Please provide us with the following information:

This issue is for a: (mark with an x)

- [ x] bug report -> please search issues before submitting
- [ ] feature request
- [ ] documentation issue or request
- [ ] regression (a behavior that used to work and stopped in a new release)

Minimal steps to reproduce

try to run application in dotnet core environment

Any log messages given by the failure

startup configuration for application does not load in .net core environment.. can provide exact errors if you are unable to replicate. Proposed fix below anyhow.

Expected/desired behavior

successfully load configuration / appsettings

OS and Version?

Linux - Ubuntu 16.04, dotnet core 3.1

Mention any other details that might be useful

In startup.cs if you add the following logic, it will fix the issue
public Startup(IConfiguration configuration)
{
Configuration = configuration;
if(string.IsNullOrEmpty(Configuration["OrganizationName"])) OR A BETTER CHECK IF THE CONFIG LOADED OK
{
var builder = new ConfigurationBuilder()
.AddJsonFile("appsettings.json", optional: true, reloadOnChange: true)
.AddEnvironmentVariables();
Configuration = builder.Build();
}

    }

Thanks! We'll be in touch soon.
