Answer 1

Open the .csproj file and under Project > PropertyGroup > AspNetCoreHostingModel, change the value “InProcess” to “OutOfProcess”.

Answer 2

Change platform target to Any CPU.

Answer 3

I'm also getting "HTTP Error 500.0 - ANCM In-Process Handler Load Failure"

Except in my case...Everything was running great until I got the Blue Screen of Death.

I have a solution with two startup projects.
One is an API (that comes up) and the other is a WebApp(which gets the error). Both are .NET Core 3.1..also VS2019.

First I tried setting a break point in Main() of program.cs...it never got this far.

 public static void Main(string[] args)
 {
     CreateHostBuilder(args).Build().Run();
 }

On a hunch...I Looked at the NuGet packages installed. I uninstalled and (re)installed

Microsoft.AspNetCore.Mvc.Razor.RuntimeCompilation(3.1.6)

...and now its working again.

For more info, in web.config, set

stdoutLogEnabled="true"

then check the logs folder. In my case it had nothing to do with project, publishing or hosting settings - it was my fault for not copying a file essential to my app. The error was simply "Could not find file "D:\Development\IIS Hosting Test\filename.ext"

Answer 5

I had the same issue in .Net core 2.2. When I replace

web.config:

<handlers>
    <add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModuleV2" resourceType="Unspecified" />
</handlers>

to

<handlers>
    <add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModule" resourceType="Unspecified" />
</handlers>

then it works fine.

Note: The same solution also works for .Net core 2.2 and other upper versions as well.

Answer 6

I had the same error.

According to Microsoft(https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core/current/runtime), We should install the 'ASP.NET Core Hosting Bundle' in our hosting server.

'The ASP.NET Core Hosting Bundle includes the .NET Core runtime and ASP.NET Core runtime. If installed on a machine with IIS it will also add the ASP.NET Core IIS Module'

After I did, The 'AspNetCoreModuleV2' installed on my server and everything works well. It didn't need to change your 'web.config' file.
