As I commented, I got similar problem while hosting web api on shared hosting. The solution is to remove Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform package and clean and build

You can deploy even without Roslyn with no change in code. Open NuGet Package Manager window and uninstall Microsoft.CodeDom.Providers.DotNetCompilerPlatform package and rebuild & republish. This uninstallation also removes CodeDom configuration from web.config file. This will solve your purpose. Basically this will not generate any csc.exe, vbc.exe files inside bin folder.
