Two wwwroot on Azure

Question

In my VS2015 environment I have a folder structure like this:

--/project
----/wwwroot
-------/js
-------index.html
----web.config
----project.json
...
...

When I publish my app to Azure, Azure puts everything under site/wwwroot. In this case I have two wwwroot folders, one under another. I don't mind this but my home page is not accessible. If I change the virtual applications/directories settings to point to site/wwwroot/wwwroot in Azure, I can see the home page but the application is not usable (WEB APIs, etc).

Any ideas on how to make this work?

Is this a DNX application? – viperguynaz Aug 29 '16 at 17:31 — viperguynaz, Aug 29 '16 at 17:31

You seem to have both web.config and Project.json.

So is this ASP.NET core or the legacy ASP.NET application? You will see another wwwroot in case of a ASP.NET core application.

See this article once on how to publish the web app: https://docs.asp.net/en/latest/tutorials/publish-to-azure-webapp-using-vs.html

That was it. I did not notice the second wwwroot at first. Thanks. – RJCurry Jul 12 '22 at 23:18
