asp core net C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe

Question

Every time after publishing my project to iis i need to change in the web config the processPath attribute from processPath="dotnet.exe" to processPath="C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe" to start my program.

I know that i can add this attribute/parameter to my project, but i don't know how. In my project i have not a web file config. The config file as i understand is created automaticaaly when i publish my project.

Just add path of dotnet.exe to Environment variable Path

This PC -> Properties -> Advanced system settings -> Environment Variables... -> System variables -> Path -> Edit -> New -> C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe

i had added the new value for Path in my enviroment PC where iis is running but the processPath is still showing dotnet.exe – Oscar Dominguez Navarrete Oct 24 '17 at 14:30
Of course, it won't change your processPath value. Leave it as is and try to run. It just allow you to use `processPath="dotnet.exe"` instead of `processPath="C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe"` So you do not need make any chnages after publishing – Roman Marusyk Oct 24 '17 at 14:42
Unfortunately my application is nort running. I made a mistake when i wrote that the value of processPath of my web config file is "donet.exe". The value is only "donet" – Oscar Dominguez Navarrete Oct 24 '17 at 15:10
It doesn't matter. Set `processPath="dotnet"` and add `C:\Program Files\dotnet\dotnet.exe` to Environment Variables. If it doesn't help then describe the error that you get – Roman Marusyk Oct 24 '17 at 15:13
it does not help. I'm getting error 502.5 Process failure(Application process failed to start). – Oscar Dominguez Navarrete Oct 25 '17 at 06:04
