The program iisexpress.exe' has exited with code 0

Question

When I try to start my newly created WebApplication I get this error:

The program '[73635] iisexpress.exe' has exited with code 0 (0x0).

I have already searched through internet and none of this solutions helped me:

• Change the port number (and virtual directory)
• Start as administrator
• Deleting the .vs folder
• Deleting the IISExpress-folder under Documents
• Use 64-bit of version of IISexpress
• Restart the computer
• Press CTRL-F5

I just want to build the page. I have done no changes to the original MVC5 website.

EDIT: I thought it was an error, but in the comment @Lex li says it is not an error. When I search through this on internet it look like many people had experienced it before.

I just created a new MVC application. Without doing any changes I try to run it with IIS Express (Google Chrome), but it just stops, without anything more. Chrome gives me this error: This site can’t be reached localhost refused to connect.. And I get no errors what so ever. It just wont start, and Visual Studio Diagnostic Tools stop running at the same time Chrome closes itself.

EDIT 2: I have been able to dig a bit more:

C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS Express>iisexpress.exe /trace:error

I have realised that IISExpress i struggeling with something. I was able to get this error, when I presset CTRL - F5: unable to launch iis express web server.

Answer 1

My problem was solved only by deleting the .vs directory.

Answer 2

For my , only worked remove the ISSExpress folder locate in c:\users"youruser"\Documents\ISSExpress

Answer 3

Closing all browser windows worked for me.

But that was after doing this first: File -> Open -> Web Site etc. as described here - I removed the website from IIS Express:

Why and how to fix? IIS Express "The specified port is in use"

not sure if I had to do both of these but it worked for me.
