I've created a default project in Visual Studio 2017 with ASP.NET Core 2.0. I've chosen the Web App with MVC and with Individual Use Auth. By default, it is coming up configured and working with https. I've tried disabling that by going into project properties and removing the user ssl and changing https to http but then I get either and IIS Express Connection error or a 404.

I've not see default https before. Where is that coming from and where can I disable it?

Update .Net 6

If you stumbled across this question, but are looking to disable SSL in .Net 6, follow these instructions:

  1. Disable SSL redirection by removing app.UseHttpsRedirection();
  2. (optional) define a default port to listen to with app.Run("http://localhost:5000"); If omitted, a random port will be assigned.

Original answer for .Net Core 2.0:

I've just created a default MVC app using net core 2.0.

To disable SSL, you need to do 2 steps. You can do this either by using the Visual Studio GUI, or by editing the launchsettings.json (further down)

  • go to your project properties
  • In the Debug category uncheck the SSL option
  • Copy the App Url over to the Start browser input enter image description here

Et voila:

If you are not a fan of using the interface, you can alternatively edit the launchsettings.json file, by setting sslPort: 0 and "launchUrl": "http://localhost:13121/" (or where ever you want to launch the application)

{
  "iisSettings": {
    "windowsAuthentication": false,
    "anonymousAuthentication": true,
    "iisExpress": {
      "applicationUrl": "http://localhost:13121/",
      "sslPort": 0 
    }
  },
  "profiles": {
    "IIS Express": {
      "commandName": "IISExpress",
      "launchBrowser": true,
      "launchUrl": "http://localhost:13121/",
      "environmentVariables": {
        "ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
      }
    },
    "WebApplication1": {
      "commandName": "Project",
      "launchBrowser": true,
      "environmentVariables": {
        "ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT": "Development"
      },
      "applicationUrl": "http://localhost:13122/"
    }
  }
}

Go to App Properties and uncheck "Enable SSL"

If the answer provided by @Marco didn't resolved the issue you can try this,

When you create new .net core mvc application there will be default meta tag generated in _Layout cshtml to upgrade the http request to https ( "http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy" content="upgrade-insecure-requests"). When you deploy your application to server without http you may need to remove the below tags

http-equiv="Content-Security-Policy" content="upgrade-insecure-requests"

Also comment the below line from Startup.cs file

app.UseHttpsRedirection();

It's most likely in your publish settings.

I had this issue and I simply went to the publish settings and discovered that after the build, the publish url contained https.
