server blazor | does the server restart by itself?

Question

User2110873642 posted

in web forms, the server would idle out, and not run, or just force a restart every now and then.

does blazor have similar behavior? or does it keep running? and would the console tell me about it? or does it do it invisibly?

when i test it in visual studio debugger, the connectionpipline never disconnects. even after hours.

Idle timeout is an IIS feature.

If you've started kestrel in the console, I'm pretty sure there's no idle timeout like IIS.

Sounds right for debugging.

what is kestrel ? is that the .exe console in the /publish folder?

if i host it with the .exe file, it doesnt idle?

and how can i choose a domainname like Subsite.Testsite.com without IIS?

I don't have the energy (and it's time for a beer) to explain the details of hosting, IIS, Kestrel, etc. Can you just read the docs?

Great post. It was much needed. Love your simplistic style of explanation. :)
