I am using IdentityServer4 with React start project from ASP.NET Core 3.0. preview 4 and it works perfectly until I build the solution and try to run it from cmd prompt using the dotnet command. Everytime I start the application, it tells me that the key type is not specified.
I have tried various guides on generating certificates because I do not have any experience with certificates in .NET. I am mentioning this in case that the issue could be caused by an incorrect way of generating a certificate.
I have also tried to add the key type to the Appsettings.json, but I do not know what the type could be. I have been Google'ing all day for documentation on how to configure IdentityServer4 for deployment, but nobody seems to be having this issue or need any help generating the correct certificate.
I can run the application in Visual Studio, as long as I specify that it's a development environment.
When I switch to production or build the solution and run it from command prompt, the following stacktrace occurs:
info: Microsoft.AspNetCore.DataProtection.KeyManagement.XmlKeyManager[0]

If anybody can save me from this situation, I would be very grateful.
