Migrate from ASP.NET Core 3.1 to 5.0

  • Artikkeli

This article explains how to update an existing ASP.NET Core 3.1 project to ASP.NET Core 5.0. For instructions on how to migrate from ASP.NET Core 3.1 to ASP.NET Core 6.0, see Migrate from ASP.NET Core 3.1 to 6.0.

Prerequisites

Update .NET Core SDK version in global.json

If you rely upon a global.json file to target a specific .NET Core SDK version, update the version property to the .NET 5.0 SDK version that's installed. For example:

{
  "sdk": {
-    "version": "3.1.200"
+    "version": "5.0.100"
  }
}

Update the target framework

If updating a Blazor WebAssembly project, skip to the Update Blazor WebAssembly projects section. For any other ASP.NET Core project type, update the project file's Target Framework Moniker (TFM) to net5.0:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">

  <PropertyGroup>
-    <TargetFramework>netcoreapp3.1</TargetFramework>
+    <TargetFramework>net5.0</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>

</Project>

Delete bin and obj folders

You may need to delete the bin and obj folders. Run dotnet nuget locals --clear all to clear the NuGet package cache.

Changes to Blazor app routing logic in 5.0.1 and further 5.x releases up to 6.0

The computation of route precedence changed in the ASP.NET Core 5.0.1 patch release. This might affect you if you've defined catch-all routes or routes with optional parameters.

Old behavior

With the prior behavior in ASP.NET Core 5.0.0 or earlier, routes with lower precedence, such as {*slug}, are matched before routes with higher precedence, such as /customer/{id}.

New behavior

The new behavior in ASP.NET Core 5.0.1 or later more closely matches the routing behavior defined in ASP.NET Core apps, where the framework computes and establishes the route precedence for each segment first and only uses the length of the route to break ties as a secondary criteria.

Reason for change

The original behavior is considered a bug in the implementation because our goal is for the Blazor routing system to behave in the same way as the ASP.NET Core routing system for the subset of features supported by Blazor routing.

Add the PreferExactMatches attribute to the Router component in the App.razor file to opt into the correct behavior:

<Router AppAssembly="@typeof(Program).Assembly" PreferExactMatches="@true">

When PreferExactMatches is set to @true, route matching prefers exact matches over wildcards.

Important

All apps should explicitly set PreferExactMatches to @true.

The ability to set PreferExactMatches to @false or leave it unset is only provided for backward compatibility.

When .NET 6 is released, the router will always prefer exact matches, and the PreferExactMatches option won't be available.

Update Blazor WebAssembly and Blazor Server projects

The guidance in this section applies to both Blazor hosting models. Sections following this section provide additional guidance specific to hosting models and app types. Apply the guidance from all relevant sections to your app.

  1. In wwwroot/index.html of a Blazor WebAssembly app or the Pages/_Host.cshtml of a Blazor Server app, add a <link> element to the <head> element for styles. In the following <link> element href attribute values, the placeholder {ASSEMBLY NAME} is the app's assembly name.

    +<link href="{ASSEMBLY NAME}.styles.css" rel="stylesheet" />

    Standalone Blazor WebAssembly or Blazor Server example:

    +<link href="BlazorSample.styles.css" rel="stylesheet" />

    Client project of a hosted Blazor WebAssembly solution example:

    +<link href="BlazorSample.Client.styles.css" rel="stylesheet" />

  2. Include a new namespace in the app's _Imports.razor file for component virtualization, Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web.Virtualization. The following _Imports.razor files show the default namespaces in apps generated from the Blazor project templates. The placeholder {ASSEMBLY NAME} is the app's assembly name.

    Blazor WebAssembly (_Imports.razor):

    @using System.Net.Http
@using System.Net.Http.Json
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Forms
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Routing
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web.Virtualization
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Http
@using Microsoft.JSInterop
@using {ASSEMBLY NAME}
@using {ASSEMBLY NAME}.Shared

    Blazor Server (_Imports.razor):

    @using System.Net.Http
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Authorization
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Forms
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Routing
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web
@using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web.Virtualization
@using Microsoft.JSInterop
@using {ASSEMBLY NAME}
@using {ASSEMBLY NAME}.Shared

  3. In the MainLayout component (Shared/MainLayout.razor), surround the component's HTML markup with a <div> element that has a class attribute set to page:

    <div class="page">

    ...

</div>

  4. Add the following files to the Shared folder:

    MainLayout.razor.css:

    .page {
    position: relative;
    display: flex;
    flex-direction: column;
}

.main {
    flex: 1;
}

.sidebar {
    background-image: linear-gradient(180deg, rgb(5, 39, 103) 0%, #3a0647 70%);
}

.top-row {
    background-color: #f7f7f7;
    border-bottom: 1px solid #d6d5d5;
    justify-content: flex-end;
    height: 3.5rem;
    display: flex;
    align-items: center;
}

    .top-row ::deep a, .top-row .btn-link {
        white-space: nowrap;
        margin-left: 1.5rem;
    }

    .top-row a:first-child {
        overflow: hidden;
        text-overflow: ellipsis;
    }

@media (max-width: 767.98px) {
    .top-row:not(.auth) {
        display: none;
    }

    .top-row.auth {
        justify-content: space-between;
    }

    .top-row a, .top-row .btn-link {
        margin-left: 0;
    }
}

@media (min-width: 768px) {
    .page {
        flex-direction: row;
    }

    .sidebar {
        width: 250px;
        height: 100vh;
        position: sticky;
        top: 0;
    }

    .top-row {
        position: sticky;
        top: 0;
        z-index: 1;
    }

    .main > div {
        padding-left: 2rem !important;
        padding-right: 1.5rem !important;
    }
}

    NavMenu.razor.css:

    .navbar-toggler {
    background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.1);
}

.top-row {
    height: 3.5rem;
    background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.4);
}

.navbar-brand {
    font-size: 1.1rem;
}

.oi {
    width: 2rem;
    font-size: 1.1rem;
    vertical-align: text-top;
    top: -2px;
}

.nav-item {
    font-size: 0.9rem;
    padding-bottom: 0.5rem;
}

    .nav-item:first-of-type {
        padding-top: 1rem;
    }

    .nav-item:last-of-type {
        padding-bottom: 1rem;
    }

    .nav-item ::deep a {
        color: #d7d7d7;
        border-radius: 4px;
        height: 3rem;
        display: flex;
        align-items: center;
        line-height: 3rem;
    }

.nav-item ::deep a.active {
    background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.25);
    color: white;
}

.nav-item ::deep a:hover {
    background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.1);
    color: white;
}

@media (min-width: 768px) {
    .navbar-toggler {
        display: none;
    }

    .collapse {
        /* Never collapse the sidebar for wide screens */
        display: block;
    }
}

  5. The latest base wwwroot/css/app.css file of a Blazor WebAssembly app or wwwroot/css/site.css file of a Blazor Server app includes the following styles. Remove extra styles leaving the following styles and any that you've added to the app.

    The following stylesheet only includes base styles and does not include custom styles added by the developer:

    html, body {
    font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;
}

a, .btn-link {
    color: #0366d6;
}

.btn-primary {
    color: #fff;
    background-color: #1b6ec2;
    border-color: #1861ac;
}

.content {
    padding-top: 1.1rem;
}

.valid.modified:not([type=checkbox]) {
    outline: 1px solid #26b050;
}

.invalid {
    outline: 1px solid red;
}

.validation-message {
    color: red;
}

#blazor-error-ui {
    background: lightyellow;
    bottom: 0;
    box-shadow: 0 -1px 2px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2);
    display: none;
    left: 0;
    padding: 0.6rem 1.25rem 0.7rem 1.25rem;
    position: fixed;
    width: 100%;
    z-index: 1000;
}

#blazor-error-ui .dismiss {
    cursor: pointer;
    position: absolute;
    right: 0.75rem;
    top: 0.5rem;
}

    Note

    The preceding example doesn't show the @import directive for Open Iconic icons (open-iconic-bootstrap.css), provided by the Blazor project template. Open Iconic was abandoned by its maintainers.

Update Blazor WebAssembly projects

Follow the guidance in the preceding Update Blazor WebAssembly and Blazor Server projects section.

For a Blazor WebAssembly project, including the Client project of a hosted Blazor solution, apply the following changes to the project file:

  1. Update the SDK from Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web to Microsoft.NET.Sdk.BlazorWebAssembly:

    - <Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">
+ <Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.BlazorWebAssembly">

    Note

    This update only applies to standalone Blazor WebAssembly projects and the Client projects of hosted Blazor solutions.

  2. Update the following properties:

    <Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.BlazorWebAssembly">

  <PropertyGroup>
-     <TargetFramework>netstandard2.1</TargetFramework>
-     <RazorLangVersion>3.0</RazorLangVersion>
+     <TargetFramework>net5.0</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>

  3. Remove the package reference to Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Build:

    <ItemGroup>
-    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Build" Version="3.2.1" PrivateAssets="all" />

  4. Update other packages to their latest versions. The latest versions can be found at NuGet.org.

  5. In wwwroot/index.html, change the element that loads the App component to a <div> element with an id set to app:

    -<app>Loading...</app>
+<div id="app">Loading...</div>

  6. In Program.Main (Program.cs), change the reference to the <app> element to a CSS selector by adding a hash # to it:

    -builder.RootComponents.Add<App>("app");
+builder.RootComponents.Add<App>("#app");

  7. In Program.Main (Program.cs), change a default transient HttpClient registration to scoped, if present:

    -builder.Services.AddTransient(sp => new HttpClient 
-    { BaseAddress = new Uri(builder.HostEnvironment.BaseAddress) });
+builder.Services.AddScoped(sp => new HttpClient 
+    { BaseAddress = new Uri(builder.HostEnvironment.BaseAddress) });

  8. In Program.Main (Program.cs) of the Client app of hosted Blazor solutions:

    • Optionally, substitute builder.HostEnvironment.BaseAddress for string client base addresses.
    • Change any named transient client factory registrations to scoped.
    -builder.Services.AddHttpClient("{APP NAMESPACE}.ServerAPI", 
-    client => client.BaseAddress = new Uri("https://localhost:5001"))
-    .AddHttpMessageHandler<BaseAddressAuthorizationMessageHandler>();
-builder.Services.AddTransient(sp => sp.GetRequiredService<IHttpClientFactory>()
-    .CreateClient("{APP NAMESPACE}.ServerAPI"));
+builder.Services.AddHttpClient("{APP NAMESPACE}.ServerAPI", 
+    client => client.BaseAddress = new Uri(builder.HostEnvironment.BaseAddress))
+    .AddHttpMessageHandler<BaseAddressAuthorizationMessageHandler>();
+builder.Services.AddScoped(sp => sp.GetRequiredService<IHttpClientFactory>()
+    .CreateClient("{APP NAMESPACE}.ServerAPI"));

    In the preceding code, the {APP NAMESPACE} placeholder is the app's namespace.

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Web">

For more information, see:

Clean and rebuild the solution

After migrating the app or solution to .NET 5, clean and rebuild the app or solution. If package incompatibilities exist between new package references and cached packages:

  1. Clear NuGet package caches by executing the following dotnet nuget locals command in a command shell:

    dotnet nuget locals --clear all

  2. Clean and rebuild the app or solution.

Troubleshoot

Follow the Troubleshoot guidance at the end of the Blazor WebAssembly security topic that applies to your app:

Standalone Blazor WebAssembly apps:

Hosted Blazor WebAssembly apps:

Unauthorized client for Microsoft Entra ID (ME-ID)

After upgrading a Blazor WebAssembly app that uses AAD for authentication, you may receive the following error on the login callback to the app after the user signs in with AAD:

info: Microsoft.AspNetCore.Authorization.DefaultAuthorizationService[2] Authorization failed. These requirements were not met: DenyAnonymousAuthorizationRequirement: Requires an authenticated user.

Login callback error from AAD:

  • Error: unauthorized_client
  • Description: AADB2C90058: The provided application is not configured to allow public clients.

To resolve the error:

  1. In the Azure portal, access the app's manifest.
  2. Set the allowPublicClient attribute to null or true.

Update a Blazor Progressive Web Application (PWA)

Add the following item to the PWA app's project file:

<ItemGroup>
  <ServiceWorker Include="wwwroot\service-worker.js" 
    PublishedContent="wwwroot\service-worker.published.js" />
</ItemGroup>

If the project's wwwroot/index.html (Blazor WebAssembly) or Pages/_Host.cshtml (Blazor Server) contains a stylesheet <link> element for scoped.styles.css from an earlier 5.0 preview release, remove the <link> tag:

-<link href="_framework/scoped.styles.css/" rel="stylesheet" />

Update Razor class libraries (RCLs)

Migrate Razor class libraries (RCLs) to take advantage of new APIs or features that are introduced as part of ASP.NET Core 5.0.

To update a RCL that targets components:

  1. Update the following properties in the project file:

    <Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Razor">

  <PropertyGroup>
-     <TargetFramework>netstandard2.0</TargetFramework>
-     <RazorLangVersion>3.0</RazorLangVersion>
+     <TargetFramework>net5.0</TargetFramework>
  </PropertyGroup>

  2. Update other packages to their latest versions. The latest versions can be found at NuGet.org.

To update an RCL targeting MVC, update the following properties in the project file:

<Project Sdk="Microsoft.NET.Sdk.Razor">

  <PropertyGroup>
-    <TargetFramework>netcoreapp3.1</TargetFramework>
+    <TargetFramework>net5.0</TargetFramework>
    <AddRazorSupportForMvc>true</AddRazorSupportForMvc>
  </PropertyGroup>

Update package references

In the project file, update each Microsoft.AspNetCore.*, Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.*, Microsoft.Extensions.*, and System.Net.Http.Json package reference's Version attribute to 5.0.0 or later. For example:

<ItemGroup>
-    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.AspNetCore.JsonPatch" Version="3.1.6" />
-    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools" Version="3.1.6">
-    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Abstractions" Version="3.1.6" />
-    <PackageReference Include="System.Net.Http.Json" Version="3.2.1" />
+    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.AspNetCore.JsonPatch" Version="5.0.0" />
+    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.EntityFrameworkCore.Tools" Version="5.0.0">
+    <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Extensions.Caching.Abstractions" Version="5.0.0" />
+    <PackageReference Include="System.Net.Http.Json" Version="5.0.0" />
</ItemGroup>

Update Docker images

For apps using Docker, update your Dockerfile FROM statements and scripts. Use a base image that includes the ASP.NET Core 5.0 runtime. Consider the following docker pull command difference between ASP.NET Core 3.1 and 5.0:

- docker pull mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/core/aspnet:3.1
+ docker pull mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/aspnet:5.0

As part of the move to ".NET" as the product name, the Docker images moved from the mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet/core repositories to mcr.microsoft.com/dotnet. For more information, see dotnet/dotnet-docker#1939.

Model binding changes in ASP.NET Core MVC and Razor Pages

DateTime values are model bound as UTC times

In ASP.NET Core 3.1 and earlier, DateTime values were model-bound as local time, where the timezone was determined by the server. DateTime values bound from input formatting (JSON) and DateTimeOffset values were bound as UTC timezones.

In ASP.NET Core 5.0 and later, model binding consistently binds DateTime values with the UTC timezone.

To retain the previous behavior, remove the DateTimeModelBinderProvider in Startup.ConfigureServices:

services.AddControllersWithViews(options => 
    options.ModelBinderProviders.RemoveType<DateTimeModelBinderProvider>());

ComplexObjectModelBinderProvider \ ComplexObjectModelBinder replace ComplexTypeModelBinderProvider \ ComplexTypeModelBinder

To add support for model binding C# 9 record types, the ComplexTypeModelBinderProvider is:

  • Annotated as obsolete.
  • No longer registered by default.

Apps that rely on the presence of the ComplexTypeModelBinderProvider in the ModelBinderProviders collection need to reference the new binder provider:

- var complexModelBinderProvider = options.ModelBinderProviders.OfType<ComplexTypeModelBinderProvider>();
+ var complexModelBinderProvider = options.ModelBinderProviders.OfType<ComplexObjectModelBinderProvider>();

UseDatabaseErrorPage obsolete

The ASP.NET Core 3.1 templates that include an option for individual user accounts generate a call to UseDatabaseErrorPage. UseDatabaseErrorPage is now obsolete and should be replaced with a combination of AddDatabaseDeveloperPageExceptionFilter and UseMigrationsEndPoint, as shown in the following code:

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    services.AddDbContext<ApplicationDbContext>(options =>
        options.UseSqlServer(
            Configuration.GetConnectionString("DefaultConnection")));
+   services.AddDatabaseDeveloperPageExceptionFilter();
    services.AddDefaultIdentity<IdentityUser>(options => options.SignIn.RequireConfirmedAccount = true)
        .AddEntityFrameworkStores<ApplicationDbContext>();
    services.AddRazorPages();
}

public void Configure(IApplicationBuilder app, IWebHostEnvironment env)
{
    if (env.IsDevelopment())
    {
        app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
+       app.UseMigrationsEndPoint();
-       app.UseDatabaseErrorPage();
    }
    else
    {
        app.UseExceptionHandler("/Error");
        app.UseHsts();
    }

For more information, see this GitHub issue.

ASP.NET Core Module (ANCM)

If the ASP.NET Core Module (ANCM) wasn't a selected component when Visual Studio was installed or if a prior version of the ANCM was installed on the system, download the latest .NET Core Hosting Bundle Installer (direct download) and run the installer. For more information, see Hosting Bundle.

Package reference changes affecting some NuGet packages

With the migration of some Microsoft.Extensions.* NuGet packages from the dotnet/extensions repository to dotnet/runtime, as described in Migrating dotnet/extensions content to dotnet/runtime and dotnet/aspnetcore (aspnet/Announcements #411), packaging changes are being applied to some of the migrated packages. These changes often result in namespace changes for .NET API.

To research APIs further for app namespace changes when migrating to 5.0, use the .NET API browser.

Migrate Microsoft.Identity.Web

The following wiki pages explain how to migrate Microsoft.Identity.Web from ASP.NET Core 3.1 to 5.0:

The following tutorials also explain the migration:

Review breaking changes

For breaking changes from .NET Core 3.1 to .NET 5.0, see Breaking changes for migration from version 3.1 to 5.0. ASP.NET Core and Entity Framework Core are also included in the list.
