HTTP Error 500.35 - ANCM Multiple In-Process Applications in same Process ASP.NET Core 3
C#asp.net CoreC# Problem Overview
From this morning without any changes to the code of the project, a very simple Web API, one controller and 3 methods, with Swagger, it doesn't start anymore and I get the error:
> HTTP Error 500.35 - ANCM Multiple In-Process Applications in same Process
Event viewer report the most useless message:
> IIS Express AspNetCore Module V2: Failed to start application > '/LM/W3SVC/2/ROOT/docs', ErrorCode '0x80004005'.
Restarted the system several times.
I'm using Visual Studio 2019, the application successfully compile and a few minutes ago it was working fine. No new software has been installed, no packages added. Tried also clean and rebuild.
I've just modified the comment of a method. Obviously I've tried also to restore the previous comment but I get always the same message.
What can I do?
Is net core still too unstable to be used professionally?
UPDATE
The same code launched from the same version of Visual Studio but in another PC runs properly.
UPDATE 2
Below the code of the application:
startup.cs
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Builder;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.FileProviders;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;
using Microsoft.OpenApi.Models;
using System;
using System.IO;
using System.Reflection;
namespace WFP_GeoAPIs
{
public class Startup
{
public Startup(IConfiguration configuration)
{
Configuration = configuration;
}
public IConfiguration Configuration { get; }
public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
services.AddControllers();
services.AddSwaggerGen(c =>
{
c.SwaggerDoc("v1", new OpenApiInfo() { Title = "Geographic APIs", Version = "v1.0.0" });
var xmlFile = $"{Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().Name}.XML";
var xmlPath = Path.Combine(AppContext.BaseDirectory, xmlFile);
c.IncludeXmlComments(xmlPath);
});
}
public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
{
if (env.IsDevelopment())
{
app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
}
app.UseStaticFiles(new StaticFileOptions
{
FileProvider = new PhysicalFileProvider(
Path.Combine(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory(), "swagger-ui")),
RequestPath = "/swagger-ui"
});
app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseRouting();
app.UseAuthorization();
app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
{
endpoints.MapControllers();
});
app.UseSwagger();
app.UseSwaggerUI(c =>
{
c.SwaggerEndpoint("/swagger/v1/swagger.json", "GeoAPIs Ver 1.0.0");
c.RoutePrefix = "docs";
c.InjectStylesheet("/swagger-ui/custom.css");
});
}
}
}
Here is the launchsettings.json:
{
"$schema": "http://json.schemastore.org/launchsettings.json",
"iisSettings": {
"windowsAuthentication": false,
"anonymousAuthentication": true,
"iisExpress": {
"applicationUrl": "http://localhost:51319",
"sslPort": 44345
}
},
"profiles": {
"IIS Express": {
"commandName": "IISExpress",
"launchBrowser": true,
"launchUrl": "docs",
"environmentVariables": {
"ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
}
},
"WFP_GeoAPIs": {
"commandName": "Project",
"launchBrowser": true,
"launchUrl": "docs",
"applicationUrl": "https://localhost:5001;http://localhost:5000",
"environmentVariables": {
"ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
}
}
}
}
but coping the project on another PC with the same Visual Studio version works fine, so it looks like the is a configuration bug in the .NET Core or VIsual Studio property...
C# Solutions
Solution 1 - C#
It's currently a bug in VS2019 - (Nov 4 '2019)
1.) Close your solution
2.) Delete applicationhost.config
in folder .vs
or delete the whole .vs
folder.
The .vs
folder is a hidden folder and is next to your solution file usually.
3.) Restart your solution again
Solution 2 - C#
Thanks to @Lex Li he has given me the solution.
The issue was in the applicationhost.config, the metabase file containing all the settings for the IISExpress launch by Visual Studio to run your web application.
For Visual Studio 2019, this file is located in
$(solutionDir)\.vs\{projectName}\config\applicationhost.config
For other version check this post: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/12946476/where-is-the-iis-express-configuration-metabase-file-found
under the
<sites>
<site name="WebSite1" id="1" serverAutoStart="true">

</siteDefaults>
<applicationDefaults applicationPool="Clr4IntegratedAppPool" />
<virtualDirectoryDefaults allowSubDirConfig="true" />
</sites>
Where there are some strange setting defined by
<application path="/docs" applicationPool="docs AppPool">
<virtualDirectory path="/" physicalPath="E:\Projects\MyProjectName" />
</application>
that has been certainly added when I've tried to set as start folder the /docs path.
Commenting out this setting and another one at the end of the file related to this path has solved the issue.
Solution 3 - C#
I got the same error when I did the following:
- Published two separate asp.net core websites
- In IIS, created two websites under "Default Web Site", each having physical path set to each of the publish folders in (1) respectively.
- Now whichever of the sites I open first works, and the second gives that error.
Problem:
Since both my sites are under "Default Web Site" they are both using DefaultAppPool, which is the cause of this error. The same error occurs when the sites are not under "Default Web Site" but use the same app pool.
Solution:
As mentioned in the docs,
> To fix this error, run apps in separate IIS application pools.
for me this problem was resolved when I started using separate app pools for each site.
Solution 4 - C#
I fixed the issue by deleting V2 in web.config file generated after publishing the solution.
<handlers>
<add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*"
modules="AspNetCoreModule" resourceType="Unspecified" />
</handlers>
instead of
<handlers>
<add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*"
modules="AspNetCoreModuleV2" resourceType="Unspecified" />
</handlers>
Solution 5 - C#
I had the same problem.
Add this line in .csproj file in <AspNetCoreHostingModel>OutOfProcess</AspNetCoreHostingModel
>
Although it is the 500.30 error it also fixed the 500.35 problem.

I hope help you.
Best regards.
Solution 6 - C#
In .csproj
file, set:
<PropertyGroup>
...
<AspNetCoreHostingModel>OutOfProcess</AspNetCoreHostingModel>
</PropertyGroup>
Allow host the same pool
Solution 7 - C#
If you see this error (HTTP Error 500.35 - Multiple In-Process Applications in same Process ASP.NET Core 3) after deploying your application to a server (in house or 3rd party hosting provider), it could be that the relevant module is not installed on the host server.
In my case, it didn't have AspNetCoreModuleV2
and I had to update the web.config from:
<add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModuleV2" resourceType="Unspecified" />
to:
<add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModule" resourceType="Unspecified" />
Alternatively, this can also be set in the .csproj file as follow:
<PropertyGroup>
<AspNetCoreModuleName>AspNetCoreModule</AspNetCoreModuleName>
</PropertyGroup>
Solution 8 - C#
The Most Easy And Reliable think which worked for me is , just simply put a simple index.html in main application , and treat every application in your solution as subapplications.
Solution 9 - C#
Solution 10 - C#
Change from inprocess to OutOfprocess in Web.config
Solution 11 - C#
in the .csproj
file you can add OutOfProcess
:
<PropertyGroup>
<TargetFramework>netcoreapp3.1</TargetFramework>
<AspNetCoreHostingModel>OutOfProcess</AspNetCoreHostingModel>
</PropertyGroup>
and this will generate this (on publish) in the web.config
:
<configuration>
<location path="." inheritInChildApplications="false">
<system.webServer>
<handlers>
<add name="aspNetCore" path="*" verb="*" modules="AspNetCoreModuleV2" resourceType="Unspecified" />
</handlers>
<aspNetCore processPath="dotnet" arguments=".\WebApplication3.dll" stdoutLogEnabled="false" stdoutLogFile=".\logs\stdout" hostingModel="OutOfProcess" />
</system.webServer>
</location>
</configuration>
note the OutOfProcess
,
an alternative would be to remove the V2
from the web.config
