Microsoft Azure supports different deployment types for Wisej (ASP.NET) applications. You can deploy to a Web Site (renamed to Web Service), to an IIS instance or a to a Virtual Machine with IIS.
In all cases you can publish directly from Visual Studio. Please refer to the Visual Studio Publishing guide and to Microsoft's Azure Deployment documentation for ASP.NET.
.NET Framework v4.x
.NET Core
You cannot publish .NET Framework v4.x projects to Azure using the Visual Studio Publishing Tool with the new SDK-Project format.
The application was published successfully but shows an error 'Couldn't find Wisej.Framework' on startup.
Remove <add name="Wisej" type="Wisej.Core.HttpModule, Wisej.Framework" /> from <modules> in web.config.
Make sure <add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModuleV2" resourceType="Unspecified" /> is uncommented under <handlers> in web.config.
When deploying on .NET Core, you are unable to use the web.config file to configure the System.Web.HttpForbiddenHandler, which is typically used to block the downloading of potentially sensitive .json files. As a result, these .json files could become accessible for downloading, which might pose a security vulnerability.
Since ASP.NET Core relies on middleware modules instead of using traditional HttpHandlers and HttpModules, to secure specific files or directories, you need to modify the configuration in the Startup.cs file. Adjusting the middleware settings within Startup.cs allows you to implement security measures to protect sensitive files or directories effectively.
Below is an example of how to block access to specific files or directories in ASP.NET Core, based on your security requirements. You can customize the middleware configuration in the Startup.cs file to meet your particular security needs.
