ASP.Net Core "This localhost page can’t be found" HTTP ERROR 404-CodePudding

When I want to run my project with .Net Core MVC architecture with Visual Studio 2019 program on my Mac, I get the error "This localhost page can't be found". I am sharing Startup.cs and controller classes.

I am working with .NetCore version 3.1.

Thanks in advance.

namespace Test
{
public class Startup
{
    public Startup(IConfiguration configuration)
    {
        Configuration = configuration;
    }

    public IConfiguration Configuration { get; }

    // This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to add services to the container.
    public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
    {
        services.AddControllers();
        services.AddSingleton<VendorRegistrationService>();
        services.AddCors(o => o.AddPolicy("ReactPolicy", builder =>
        {
            builder.AllowAnyOrigin()
                   .AllowAnyMethod()
                   .AllowAnyHeader();
            //.AllowCredentials();
        }));
    }

    // This method gets called by the runtime. Use this method to configure the HTTP request pipeline.
    public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
    {
        if (env.IsDevelopment())
        {
            app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
        }

        app.UseHttpsRedirection();

        app.UseRouting();

        app.UseCors("ReactPolicy");

        app.UseAuthorization();

        app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
        {
            endpoints.MapControllers();
        });
    }
 }
}

VendorRegistrationController.cs

 namespace Test.Controllers
{

[Produces("application/json")]
[Route("api/[controller]")]
[ApiController]
[EnableCors("ReactPolicy")]

public class VendorRegistrationController : ControllerBase
{
    public readonly VendorRegistrationService vendorRegistrationService;

    public VendorRegistrationController(VendorRegistrationService vendorRegistrationService)
    {
        this.vendorRegistrationService = vendorRegistrationService;
    }

    [HttpPost]
    public IActionResult Post([FromBody] VendorRegistration vendorRegistration)
    {
        return CreatedAtAction("Get", vendorRegistrationService.Create(vendorRegistration));
     }
  }
 }

It looks like it is API but you don't have a start page. By default it is usually Home/index action. This is why you have so srange screen , but APIs will work properly.

I don't like this weird screens and usually add a start point. Just add to your controller something like this. Doesn' t matter what is the name of action, the most important that it should have a root route.

[Route("/")]
public IActionResult Start()
        {
            var content = "<html><body><h1>Hello!</h1><p> <h3> Test API Service Is Ready To Work!!! </h3> </p></body></html>";

            return new ContentResult()
            {
                Content = content,
                ContentType = "text/html",
            };
        }

I am rendering the view, but you can create a real view and return.

Is this a web api project?

Check this configuration of yours:

"profiles": {
    "IIS Express": {
      "commandName": "IISExpress",
      "launchBrowser": true,
      "launchUrl": "api/home/test",
      "environmentVariables": {
        "ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
      }
    },

If your launchUrl is not given a default url or given a wrong route, the above error will occur, and the default launch path cannot be found. You can add what you need, such as:

Controller

namespace WebApplication130.Controllers
{

    [ApiController]
    [Route("api/[controller]")]
    public class HomeController : Controller
    {

        [Route("test")]
        public string Index()
        {
            return "sucess!";
        }
    }
}

Result:
