How to host a asp .net core application under a sub folder

Question

I have a asp .net core app running on Linux using Kestrel.

It binds to the ip ok on port 80.

But the nginx reverse proxy site needs to host the app under a non-r

Answer 1

For me (using .NET Core 3.1) it was a bit different, using ScottC's answer it failed to find the static files as it was looking in the root of the my-app directory, not in my-app/wwwroot

This config worked for me in Startup.cs:

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
{
    ...
    if (env.IsDevelopment())
    {
        ...
    }
    else
    {
        ...
        app.UsePathBase("/my-app");
    }

    app.UseStaticFiles();
    ...

}
