Answer 1

I spoke to the aspnet IISIntegration team members and found my solution.

tldr: Empty out your wwwroot folder on kudu.

The issue relates to having old things leftover from previous 1.x deployments

Step 1:

Navigate to the Kudu Console (https://{yourapp}.scm.azurewebsites.net/)

Step 2:

Step 3:

(Note: navigate into the "site" directory)

(Note: there is a wwwroot folder within this wwwroot. You should delete the one that is in the "site" directory)

Step 4:

Add a new empty folder called wwwroot where you just deleted the previous one (within "site" directory)

(Note: my deployment failed when I didn't have the empty wwwroot folder in there)

Step 5: Redeploy your app and hopefully it works. Good luck
