.net core runtime install on server with .net

Question

User915516305 posted

Hi,

Have a working .net core CRUD application on  test server.

Looking to install on a production server which already hosts separate .net applications.

Just want to check will be no adverse affect to existing .net applications running on this server when install .net core runtime.

Could anyone confirm this?

Thanks

Installing .NET Core runtime is side by side.

However, if you install .NET Core "Runtime & Hosting Bundle", your IIS configuration is changed, and might affect ASP.NET applications in certain cases.

Since you do have a production environment, I assume you have enough resources to test things out before moving on.

Hi,

Thanks for update

Do you have a link for just installing the runtime?

Below mentions runtime and hosting bundle.

Hi,

Seems you mean your production server only have ASP.NET 4.x applications for now ?

Hi,

When ran dir %WINDIR%\Microsoft.Net\Framework\v* /O:-N /B at command prompt lists

v1, v2 and v4

Looks like other poster suggested is a runtime and a runtime & hosting bundle for .net core runtime.

Just want to make sure existing .net applications (which are data entry applications) would be unaffected by installing .net core runtime.

Thanks

I run classic asp (COM+), .NET 4.0, and ASP.NET Core on the same Win 2016 server.  Keep in mind, the community cannot speak to your setup or application.  As recommended test this configuration in a test environment before deploying to production.

Hi,

Yes a full ASP.NET Core app doesn't depend at all on ASP.NET 4.x and the other way round. I assume you are not using https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/?view=aspnetcore-3.0#aspnet-core-targeting-net-framework

ASP.NET Core 3 will only run using the .NET Core runtime.
