Publishing an ASP.NET Core app to IIS (Internet Information Services) involves deploying a .NET 7 project to a web server running IIS, creating an IIS site, and installing the appropriate hosting bundle. Here’s a step-by-step description of the process:

Deploying a .NET 7 Project: Start by building your ASP.NET Core app using .NET 7. Once your app is ready for production, you can publish it to a folder on your local machine or a remote server. This process generates the necessary files and dependencies needed to run the app.

Creating an IIS Site: Next, you’ll need to create a new site in IIS that will host your ASP.NET Core app. Open IIS Manager on your server and create a new site with an appropriate name and bindings (such as hostname and port). You’ll need to specify the physical path of the folder where you published your app in the previous step.

Installing Hosting Bundle: ASP.NET Core apps require a hosting bundle to run in IIS. The hosting bundle is a separate installation that includes the ASP.NET Core runtime, libraries, and other dependencies. You’ll need to download and install the appropriate hosting bundle for .NET 7 on your server. This ensures that the server has the necessary runtime components to host your ASP.NET Core app.

Configuring App Pool: After installing the hosting bundle, you’ll need to configure the application pool for your ASP.NET Core app. In IIS Manager, locate the application pool associated with your site and configure it to use the appropriate .NET runtime version and pipeline mode (e.g., “No Managed Code” for ASP.NET Core apps).

Publishing the App to IIS: Once the site and app pool are set up, you can publish your ASP.NET Core app to IIS. This involves copying the published files from the folder where you published your app to the physical path of the site you created in IIS. Make sure to include all the necessary dependencies and files, such as appsettings.json and any other required assets.

Testing the App: Once the app is published, you can test it by accessing the site’s URL in a web browser. If everything is set up correctly, your ASP.NET Core app should now be up and running in IIS, ready to serve incoming requests.

In summary, publishing an ASP.NET Core app to IIS involves deploying a .NET 7 project, creating an IIS site, installing the appropriate hosting bundle, configuring the app pool, publishing the app files to IIS, and testing the app to ensure it’s running correctly. This process allows you to host and run your ASP.NET Core app in IIS, making it accessible to users via a web browser.
