title: Publishing error: dotnet.exe failed
body: <p>I was gifted a .net core 1.0 app when the original author quit. It was written back in rc1-rc2... We have since updated the project to use the latest core 1.0.0 and it compiles and runs locally on my dev machine (win 7) but when publishing, in any manner, I cannot get it to stand up. </p>
  
  <p>I tried pub to local directory and copy it over, tried publish via 'web deploy', only ever get:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>OOPS! 500 error. An error occurred while starting the application.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>ALSO, 
  Every time I try to publish I get this error when viewing the 'settings' tab in the publish wizard.
  It seems to error every time it does 'Discovering Data Contexts'.</p>
  
  <p>What could be wrong? Upon build it also gives me some info: "No web.config found. Creating 'C:\Users\bdamore\AppData\Local\Temp\PublishTemp\LogManager.Web115\web.config'"... but there IS a web.config in the project... ???</p>
