Web site throws exception in Startup.cs when run locally

[robcamer]

On this page, "Looking at the code", the steps fail. The web site throws an exception i think because it is trying to load kubernetes configuration. I set the environment variable at the command-line: ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT=Development but it did not help.

STEPS:

1. Clone the repo
2. Open the project in Visual Studio Code and navigate to /Source/docker-compose.override.yml file in the Explorer window then right click and select 'Open in Terminal'
3. In the terminal run the command docker-compose build
4. In the terminal run the command docker-compose up

EXPECTED:
Web site loads along with API servers

ACTUAL:
Web site throws an exception per below output.

Hi Rob

Apologies for the issues you having there, I'm currently in the process of re-writing this workshop, and the docs are not fully up to date. I will update the docs to inform people of this.
