After playing with Azure I was in the MS(Microsoft) headspace and while browsing the net I came across a website with a .asp extension, so I thought i’d look at building a website with ASP.NET Core.
So after figuring out the difference between ASP.NET and ASP.NET Core, core being the updated method which is cross platform whereas Net is only for windows. I thought I’d have a go at the tutorial for building a “SIMPLE” webpage. Then I came across MVC ( Model, Controller, View) for web sites. A bit complicated, although I had come across the concept with PHP CodeIgniter, and I didn’t fare too well then, I was using CRUD processes for displaying data in a web page.
So I’m doing a basic tutorial with a Razor Page setup (that then Builds Model and I presume a Controller) which is for a Movie DataBase webpage build, so I thought I’d follow that.
The link to the tutoriasl is HERE<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After updating VS from 16.3.10 to 16.4.2 the web .NetCore template had a bug and wouldn’t let me proceed. I just kept on getting error logs. It took me a while to figure out how to drop the templates (via the VS installer – untick all the boxes) and re-install the templates. It would not make a Scaffold (I think that creates an SQLite DB and links to it). So a few wasted hours re-setting up VS to get it running again. So back on track of page 2 of the tutorial. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I worked on with the tutorial and finally got it working. So have now got a CRUD with lightweight database for films. There were a couple of gotcha’s in the tutorial, the erros showed up and I finally figured out what to do. Not a well written tutorial for beginners, I think there was a presumption regarding the familiarity of student with C# and Vis Studio. Anyway, I follwed through and got it running. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Frankly this is a bloody hard method to get a page up with a database behind. Just as much a pain as CodeIgniter.This environment is pretty confusing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I sort of fumbled through the tutorial. Still there was a bit of learning there, but not too much <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transfer to Website<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

I’d like to take the page, which runs on my localhost and put it across on my windows server which is running windows. That doesn’t seem too obvious . I did a build for a RELEASE, on ANY CPU with IIS Express but there is no HTML page to put up on a website, so still a bit of learning to do. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
