.NET Core 1.1 RTM was announced yesterday along with Visual Studio for Mac! So of course, I jumped right over to install them both. During the install of the 1.1 version of .NET Core from the downloads page, hit a snag on OSX. If you have seen recent Scott Hanselman talk ASP.NET Core, there is a slide he uses where he references "How do you like your ASP.NET?" I'm somewhere between "medium-rare" and "medium-well", depends on the machine I am using. I had the preview bits installed which had a version of 1.0.0-preview2.1-003155 and now the RC 1.1 is released with version of 1.0.0-preview2-1-003177. When running the command dotnet --info...

I use OSX as my primary development machine but still at time run to Visual Studio for work stuff, new features I'm testing etc. The most recent reason is Visual Studio '15 Preview and the new Docker features that are quite awesome. I didn't want to fire up the ThinkPad, connect it to the big monitor etc; so it was time to get Docker working on Parallels. Come to find out it was a few simple configurations. Check the "Enable nested virtualization" option under Hardware / CPU & Memory - Advanced Settings of your Windows 10 VM. Another setting I might suggest is setting the Memory somewhere between 4 - 8 GB of RAM or Docker may not start. Shared Drives...

Apache is a very popular HTTP server and can be configured as a proxy to redirect HTTP traffic similar to nginx. In this guide, we will learn how to set up Apache on CentOS 7 and use it as a reverse-proxy to welcome incoming connections and redirect them to the ASP.NET Core application running on Kestrel. For this purpose, we will use the mod_proxy extension and other related Apache modules. Prerequisites A server running CentOS 7, with a standard user account with sudo privilege. An existing ASP.NET Core application. Publish your application Run dotnet publish -c Release from your development environment to package your application into a self-contained directory that can run on your server. The published...

I put out a survey on twitter a few months ago on "What was challenging you most about ASP.NET Core" What is challenging you most about #aspnetcore— Shayne Boyer (@spboyer) April 26, 2016 ...ironically it was Documentation. Looking over the list of issues there is a range of topics to cover. Everything from simple variable renaming to full tutorials. Now I am asking you, the community, what do you want to have in the docs, what's most important to you? ASP.NET is open source, and the Docs are included in that umbrella. So create issues, +1 to get them prioritized, comment, and share. ASP.NET on Github - https://github.com/aspnet ASP.NET Docs on -...
