  1. Solution Most common reasons a Blazor Server app’s buttons/links don’t respond after deployment are that the interactive circuit can’t start. Verify these deployment items in order:
  • Ensure WebSockets are enabled on the host

    • Blazor Server requires a SignalR connection (WebSockets preferred; falls back to SSE/LongPolling). If WebSockets are disabled, UI won’t become interactive and clicks won’t work.
    • IIS: Enable the WebSocket Protocol feature for the site/app pool. Azure App Service: turn WebSockets On in Configuration > General settings.
    • After enabling, restart the app.
  • Confirm SignalR traffic is not blocked by proxy/load balancer

    • If you’re behind a reverse proxy, configure ForwardedHeaders to preserve scheme/host so SignalR endpoints and cookies work correctly.
    • In your web app, add ForwardedHeaders middleware per ASP.NET Core guidance when deploying behind proxies.
  • Check that the blazor.server.js and static assets are being served

    • Open browser dev tools > Network tab and look for:
      • _framework/blazor.server.js
      • _blazor (SignalR connect)
    • If these fail, clicks won’t work. Ensure Static Files are enabled and not blocked by web.config or proxy.
  • Verify the app is truly Blazor Server (not Blazor Web App misconfigured)

    • For ABP 10.0.0 and Blazor Server, render mode should be InteractiveServer (default for Server template). If you migrated to .NET 8 Blazor Web App, ensure Interactive modes are properly configured and antiforgery is enabled; otherwise no interactivity.
  • If hosted as a sub-application (virtual directory), set the base href

    • When running under a sub-path, wrong base href breaks navigation and asset loading (and thus interactivity).
    • For Blazor, set the base tag in App.razor appropriately (e.g., <base href="/myapp/">) if deployed under a sub-path.
  • IIS-specific quick checklist

    • Enable WebSocket Protocol feature.
    • Remove/disable WebDAV module/handler if it interferes.
    • Ensure Compression/ARR isn’t blocking WebSocket upgrade. If necessary, exclude the _blazor path from compression.
  • Azure App Service quick checklist

    • Turn WebSockets On.
    • If using ARR/Proxies, ensure sticky sessions are enabled or configure SignalR Service if scaling out.
    • Verify no forced HTTP/HTTPS scheme mismatch (use forwarded headers config when behind front-ends).

If you can’t click the Login button on your public site specifically:

  • Open dev tools Console and Network, reload the page, and verify that:
    • _framework/blazor.server.js returns 200.
    • _blazor?negotiate returns 200 and then a WebSocket (101 Switching Protocols) or SSE/long-polling connection is established.
  • If negotiate/connection fails, fix WebSockets/proxy as above. This is the root cause in most reported cases.

Code snippets (only if you are behind a proxy/load balancer):

  • Add forwarded headers
public override void OnApplicationInitialization(ApplicationInitializationContext context)
  {
      var app = context.GetApplicationBuilder();
      // ...
      app.UseForwardedHeaders(new ForwardedHeadersOptions
      {
          ForwardedHeaders = Microsoft.AspNetCore.HttpOverrides.ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedFor
                           | Microsoft.AspNetCore.HttpOverrides.ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedProto
                           | Microsoft.AspNetCore.HttpOverrides.ForwardedHeaders.XForwardedHost
      });
      // ...
      app.UseConfiguredEndpoints();
  }

  1. Solution Thanks. If there are no exceptions, this usually means:
  • The app is using NullEmailSender (so emails are “sent” to logs, not to SMTP).
  • Templates are not found in the deployed environment because they are read from the physical filesystem instead of ABP’s Virtual File System (VFS).
  • SMTP settings are missing/incorrect in production.

Please try these definitive checks/fixes:

A) Ensure real email sender is used in production

  • In your module, keep NullEmailSender only for DEBUG:
public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
#if DEBUG
    context.Services.Replace(ServiceDescriptor.Singleton<IEmailSender, NullEmailSender>());
#endif
}
  • On the server, verify SMTP settings exist (DB Settings or appsettings): Settings required:
  • Abp.Mailing.Smtp.Host
  • Abp.Mailing.Smtp.Port
  • Abp.Mailing.Smtp.UserName
  • Abp.Mailing.Smtp.Password
  • Abp.Mailing.Smtp.EnableSsl
  • Abp.Mailing.Smtp.UseDefaultCredentials
  • Abp.Mailing.DefaultFromAddress
  • Abp.Mailing.DefaultFromDisplayName

B) Prefer MailKit in production

  • Add Volo.Abp.MailKit and depend on AbpMailKitModule for a modern SMTP client.

C) Stop using File.ReadAllTextAsync for templates in production

  • Embed your .tpl files and use ABP text templating + VFS, so they are accessible after publish:
  1. Mark your templates as Embedded Resource (e.g., Emailing/Templates/UserCreation.tpl).
  2. Register the embedded set:
Configure<AbpVirtualFileSystemOptions>(options =>
{
    options.FileSets.AddEmbedded<YourProjectDomainModule>();
});
  1. Define templates:
public static class MyEmailTemplates
{
    public const string UserCreation = "MyEmailTemplates.UserCreation";
    public const string ChangePassword = "MyEmailTemplates.ChangePassword";
}

public class EmailTemplateDefinitionProvider : TemplateDefinitionProvider
{
    public override void Define(ITemplateDefinitionContext context)
    {
        context.Add(new TemplateDefinition(MyEmailTemplates.UserCreation)
            .WithVirtualFilePath("/Emailing/Templates/UserCreation.tpl", isInlineLocalized: true));
        context.Add(new TemplateDefinition(MyEmailTemplates.ChangePassword)
            .WithVirtualFilePath("/Emailing/Templates/ChangePassword.tpl", isInlineLocalized: true));
    }
}
  1. Render via ITemplateRenderer (Scriban):
private async Task<string> RenderEmailBodyAsync(string templateName, object model)
{
    var key = templateName.Equals("UserCreation.tpl", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase)
        ? MyEmailTemplates.UserCreation
        : MyEmailTemplates.ChangePassword;

    return await _templateRenderer.RenderAsync(key, model);
}
  • Replace your LoadTemplate usage with RenderEmailBodyAsync, and structure your .tpl with Scriban placeholders like {{ model.Name }}, {{ model.Url }}, etc.

D) If you want to keep manual replacements

  • Still use VFS to read:
private readonly IVirtualFileProvider _vfs;
public SendGridEmailNotificationAppServiceBase(..., IVirtualFileProvider vfs, ...)
{
    _vfs = vfs;
}

private async Task<string> LoadTemplateFromVfsAsync(string virtualPath)
{
    var fi = _vfs.GetFileInfo(virtualPath);
    if (!fi.Exists) throw new FileNotFoundException($"Template not found: {virtualPath}");
    using var s = fi.CreateReadStream();
    using var r = new StreamReader(s);
    return await r.ReadToEndAsync();
}
  • And call LoadTemplateFromVfsAsync("/Emailing/Templates/UserCreation.tpl").

E) Verify environment URLs

  • Ensure App:SelfUrl (and any Angular/Client URL you use) is set correctly in production config; otherwise links in mails may be broken.

F) Quick diagnostic to confirm mail path

  • Temporarily send a simple plain text email without templating:
await _emailSender.SendAsync("you@domain.com", "Test", "Hello", false);

If this arrives, the SMTP configuration is correct and the problem is template loading; move to using VFS/ITemplateRenderer as above.

If you still want to share logs, please look specifically for:

  • “NullEmailSender” messages (indicates debug sender is active).
  • “Template not found” or path errors.
  • Smtp/MailKit connection errors (host/port/ssl/creds).

  1. Solution You’re on the right path by moving to a Commercial-based solution. For the Elsa Workflow (Pro) “empty migration” issue, use this checklist to generate actual EF Core migrations for Elsa tables and avoid empty/duplicate migrations:

A) Install and reference the correct Elsa (Pro) integration

  • Use the ABP Elsa Pro integration modules (they mainly wire auth/permissions). You still need to register Elsa’s EF Core persistence (Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.SqlServer) so migrations have real model changes to detect.

In your Host module (the service where Elsa will run):

[DependsOn(
    typeof(Volo.Elsa.Abp.AspNetCore.AbpElsaAspNetCoreModule),
    typeof(Volo.Elsa.Abp.Identity.AbpElsaIdentityModule),
    typeof(Volo.Elsa.Abp.Application.AbpElsaApplicationModule),
    typeof(Volo.Elsa.Abp.Application.Contracts.AbpElsaApplicationContractsModule)
)]
public class MyProjectHttpApiHostModule : AbpModule
{
    public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
    {
        var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();
        var elsaSection = configuration.GetSection("Elsa");

        context.Services.AddElsa(elsa => elsa
            .UseEntityFrameworkPersistence(ef =>
                DbContextOptionsBuilderExtensions.UseSqlServer(
                    ef, configuration.GetConnectionString("Default")))
            .AddHttpActivities(elsaSection.GetSection("Server").Bind)
            .AddQuartzTemporalActivities()
            .AddJavaScriptActivities()
            .AddWorkflowsFrom<Startup>() // optional
        );

        context.Services.AddElsaApiEndpoints();

        Configure<AbpAntiForgeryOptions>(options =>
        {
            options.AutoValidateFilter = type =>
                type.Assembly != typeof(Elsa.Server.Api.Endpoints.WorkflowRegistry.Get).Assembly;
        });

        context.Services.AddCors(cors => cors.AddDefaultPolicy(builder =>
            builder.AllowAnyHeader().AllowAnyMethod().AllowAnyOrigin()
                   .WithExposedHeaders("Content-Disposition")));
    }

    public override void OnApplicationInitialization(ApplicationInitializationContext context)
    {
        var app = context.GetApplicationBuilder();
        app.UseCors();
        app.UseHttpActivities();
        app.UseConfiguredEndpoints();
    }
}

Add to appsettings.json:

{
  "ConnectionStrings": {
    "Default": "Server=...;Database=...;Trusted_Connection=False;User Id=...;Password=...;"
  },
  "Elsa": {
    "Http": {
      "BaseUrl": "https://localhost:5001"
    }
  }
}

B) Ensure you are creating migrations from the project that contains Elsa’s DbContext

  • Elsa’s EF entities are registered by AddElsa(). You should add migrations from the host project that references Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.SqlServer and where UseEntityFrameworkPersistence is configured.
  • From that project folder, run:
    • dotnet tool restore (if needed)
    • dotnet ef migrations add AddElsaTables -c ElsaContext -o Migrations/Elsa
    • dotnet ef database update If you still get an empty migration:
  • Clean bin/obj, ensure the project builds, then re-run the migrations command.
  • Confirm your host project targets the same TFM as EF tools (e.g., net8.0) and that the Default connection string is valid.

C) If you use microservices or an external Auth Server, wire identity consistently

  • When Elsa Pro is used with ABP Identity/OpenIddict, missing identity integration may block initialization paths. In microservices setups, configure UseAbpIdentity in the Identity service when using Elsa’s integration for authentication, as reported by other users. This resolved a similar “not progressing” setup where migrations appeared empty until the integration was correct.

D) Use DbMigrator vs package manager console

  • For ABP, Update-Database in PMC only applies schema. Seeding (and some initializations) are performed by the DbMigrator executable. After generating migrations for Elsa, prefer to run your solution’s DbMigrator (or the host app once) to apply schema and seed. If you don’t have a DbMigrator that runs Elsa, you can still use dotnet ef database update for schema but handle seeding via Elsa or a custom seed.

E) Verify with the official sample

  • Compare your setup against the Elsa Workflows sample. Ensure:
    • Elsa.UseEntityFrameworkPersistence is configured against your Default connection.
    • The host where you run migrations references Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.SqlServer.
    • The app runs and exposes Elsa endpoints without antiforgery issues and with CORS if Studio is separate.

Quick troubleshooting summary for “empty migration”:

  • Wrong project targeted for migrations → run from the host project that registers Elsa EF persistence.
  • Missing Elsa.Persistence.EntityFramework.SqlServer reference in the host project → add it.
  • Build artifacts cached → delete bin/obj, rebuild, retry.
  • Tooling mismatch (TFM) → ensure EF tools target matches project TFM.
  • Identity integration blocking execution in microservices → configure UseAbpIdentity in Identity microservice (if applicable), then proceed.

  1. Solution Short answer: No, your template doesn’t “force” Redis or distributed locking. The crash still happens because the BackgroundJobs module is being initialized and tries to resolve the distributed lock provider before your IsJobExecutionEnabled=false takes effect, or another module registers/uses a Redis-based IDistributedLockProvider early. Fix with one of these verified approaches:

A) Make sure job execution is disabled at ConfigureServices (module-level), not only via appsettings

  • In your Web/Blazor module (and any module that hosts the app), configure options in ConfigureServices so it’s applied before workers are created: [DependsOn(typeof(AbpBackgroundJobsModule))] public class YourWebModule : AbpModule { public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context) { Configure<AbpBackgroundJobOptions>(options => { options.IsJobExecutionEnabled = false; }); } }
  • Keep the appsettings flag if you want, but the module configuration above ensures it is applied during service registration, preventing BackgroundJobWorker from starting.

B) Remove/avoid Redis distributed lock provider registration in environments where Redis isn’t available

  • If you added a custom IDistributedLockProvider registration (Medallion Redis) anywhere (e.g., your HttpApi.Host, Web, or a shared infrastructure module), guard it with environment checks so it’s not registered locally: public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context) { var env = context.Services.GetHostingEnvironment(); var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();

    if (!env.IsDevelopment() || !string.IsNullOrEmpty(configuration["Redis:Configuration"]))
    {
        context.Services.AddSingleton&lt;IDistributedLockProvider&gt;(sp =>
        {
            var conn = ConnectionMultiplexer.Connect(configuration["Redis:Configuration"]);
            return new RedisDistributedSynchronizationProvider(conn.GetDatabase());
        });
    }
    

    }

  • If you don’t explicitly register a Redis provider, ABP will fall back to its default in-memory lock (sufficient for single-instance dev and won’t try to connect to Redis).

C) If you do want Redis but want startup to continue when Redis is temporarily down

  • Use abortConnect=false (AbortOnConnectFail=false) in your Redis connection string so StackExchange.Redis keeps retrying instead of throwing during startup: "Redis": { "Configuration": "host:port,password=...,abortConnect=false" }

D) If another module depends on AbpBackgroundJobs and starts workers

  • Ensure that module does NOT register a Redis IDistributedLockProvider unconditionally. Either remove that registration from the module, or make it conditional (as shown in B). Modules should generally depend on AbpBackgroundJobs.Abstractions and let the application decide the concrete implementation.

Why your “Option B” might not have worked

  • Setting IsJobExecutionEnabled=false via appsettings alone can be too late if a custom Redis IDistributedLockProvider is registered and resolved during container build or very early initialization.
  • Ensuring the options are set in ConfigureServices and removing unconditional Redis lock registration guarantees the BackgroundJobWorker isn’t constructed and no Redis connection is attempted.

Minimal checklist

  • Add Configure<AbpBackgroundJobOptions>(o => o.IsJobExecutionEnabled = false) in your main module’s ConfigureServices.
  • Search for any IDistributedLockProvider or ConnectionMultiplexer.Connect(...) in your solution; make it conditional or remove for local runs.
  • If keeping Redis: include abortConnect=false and verify the endpoint/networking.

  1. Solution Your application uses ABP’s distributed locking (Medallion) via the BackgroundJobs module. By default, ABP expects a working IDistributedLockProvider; if Redis is selected/available but not reachable, startup fails with the shown StackExchange.Redis RedisConnectionException.

Fix options (choose one):

A) Configure Redis distributed lock provider correctly

  • Add Medallion Redis provider registration and valid Redis connection string.

  • appsettings.json: { "Redis": { "Configuration": "127.0.0.1:6379" // change to your host:port or connection string } }

  • Module configuration: using Medallion.Threading; using Medallion.Threading.Redis; using StackExchange.Redis;

    [DependsOn(typeof(AbpDistributedLockingModule))] public class YourModule : AbpModule { public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context) { var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration(); context.Services.AddSingleton<IDistributedLockProvider>(sp => { var conn = ConnectionMultiplexer.Connect(configuration["Redis:Configuration"]); return new RedisDistributedSynchronizationProvider(conn.GetDatabase()); }); } }

  • Ensure your Redis server is running and reachable from the app container/host. If your Redis requires password or user, use a full StackExchange.Redis connection string, e.g. host:port,password=yourpw,abortConnect=false. The abortConnect=false (or AbortOnConnectFail=false) allows the multiplexer to keep retrying during transient startup.

B) Disable background jobs (removes need for distributed lock at startup)

  • appsettings.json: { "AbpBackgroundJobs": { "IsJobExecutionEnabled": false } } This prevents the BackgroundJobWorker from starting and avoids creating the Medallion lock provider on startup.

C) Use a different lock provider (e.g., database) or defer lock provider registration in environments without Redis If you can’t run Redis in dev/staging, either:

  • Register an alternative provider (e.g., an in-memory single-instance provider for development), or
  • Conditionally register the Redis provider only for environments where Redis is available.

Quick checklist

  • Verify the Redis endpoint and port are correct and accessible from the app.
  • If running in Docker/Kubernetes, ensure networking and service DNS resolve to the correct Redis service.
  • If using Redis with authentication, include the password (and user if needed) in the connection string.
  • Consider adding abortConnect=false to allow retries: "Redis": { "Configuration": "host:port,password=...,abortConnect=false" }

  1. Solution
  • Current status

    • ABP provides a Pro Elsa integration module (ABP Team license or higher). The module integrates authentication/permissions and basic wiring, but documentation explicitly states it is not yet fully integrated because Elsa has its own DB and Identity/Tenant systems under active development. Several ABP Elsa sub-modules are placeholders to be implemented as Elsa evolves.
    • Per-tenant workflows: There is no official statement in ABP docs that per-tenant workflow isolation/management is delivered as a turnkey ABP feature today. You can still run Elsa in a multi-tenant ABP app by isolating workflows via Elsa’s own persistence and scoping, but a fully unified ABP multi-tenancy model for Elsa is not documented as complete.
  • Roadmap

    • The ABP Platform Road Map is the only authoritative, public plan. It does not publish a specific milestone/date for “Elsa full integration” or “per-tenant workflows in ABP Elsa module.” Therefore, there is no public, dated roadmap item for those features at this time. Track the platform roadmap and release notes for updates.
  • What you can do today (ABP 10.0, Blazor Web App)

    • Use ABP Elsa Module (Pro) to integrate with ABP auth and permissions, and host Elsa Studio separately. Follow the Elsa sample to see a working reference.
    • For per-tenant needs:
      • Keep your app multi-tenant with ABP (SaaS/MultiTenancy enabled).
      • Configure Elsa persistence to store workflow definitions/instances per tenant (e.g., separate schemas/DBs or tenant-discriminators in Elsa’s EF persistence).
      • Use ABP’s ICurrentTenant to pass current tenant context into activities/input/output or to resolve tenant-specific configuration (connection strings, endpoints).
      • Expose Elsa endpoints through your gateway and secure them with ABP permissions; ensure tenant context is required to access/operate on workflows.
    • For layered WebApp documentation: Use the Elsa Pro module page plus the Elsa sample (it shows solution layout, hosting Elsa server + Studio). For general layered web app setup, follow the “Get Started with ABP: Layered Web Application” guide, then add Elsa as shown in the sample.

  1. Solution
  • In ABP Studio/ABP v10, the “Application Module” template no longer includes a Host application by default. A module solution only contains src and test folders. This is by design for reusable modules.
  • To run/debug your module like before, create or use a Host application and install/import your module into it.

Do one of the following: A) Create a Host app and import your module

  1. In ABP Studio: File -> New Solution -> choose Layered Web Application (e.g., Blazor Server).
  2. Open Solution Explorer -> right-click the Host app solution -> Imports -> Add -> select your module package (the module solution you created).
  3. ABP Studio will add project/package references. Run the Host from Solution Runner or open the Host’s .sln in Visual Studio and start e.g. Blazor.Server.Host.

B) Start from an Empty solution, add a module, then add a Host app

  1. File -> New Solution -> Empty solution.
  2. Right-click the solution -> Add -> Application Module (creates src/test only).
  3. Right-click the solution -> Add -> Application (Single-layer or Layered, Blazor Server UI as needed).
  4. In the Host app, reference your module (via Imports or by adding the module projects to the Host and adding references), then run the Host.

Notes:

  • The old ABP Suite “Create module with host/src/test” option was replaced in ABP Studio with a cleaner separation: modules are reusable; hosts are separate apps.
  • For Angular modules, the template also provides an angular/dev-app for quick UI development; for Blazor, create a Host app as above.

  1. Solution The error comes from the OpenIddict data seeder in Microservicev10.IdentityService: “CS0103: The name ‘_configuration’ does not exist in the current context”. In ABP v10 microservice templates, OpenIddict seeding in the IdentityService HttpApi.Host project reads settings from IConfiguration via DI; if you moved/added a seeder class or created a new service and copied code, you likely lost the injected IConfiguration field.

Fix it by injecting IConfiguration (or using GetRequiredService<IConfiguration> from the service provider) and using it where _configuration is referenced.

Option A: Constructor inject IConfiguration in the seeder

  • File: services/identity/Microservicev10.IdentityService/Microservicev10.IdentityService.csproj project, inside Data/OpenIddict/OpenIddictDataSeeder.cs (or DataSeeder.cs where the error points)
  • Replace your class header with DI for IConfiguration and assign to a private field.

Example:

using Microsoft.Extensions.Configuration;
using Volo.Abp.DependencyInjection;
using Volo.Abp.Data;

namespace Microservicev10.IdentityService.Data.OpenIddict;

public class OpenIddictDataSeeder : IDataSeedContributor, ITransientDependency
{
    private readonly IConfiguration _configuration;
    // other injections...

    public OpenIddictDataSeeder(
        IConfiguration configuration
        /* other dependencies */
    )
    {
        _configuration = configuration;
        // assign others...
    }

    public async Task SeedAsync(DataSeedContext context)
    {
        // Use _configuration["OpenIddict:Applications:MyClient:RootUrl"] etc.
        // Your existing seeding logic...
    }
}

Option B: Resolve IConfiguration on demand If you already have IServiceProvider injected, resolve configuration when needed:

public async Task SeedAsync(DataSeedContext context)
{
    var configuration = _serviceProvider.GetRequiredService<IConfiguration>();
    var rootUrl = configuration["OpenIddict:Applications:MyClient:RootUrl"];
    // ...
}

Common places that use _configuration in OpenIddict seeders:

  • Reading OpenIddict Applications (clients) and Scopes from appsettings.json:
    • OpenIddict:Applications:...
    • OpenIddict:Scopes:...
  • Building redirect/logout URLs with RootUrl values.

Also ensure the seeder runs:

  • IdentityService.HttpApi.Host typically triggers OpenIddict seeding in its DbMigrations/OpenIddictDataSeeder during migration or host initialization. If you created a new microservice and added an OpenIddict seeder into the service project (not DbMigrator or IdentityService.HttpApi.Host DbMigrations), make sure it implements IDataSeedContributor and the host calls IDataSeeder.SeedAsync on startup or you run DbMigrator.

    • Keep a single Public Website (MVC) application and make it multi-tenant aware. Serve tenant-specific CMS content by resolving the current tenant per request (no login required for viewing public content).
    • Use ABP’s tenant resolution to select the tenant by domain/subdomain or a route/query parameter:
      • Preferred: Map each tenant to its own domain or subdomain (e.g., tenant1.example.com, tenant2.example.com). This lets the same public site serve different content based on the resolved tenant.
      • Alternative: Use query string or a path segment for tenant resolution in development or if domains are not available.
    • CMS Kit Pro data is tenant-isolated (standard ABP multi-tenancy). Each tenant manages its own Pages, Blogs, Menus, etc., and the public endpoints read from the current tenant’s database/context.
  • Steps

    1. Enable CMS Kit Pro and features
      • Ensure CMS Kit Pro is installed with the Public Website option and enable the features you need using Global Features in your Domain.Shared project:
GlobalFeatureManager.Instance.Modules.CmsKit(cmsKit =>
       {
           cmsKit.EnableAll(); // or enable specific CmsKit features
       });

       GlobalFeatureManager.Instance.Modules.CmsKitPro(cmsKitPro =>
       {
           cmsKitPro.EnableAll(); // or enable specific Pro features like Newsletter, Contact Form, URL Forwarding, Poll, etc.
       });
 - Add EF Core migration and update the database after enabling features.
  1. Configure tenant resolution for the Public Website

    • Configure domain/subdomain-based tenant resolution so that the current tenant is determined from host name. In your Web module, configure AbpAspNetCoreMultiTenancyOptions by adding a domain tenant mapping or by enabling the built-in DomainTenantResolveContributor. For subdomains, you typically deploy DNS and reverse proxy to forward subdomains to your public site; ABP will resolve the tenant from the host header.
    • Once configured, each request to tenant1.example.com resolves CurrentTenant = tenant1; tenant2.example.com resolves tenant2. No code changes are needed in CMS Kit controllers; they operate in the current tenant scope automatically.
  2. Anonymous/public access

    • CMS Kit’s public pages (dynamic pages under slug routes, blogs, etc.) are designed to be publicly viewable. The out-of-the-box Public Website application already exposes CMS content without requiring authentication.
    • For Newsletter (Pro), the subscribe endpoint is designed for public use. Keep it available to anonymous users so visitors can subscribe without logging in.
    • If you add any custom pages or controllers around CMS content, ensure they allow anonymous access:
[AllowAnonymous]
       public class MyPublicController : AbpController
       {
           // read-only endpoints rendering tenant-specific content
       }
  1. One public site vs per-tenant sites

    • You do not need a separate web host per tenant. A single Public Website application can serve all tenants as long as tenant resolution is configured (recommended: subdomain per tenant). This is the common/recommended pattern.
    • If you have strict branding or runtime customization that is hard to toggle per request, a per-tenant host is possible but not required in most cases.
  2. Features per tenant

    • You can enable/disable CMS Kit features per Edition/Tenant using the Feature Management UI. That lets you offer, for example, Pages and Blogs to all tenants while enabling Newsletter only for specific editions.
  • Practical notes
    • Public Website + CMS Kit Pro is already multi-tenant-ready in ABP Commercial templates. Create the solution with “Public website” option. The CMS menu (admin side) appears in the main app (Admin UI). Tenants manage their own content there; public readers consume it on the Public Website domain.
    • For domain mapping beyond basic defaults, implement or configure a Tenant Resolve Contributor that maps hostnames to tenant names if your naming doesn’t match.

  1. Solution Based on your code and the upgrade to ABP 9.3.6 (OpenIddict-based auth server), the 502 after Azure AD sign-in is typically caused by one or more of the following when running behind Azure/App Gateway/Reverse proxy or when defaults changed across versions:
  • Sign-in cookie not flowing back to ABP due to wrong scheme or SameSite
  • Missing email claim (v2.0 endpoints don’t return email by default)
  • Wrong redirect/callback URL or authority mismatch
  • OpenIdConnect cookie not being written to the correct scheme for ABP’s Account module

Apply the checklist below. It mirrors the verified ABP guidance and fixes most AAD external login issues.

A. Ensure the correct external SignIn scheme and claim mapping

  • ABP’s Account module expects external logins to sign-in using IdentityConstants.ExternalScheme and have a mapped NameIdentifier.
  • Update your OpenIdConnect registration as follows:
private void ConfigureExternalProviders(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
    var configuration = context.Services.GetConfiguration();
    context.Services.AddAuthentication()
        .AddOpenIdConnect("AzureOpenId", "Azure Active Directory OpenId", options =>
        {
            options.Authority = "https://login.microsoftonline.com/" + configuration["AzureAd:TenantId"] + "/v2.0/";
            options.ClientId = configuration["AzureAd:ClientId"];
            options.ClientSecret = configuration["AzureAd:ClientSecret"];
            options.ResponseType = OpenIdConnectResponseType.CodeIdToken; // or Code
            options.CallbackPath = configuration["AzureAd:CallbackPath"]; // e.g. /signin-azuread-oidc
            options.RequireHttpsMetadata = true; // keep true in Azure
            options.SaveTokens = true;
            options.GetClaimsFromUserInfoEndpoint = true;

            // Important for ABP external logins:
            options.SignInScheme = IdentityConstants.ExternalScheme;
            options.Scope.Add("email");
            options.ClaimActions.MapJsonKey(ClaimTypes.NameIdentifier, "sub");

            // If you need to override RedirectUri in prod (behind reverse proxy):
            if (context.Services.GetHostingEnvironment().IsProduction())
            {
                options.Events = new OpenIdConnectEvents
                {
                    OnRedirectToIdentityProvider = ctx =>
                    {
                        // Use your public https URL + CallbackPath, if Azure is terminating TLS/proxying.
                        // Example: https://your-public-domain/signin-azuread-oidc
                        ctx.ProtocolMessage.RedirectUri = configuration["AzureAd:RedirectToIdentityProviderUri"];
                        return Task.CompletedTask;
                    }
                };
            }
        });
}

B. Validate Redirect URI and CallbackPath consistency

  • The actual redirect URI used by the app must exactly match an entry in Azure AD App registrations > Authentication > Redirect URIs.
  • Effective redirect = App.SelfUrl (public base URL) + AzureAd:CallbackPath.
  • If you set RedirectToIdentityProviderUri in production, ensure that exact URL is one of the Redirect URIs in Azure AD.

C. Ensure email scope is requested

  • With AAD v2.0 endpoints, email is not guaranteed unless you request it.
  • Keep options.Scope.Add("email"); to allow ABP to auto-register external users on first login. Without email, you may get failures on user registration or be redirected unexpectedly.

D. Behind reverse proxy/Azure App Service specifics

  • RequireHttpsMetadata should be true in production.
  • Make sure your public HTTPS URL is configured in App.SelfUrl and used for redirect (or set ctx.ProtocolMessage.RedirectUri as shown).
  • If you terminate TLS at a proxy, ensure forwarded headers are correctly configured in your host so the app can build correct absolute URLs. In Program/Startup, use ForwardedHeadersOptions to enable X-Forwarded-Proto and X-Forwarded-For if applicable.

E. Cookie/SameSite considerations

  • In Azure front-ends, SameSite and secure flags matter. If you customized cookies, ensure the external auth cookie uses SameSite=None and Secure, or rely on the defaults. Avoid changing ABP cookie defaults unless necessary.

F. Quick diagnostics

  • Enable logging around the OIDC events to verify callback handling:
    • OnTokenValidated: check claims, ensure sub and email exist.
    • OnAuthenticationFailed: print exception details to logs.
  • After the POST to /signin-azuread-oidc, you should see “AuthenticationScheme: Identity.External signed in” in logs. If not, scheme is wrong or cookie not written.

G. Multi-tenant or dynamic provider settings (if applicable)

  • If you need tenant-specific AAD settings in runtime, prefer ABP’s External Login provider settings (Account Pro) instead of changing OIDC options per request. It supports per-tenant Authority/ClientId/Secret and avoids scheme reconfiguration at runtime.
