Angular, ASP.NET CORE, SQL SERVER, API and DB hosted on Azure 500 error

Question

Hi,

I have my ASP.NET CORE hosted on Azure, the SQLServer DB is also hosted on Azure. Before deploying the Angular front end I decided to test it to see if it would hit the deployed backend and database. I was getting a CORS error but, now that I have resolved that I am getting a 500 error.

Where can I check in Azure to see what the 500 error means?

I am thinking that it might have something to do with the following?

When I published the API using Visual Studio it showed at the bottom that I had 2 dependencies from the code I deployed:

I was able to connect the Azure SQL Database but I can't figure out how to connect to the Microsoft Identity platform. When I click the more ... button to the left it just gives the option to connect but when I click on that it does nothing.

Is there something I need to set up on Azure to configure Identity. I already shared the connection string for the web API with the database.

Here are the web and app log streams:

IIS was not able to access the web.config file for the Web site or application. This can occur if the NTFS permissions are set incorrectly.</li> <li>IIS was not able to process configuration for the Web site or application.</li> <li>The authenticated user does not have permission to use this DLL.</li> <li>The request is mapped to a managed handler but the .NET Extensibility Feature is not installed.

The identity platform configuration is done in entra id where you configure the application. The assumption is you are using msal for angular.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/entra/identity-platform/quickstart-single-page-app-sign-in?pivots=workforce&tabs=angular-workforce%2Cjavascript-external#add-a-platform-redirect-uri

Your 500 error is the application crashing. You appear to be using windows and IIS so the web.config should be configuring the asp.net core hosting module.
