C# backend Azure

Question

I have a C# application that is built using the .NET Core Web API template. This works great locally and I can access the rest endpoints in my application.

For example /api/person/0 where 0 is the id of a person.

The problem is with Azure. When I create an app service and use a github repository the app gets deployed. In the logs I see the following partial error:

Physical Path   C:\home\site\wwwroot\api\gerecht\1

Azure thinks that my C# app is a simple website and tries to access the path as a physical file and not as an endpoint in my application. Why is Azure not accessing the endpoint?

Thanks

How did you deploy the application to Azure?

[Brute Force] You may want to use GitHub Action from inside Visual Studio for this.

• Right Click Publish
• Azure (Select appropriate OS)
• Deploy using GitHub Action

I experience this in the past and that was how I solved it.

Alternatively, you could use the Azure CLI from inside the directory that contains your .csproj file.
