Azure release pipeline publish to NetCore 3.1 linux app service fails with exit code 145 - 'Not possible to find any .NET Core SDKs' in log

I'm publishing a .net core 3.1 app that is saved in an Azure DevOps repo, built in a build pipeline and published to an Azure Linux Web App Service container. The whole process seems to go well and the according to the deployment blade in the App Service the deployment was successful.

Expected Result

I expect to see my deployed website when I go to the public URL.

Actual Result

Instead I see the new host page that says "Hey, .NET Core developers! Your app service is up and running. Time to take the next step and deploy your code".

Additional Info

It appears that the app service is launching the default app because it's having a problem starting my published app.

The startup command I've specified in the app service general configuration is:

dotnet "SmartSAR.dll"

Log for App Service startup

Build Pipeline YAML

    configuration: '$(buildConfiguration)'

- task: VSTest@2
  inputs:
    platform: '$(buildPlatform)'

- task: PublishBuildArtifacts@1

The artifact generated is a drop containing a WebApp.zip deployment file (plus associated files).

From what I can tell, the dll being generated that I need to start is SmartSAR.dll. From the build log:

Building target "_CopyOutOfDateSourceItemsToOutputDirectory" partially, because some output files are out of date with respect to their input files.
  Copying file from "d:\a\1\s\SmartSAR\obj\Release\netcoreapp3.1\SmartSAR.exe" to "d:\a\1\s\SmartSAR\bin\Release\netcoreapp3.1\SmartSAR.exe".
CopyFilesToOutputDirectory:
  Copying file from "d:\a\1\s\SmartSAR\obj\Release\netcoreapp3.1\SmartSAR.dll" to "d:\a\1\s\SmartSAR\bin\Release\netcoreapp3.1\SmartSAR.dll".
  SmartSAR -> d:\a\1\s\SmartSAR\bin\Release\netcoreapp3.1\SmartSAR.dll
  Copying file from "d:\a\1\s\SmartSAR\obj\Release\netcoreapp3.1\SmartSAR.pdb" to "d:\a\1\s\SmartSAR\bin\Release\netcoreapp3.1\SmartSAR.pdb".

I just notice that the auto-generated yaml is for a Windows app image. Oops. Working on switching the build pipeline to target ubuntu-latest instead. – platypusjh

Did you set the Azure web app's general settings stack property to .NET Core?

The issue was I used the default YAML generated for the build pipeline and I didn't notice it was targeting a Windows build image! (I blame lack of sleep.)

Here's the YAML I used for the final working pipeline:

trigger:
- main

pool:
  vmImage: 'ubuntu-latest'

variables:
  buildConfiguration: 'Release'

steps:

    - task: UseDotNet@2 
      displayName: ".NET Core 3.1.x"
      inputs:
        version: '3.1.x'
        packageType: sdk
    - script: dotnet build --configuration $(buildConfiguration)
      displayName: 'dotnet build $(buildConfiguration)'

    - task: DotNetCoreCLI@2
      displayName: "Test"
      inputs:
        command: test
        projects: '**/*tests/*.csproj'
        arguments: '--configuration $(buildConfiguration)'

    - task: DotNetCoreCLI@2
      displayName: "Publish"
      inputs:
        command: 'publish'
        publishWebProjects: true
        arguments: '-r linux-x64 --configuration $(BuildConfiguration) --output $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)'
        zipAfterPublish: true

    - task: PublishBuildArtifacts@1
      displayName: "Upload Artifacts"
      inputs:
        pathtoPublish: '$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)' 
        artifactName: 'WebApp'
