404 on Azure but not on local development machine

Question

I migrated a MVC project from Asp.net 5 RC1-final to core 1.0.1. On my Development machine everything runs perfect but when I publish it to Azure WebApp I get a 404 on every route. I tried to debug the site and it seems that the View can not be found. Any idea what it could be or how I can get a more detailed error report?

Answer 1

The Error was that I did not add the Views under publishOption in the project.json.

Before:

"publishOptions": {
"include": [
  "wwwroot",
  "web.config"
]
},

Now:

"publishOptions": {
"include": [
  "wwwroot",
  "Views",
  "web.config"
]
},

Answer 2

Check to see whether File Publish Option Remove Additional Files At Destination is checked. If it is not checked, check it and publish. It should delete all files at the destination and publish the upgrade.
