Dev config: Windows 10 Pro 1903; Visual Studio 2019
Azure VM: Windows Server 2019; IIS enabled
I'm trying to deploy an existing .NET Core 2.1 Web App to an Azure VM. IIS is working as I can go to the default IIS page via IP address or the Azure DNS. When I try to deploy from VS from Azure Virtual Machines profile I get 'Could not reach the Web Deploy endpoint on the specified virtual machine'. I've gone thru https://github.com/aspnet/Tooling/blob/AspNetVMs/docs/create-asp-net-vm-with-webdeploy.md to set up web deploy.
On the Azure VM,
The VS publish dialog finds my Azure VM but when I click ok I get this error.
Found the problem. In the Azure Portal -> VM -> Network I had the source port set to 8172 instead of *.

Thanks for sharing.
In my case, it didn´t work at first because I hadn´t started the Web Management Service. After setting to automatically start and start it, it did.
