Using a Procfile to configure your .NET Core on Linux environment

To run multiple applications on the same web server, you must include a Procfile in your source bundle that tells Elastic Beanstalk which applications to run.

We recommend that you always provide a Procfile in the source bundle with your application. This way you precisely control which processes Elastic Beanstalk runs for your application and which arguments these processes receive.

The following example uses a Procfile to specify two applications for Elastic Beanstalk to run on the same web server.

Example Procfile

web: dotnet ./dotnet-core-app1/dotnetcoreapp1.dll
web2: dotnet ./dotnet-core-app2/dotnetcoreapp2.dll
