Avoid WebDeploy Locking Errors to IIS with Shadow Copy for ASP.NET Core Apps



If you're self-hosting ASP.NET Core applications on IIS and using WebDeploy to publish to the server, you've very likely run into the dreaded locked file problem on the server.

As a bonus this post also describes setting up and using Web Deploy in some detail.
