Local IIS not working with 4.3

Everything working nicely with IISExpress so setup is generally ok.

Can't get it to work on IIS, have everything set up as I feel is a standard set up.

Getting error below which points to web.config, but can't find anything obvious, ideas?

Web.config:

From Microsoft it's saying web.config is the problem, but just don't see anything wrong with it...

HResult code 0x8007000d
Error message:

Server Error in Application "application name"
HTTP Error 500.19 – Internal Server Error
HRESULT: 0x8007000d
Description of HRESULT
The requested page cannot be accessed because the related configuration data for the page is invalid.

Cause for HResult code 0x8007000d
This problem occurs because the ApplicationHost.config file or the Web.config file contains a malformed XML element.

Resolution for HResult code 0x8007000d
Delete the malformed XML element from the ApplicationHost.config file or from the Web.config file.

Huh, I ran it through an XML validator and it's valid XML, however this is suspect:

Config File     \\?\C:\Git\main\nopCommerce_4.3_Clean\Presentation\Nop.Web\web.config

I'm guessing that IIS cannot find the actual file.  Between IIS Express and regular IIS, are the sites pointing to the exact same directory?

Also, enable logging while you're at it:

stdoutLogEnabled="true"

Did you use publish option to deploy to local IIS ? or did the manual copy of files ?

did not publish.

not really a manual copy, just created website in IIS and pointed to source code files

C:\Git\main\nopCommerce_4.3_Clean\Presentation\Nop.Web

goal is to be able to have the site working locally without having to open VS and start the debugger (again, works great with IIS express, so high level things are 'working')

thx!

forgot to mention to make sure IIUSERS has folder permissions, or if using App Pool mapped to a user then that user has folder permissions

Multiple things happen when you publish from Visual Studio to the Local IIS. (This is the recommended way to do development also). Once you configure, deployment to the production server is just a change of server name and every thing works like charm.

The hard way is to manually do each step.

figured out was doing folder publish, trying iis now, ty

I can not run my development website in IIS but not without Visual Studio as there is a connection error I have not worked out
To run the development website in Visual Studio using IIS
I have a domain name configured in the DNS Hosts file
127.0.01     localtest43.selectsystems.com.au
Then I Create the Web in IIS and point it at C:\source43\Presentation\Nop.Web
Then bind the above domain in IIS to the website (both http:// and https://)
Then setup Visual Studio and run in Administrator mode

trying to get it working without having Visual Studio open, it shouldn't have to be.

this is a .netcore issue vs. just a nopcommerce issue.

i made a sample .net app, works fine.

sample .netcore app, same error as nopcommerece

so a .netcore error for all .netcore apps on my local box which in window 10 btw
