I started to learn Asp.net core 2 months ago on Visual Studio 2015. I had to install Dot Net Core Framework and updates of VS 2015 to run asp.net core application. Then i thought why not to learn ASP.Net Core with visual studio 2017. I installed the visual studio 2017 and made application in asp.net core but whenever i run it on Firefox it shows me a blank page. I changed the browser and try it on Chrome and on chrome it shows "localhost is currently unable to handle this request".

I googled and did not find any help. Then i made another project with default template of asp.net core but still the error "localhost is currently unable to handle this request" came. Then i learnt that to run core app with dotnet run. I tried and it ran. But i want to run it on IIS Express(with f5) so that i can debug my app. I made at least 10 different projects to resolve this issue and tried many things but this problem become a headache for me. The short story is that Asp.net core application is not running with VS 2017 with error " "localhost is currently unable to handle this request"."
I also re-install the VS 2017 but this did not work for me.

Any help?
