System.InvalidOperationException: 'A path base can only be configured using IApplicationBuilder.UsePathBase().' [duplicate]

Answer 1

I was setting the relative path within applicationUrl in launchSettings.json which was causing the error:

"applicationUrl": "https://localhost:5001/admin",

I changed that back to the root URL and instead added a launchUrl with the path which fixed the error and launched the path I wanted on start:

"applicationUrl": "https://localhost:5001",
"launchUrl": "admin"
