Internal Server Error when hosting ASP.NET Core on IIS

[saf-itpro]

Deployed ASP.NET MVC Core 1.1.1 on Windows 2012 Server R2. Followed this ASP.NET article (installed DotNetCore.1.0.5_1.1.2-WindowsHosting bundle etc). App runs fine as localhost on the server if we follow the following steps:

1. In cmd from root dir of the app, ran: dotnet MyWebapplication.dll
2. Noticed that application is running and waiting for responses on localhost:5000.
3. Opened the browser on the host server and navigated to: http://localhost:5000
4. Home page opened as expected
   But when we navigate to the http://IP Address/MyWebapplication on a different desktop on the same network, we get the 500 - Internal Server Error

NOTE: We tested that if we host a simple web app (not ASP.NET Core) with just one Index.html page on IIS, we can access the app from another machine on the same network via, say, http://IP Address/MySimpleHtmlApp. So issue seems to be related to something on ASP.NET Core deployment on IIS. Question: What we may be missing and how to resolve it?

Resolved. The issue was that although I had installed DotNetCore.1.0.5_1.1.2-WindowsHosting bundle but the ASPNETCore was not showing up in IIS->Modules. So, I uninstalled the bundle and the restarted the machine, installed the bundle again, restarted the machine (as precaution).
