
{
Configuration = configuration;
}
public IConfiguration Configuration { get; }
// This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to add services to the container.
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
var environment = services.BuildServiceProvider().GetRequiredService<IHostingEnvironment>();
services.ConfigureApplicationCookie(options =>
{
options.ExpireTimeSpan = TimeSpan.FromMinutes(30);
});
services.Configure<CookiePolicyOptions>(options =>
{
// This lambda determines whether user consent for non-essential cookies is needed for a given request.
options.CheckConsentNeeded = context => true;
options.MinimumSameSitePolicy = SameSiteMode.None;
});
/* services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDbContext>(options =>
options.UseSqlServer(
Configuration.GetConnectionString("DefaultConnection")));
services.AddDefaultIdentity<IdentityUser>()
.AddEntityFrameworkStores<ApplicationDbContext>();*/
services.AddDbContext<BAR_ERPContext>(options =>
options.UseSqlServer(Configuration.GetConnectionString("DefaultConnection")));
services.AddMvc().SetCompatibilityVersion(CompatibilityVersion.Version_2_1);
services.AddMvc().AddSessionStateTempDataProvider();
services.AddSession(options => {
options.Cookie.HttpOnly = true;
});
services.AddBootstrapPagerGenerator(options =>
{
// Use default pager options.
options.ConfigureDefault();
});
services.Configure<PagerOptions>(Configuration.GetSection("Pager"));
services.Configure<IISOptions>(options =>
{
options.ForwardClientCertificate = false;
});
}
// This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to configure the HTTP request pipeline.
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IHostingEnvironment env)
{
if (env.IsDevelopment())
{
app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
app.UseDatabaseErrorPage();
}
else
{
app.UseExceptionHandler("/Home/Error");
app.UseHsts();
}
app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseStaticFiles();
app.UseCookiePolicy();
app.UseSession();
app.UseAuthentication();
app.UseMvc(routes =>
{
routes.MapRoute(
name: "default",
template: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
});
}
}
program.cs
public static void Main(string[] args)
{
CreateWebHostBuilder(args).Build().Run();
}
public static IWebHostBuilder CreateWebHostBuilder(string[] args) =>
WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
.UseStartup<Startup>();
I added below code for both startup.cs and IdentityHostingStartup.cs
services.Configure<IISOptions>(options =>
{
options.ForwardClientCertificate = false;
});
I also tried creating new project without login page in asp.net core. It worked fine on IIS. But asp.net core project with scafolded identity anonymous login is not working on IIS, however it works fine on VS 2017.
Could you please help thx.
