Answer 2

I recently had the same issue and was able to solve it by setting the requestTimeout within the web.config:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
  <location path="." inheritInChildApplications="false">
    <system.webServer>
      <handlers>
        <add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModuleV2" resourceType="Unspecified" />
      </handlers>
      <aspNetCore processPath=".\PROJECT.exe" stdoutLogEnabled="false" stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" requestTimeout="00:30:00"/>
    </system.webServer>
  </location>
</configuration>

For us its not related with code, appservice redeploy and then restart needs to be done

Answer 4

I was able to solve this issue by removing forwardWindowsAuthToken from the web.config file under wwwroot.

1. Navigate to src/ProjectName/wwwroot
2. Open the web.config
3. In the httpPlatformremove the forwardWindowsAuthToken="true/false" property

Redeploy and mine worked fine.

Answer 5

I got the same error. After searching some solutions, I changed the code, replacing the async method calls with non-async ones, regarding the notes that thread pool might exceed the allowed capacity. This did not work. Then I increased the request timeout in web.config to 20 minutes and it is resolved.

Add the string below in web.config file.

requestTimeout="00:20:00"

as

<aspNetCore processPath="dotnet" arguments=".\API.dll" stdoutLogEnabled="false" stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" requestTimeout="00:20:00" />

Today we had the same problem. In our case it was caused by a failing Debug.Assert(...).
