Answer: This error is most likely to happen when you have another application listening on the same port. Another theory is that you are trying to use the Console Application as a web application that requires a Home or Index Razor File. If you are trying to make a Console Application do an ETL like Job Scheduler then you should look into creating an API and then just call the URL endpoint.
