oqtane.framework: Installing Oqtane on IIS fail

I followed the instructions in Oqtane Blog on how to install Oqtane on IIS step by step with Oqtane 2.0.0 (except step 4 LocalDB).

Starting the website fails with the error An error has occurred. This application may no longer respond until reloaded. Reload.

Browser Console content:

Error: There was an unhandled exception on the current circuit, so this circuit will be terminated. For more details turn on detailed exceptions by setting 'DetailedErrors: true' in 'appSettings.Development.json' or set 'CircuitOptions.DetailedErrors'.

Uncaught (in promise) Error: Invocation canceled due to the underlying connection being closed.

I have added 'appSettings.Development.json' file with 'DetailedErrors: true' into installation folder. Still same error message.

Operating System Event Viewer content:

Application 'MACHINE/WEBROOT/APPHOST/OQTANE.ME' has shutdown.

oqtane.me is the hosts file entry: 127.0.0.1 oqtane.me

Having some experience with IIS, Application Pools, hosts file and so on from experimenting with DNN i don’t thing i made a basic error during setup. What could be wrong here? Could someone setup Oqtane 2.0.0 according to the instructions within the blog?

Ok the solution is simple. Change your tld to .local and the setup page loads. I am guessing some kind of check is going on in the browser or IIS and with .dev being available producing and issue. https://icannwiki.org/.dev

Suggest updating the blog post

specify a Host name ( ie. “oqtane.dev” ) - this host name needs to be mapped to the machine and the easiest method is to follow the instructions in Step 8 “oqtane.dev” to “oqtane.local”
