How to resolve error 500 on Azure web app?
- Use the KUDU console at https://sitename.scm.azurewebsites.net
- Go to web.config file and check if the process path is correct.
Try adding Application Insights to the app. You should see errors on startup of your application.
I would also take a look at your startup code to see if you are writing to disk anywhere during configuration or app.start. This might be the case if you are using AAD in any capacity.
