I would like to run ILSpy on one of my DLLs to verify code is running on a deployment slot and unable to figure out how to retrieve the DLLs from my PaaS WebApp.
As all mentioned above, If we want to get the published files from the Azure WebApp, we could use the Kudu tool to do that easily.
More info about Azure website file structure, we could refer to this document. If you want to know more about Azure WebApp, you could refer to Azure WebApp Sandbox.

Can I host a web application created on .net core 2.1 with sql server as database to azure web app service using CI tools / MS WebDeploy?
The following points I want to take care:
The application is using file system for temp storage and file storage
Deployment should be managed by some CI tools such as jenkins
After deployment, the app settings file should be modified with some keys/server details
Log files(stored on app root) should be accessible by application administrator
Is there a way to create a virtual directory same as in IIS and upload the files using FTP or similar protocols..?
All your doubts about deploying .net core 2.1 web app are achievable.
Suppose our projects are all completed and uploaded to github.
Questions and explanations about your concerns：
About the connection configuration using the database, you can directly configure it in web.config. If you are using azure sql server, find the connection string, set up the firewall, and pass the SSMS test, you can test the connection in the code. It can also be added in the Configuration -> Application settings -> Connection strings in the portal. After the addition, the priority is higher than the configuration in web.config, which will override the configuration and not modify the web.config file.
Regarding the use of file storage, you can use azure storage services or not. Looking specifically at the business, for example, very small pictures, documents and other files can be stored in the current program running directory, which is consistent with the original development at the code level. When publishing, you need to include the MyFiles file in the publishing process, or wait for the publishing to be completed and add folders manually in kudu, or the program can judge. It is recommended to use the program to judge that the subsequent program upgrade will not lose data.
The confidential information in the app settings file can actually be configured in web.config or appsetting.json. Make sure that the offline project is running properly when you are debugging locally, and then you can publish it. The rest is configured in the portal as in the first explanation.
The Log Files file storage can fully achieve the effect you want. It should be enough to set the owner permissions of this app services. For details, please refer to the official documentation.
Virtual directories and virtual applications, I have a better answer in another post here, you can refer to it.
Steps：
First of all, we can create a web app in portal and select .net core 2.1. Create appservices, and click Deployment Center when finished.
Follow the prompts step by step, and wait until the Action in github is completed, and the release is successful.
I am a software vendor with a .net web solution that I want customers to be able to easily install / deploy into Azure Web Web Apps / Azure Websites along with a Sql Azure backend. I can't find any installer tool that supports this scenario. I have also looked into the Azure Marketplace but it seems the only option there is to create VM images. I want my customer's to avoid having to deploy to an manage VMs and adopt the IaaS model. Instead they should be able to install to Azure Web Apps with a package that copies all the web solution files and installs and connects the Azure Sql. Is this possible or will I have to manually deploy and configure Azure solution for each customer?
You can use the VS Marketplace to do the deployment. What you need is to create an ARM template. There is a huge number of samples here: https://github.com/Azure/azure-quickstart-templates - you can pick one of the web app ones - for example: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/resources/templates/201-web-app-sql-database/ - has a SQL database linked to a web app.
The ARM template allows you to do a "no-hands" deployment of the resources and know when they are ready for further action. You can also deploy from any of the supported continuous deployment options (see the template with a GitHub connection as an example) or you can use ftp/msdeploy after the deployment is successful.
This is a good tutorial https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-resource-manager/vs-azure-tools-resource-groups-deployment-projects-create-deploy
This is the github example mentioned in previous answer
https://github.com/Azure/azure-quickstart-templates/tree/master/201-web-app-github-deploy
Is it possible to create a tomcat and MySQL/SqlServer service using azure-sdk-for-java or azure-sdk-for-net, and deploy a war file programmatically?
I went through the example codes about creating resource groups and virtual machines, but couldn't find an api about creating a tomcat, sqlserver or MySQL inside sdk.
If this is not possible what is the way to make a programmatic/automatic deployment to azure?
According to your description, based on my understanding, I think you want to create an Azure website with tomcat and database to deploy a Java WebApp all at one time programmatically.
For the purpose, per my experience, you need to implement these via do the three steps below.
Create a webapp with tomcat & database using ARM template in a Java/.NET program with Azure SDK for Java/.NET. There are many existing samples which include two Azure deployment templates (sample 1, 2) & sample deployment program (for Java & .NET) that you can refer to.
Get publish settings file or set deployment credentials to get the credentials you used for deployment. It seems that you need to do this step manually, not programmatically.
Deploy your Java WebApp programmatically via FTP, Kudu REST API or others that you can refer to some offical documents & wiki. Meanwhile, you can refer to the Azure Java WebApp sample on GitHub to know what files you need to upload.
Hope it helps. Any concern, please feel free to let me know.
Am new to Azure and Websites.
On Boarded to Azure Cloud Services with CSPKG file.
Am looking to create a package for Websites from the Build and use it later to deploy in my Azure Subscription.
Was wondering if i can have CSPKG file for a Website and how to generate it.
Or is there a better way to package your Azure Website contents ( Without knowing the target where it will be deployed).
Please Note: I am aware of FTP, GIT and Deploy directly from Visual Studio.
Want to know the process of getting the package out of MSBuild without targets and Deployment.
Thanks,
Pradeep.
Azure Websites does not support CSPKG.
An alternate approach would be a WebDeploy package.
My goal is to be able to deploy a package of ASP.NET website stored in Azure Storage as Azure Web Site programmatically (using C# ASP.NET) with just a click of a button. I know this can be done if I will deploy it as Azure Cloud Service by using Service Management API or azure powershell.
I dig into the source code of azure powershell and I see that it can only deploy from local Git and GitHub repo. Does anyone have any idea of how to do it from Azure Storage?
Note: I want to be able to manage all the Web Deploy Packages (stored in Azure Storage) online. I have an ASP.NET MVC website deployed as Azure web site and I will be using this one to automate deployments.
How are you packaging your site in blog storage? One way to publish to Windows Azure Web Sites is to use web deploy. You could package your site as a web deploy package as part of your build, and then use msdeploy.exe to push your bits to the site:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd569106(v=ws.10).aspx
This would be no different from using web deploy to publish to an IIS Server.
It looks like someone else has used this approach with success:

Hope this helps!
You could totally do this using the Windows Azure Management Libraries and the Storage SDK together. If I'm right in reading this, do you want a Web Site that you use to spin up new Cloud Services, and you want to deploy those services from the server side of your web site. If that's the case, you could do that using the Compute Management Client NuGet.
