How to change the port number for Asp.Net core app?

Question

I added the following section in project.json.

  \"commands\": {
    \"run\": \"run server.urls=http://localhost:8082\",
    \"web\": \"Microsof         


        

Answer 1

All the other answer accounts only for http URLs. If the URL is https, then do as follows,

1. Open launchsettings.json under Properties of the API project.

2. Change the sslPort under iisSettings -> iisExpress

A sample launchsettings.json will look as follows

{
  "iisSettings": {
    "iisExpress": {
      "applicationUrl": "http://localhost:12345",
      "sslPort": 98765 <== Change_This
    }
  },

Answer 2

We can use this command to run our host project via Windows Powershell without IIS and visual studio on a separate port. Default of krestel web server is 5001

$env:ASPNETCORE_URLS="http://localhost:22742" ; dotnet run

Answer 3

you can also code like this

        IConfiguration config  = new ConfigurationBuilder()
        .AddCommandLine(args)
        .Build(); 
        var host = new WebHostBuilder()
         .UseConfiguration(config)
         .UseKestrel()
         .UseContentRoot(Directory.GetCurrentDirectory()) 
         .UseStartup<Startup>()
         .Build();

and set up your application by command line :dotnet run --server.urls http://*:5555

Answer 4

It's working to me.

I use Asp.net core 2.2 (this way supported in asp.net core 2.1 and upper version).

add Kestrel section in appsettings.json file. like this:

{
  "Kestrel": {
    "EndPoints": {
      "Http": {
        "Url": "http://localhost:4300"
      }
    }
  },
  "Logging": {
    "LogLevel": {
      "Default": "Warning"
    }
  },
  "AllowedHosts": "*"
}

and in Startup.cs:

public Startup(IConfiguration configuration, IHostingEnvironment env)
{
      var builder = new ConfigurationBuilder()
         .SetBasePath(env.ContentRootPath)
         .AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: false, reloadOnChange: true)
         .AddEnvironmentVariables();

      Configuration = builder.Build();
}

Answer 5

In visual studio 2017 we can change the port number from LaunchSetting.json

In Properties-> LaunchSettings.json.

Open LaunchSettings.json and change the Port Number.

Change the port Number in json file

Go to your program.cs file add UseUrs method to set your url, make sure you don't use a reserved url or port

 public class Program
    {
        public static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            BuildWebHost(args).Run();
        }

        public static IWebHost BuildWebHost(string[] args) =>
            WebHost.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
                .UseStartup<Startup>()

                // params string[] urls
                .UseUrls(urls: "http://localhost:10000")

                .Build();
    }
