Running ASP.NET 5 on Cloud 9

Question

Do you think it's technically possible to run ASP.NET 5 (vNext) inside Cloud9 environment?

I have followed the documentation on https://github.com/aspnet/home, everything seem to work fine, but when I run the command:

dnx . kestrel

mono is executed and start to use 100% of the CPU but the HTTP server is not working.

Your app looks fine, though I'm not at all familiar with cloud9. Does Kestrel's 0.0.0.0 work with dnx? — Matt DeKrey, May 21 '15 at 21:56
Servers running on Cloud9 workspaces need to listen to `0.0.0.0:8080` for them to accessible from the outside. Which IP:PORT are you running your server on? — Mutahhir, May 22 '15 at 07:53
@Mutahhir Yes, my command is: `"kestrel": "Microsoft.AspNet.Hosting --server Kestrel --server.urls http://0.0.0.0:8080"` — Davide Icardi, May 22 '15 at 07:55
I suspect it is some problem with `mono` or `kestrel` because the fact that the CPU goes to 100% for the mono process and it seems to be stuck. — Davide Icardi, May 22 '15 at 07:58
Hmm, even if CPU is 100%, and the process isn't killed, it should work. Is there some kind of error output or a flag you could turn on to get it? — Mutahhir, May 22 '15 at 09:36
There seems to be an issue with Kestrel on Linux. See here: http://carolynvanslyck.com/blog/2014/09/dotnet-vnext-impressions/ Scroll down to **Bye Bye IIS** then **Kestrel** to see the info section. — Mutahhir, May 22 '15 at 09:44

Using ASP.NET 5 rc1 I have succesfully executed ASP.NET on Cloud 9.

Installing instruction for ASP.NET 5

After dnvm and dnx are installed restore packages using

dnu restore

If you receive HTTP timeout errors first use (see https://stackoverflow.com/a/31975260/209727):

export MONO_THREADS_PER_CPU=2000    
dnu restore

Then run the web server using:

dnx web

Note that port 8080 is the default used by cloud 9 ide.
