Debug Compilation Mode

Disable debug compilation mode in Umbraco to boost performance by updating JSON configuration.

Leaving debug compilation mode enabled can severely slow down a website and take up more memory on the server.

How to fix this health check

This health check can be fixed by providing configuration on the following path: Umbraco:CMS:Hosting:Debug.

This configuration can be setup in a configuration source of your choice. This guide shows how to set it up in one of the JSON file sources.

Updating the JSON configuration

The following JSON needs to be merged into one of your JSON sources. By default the following JSON sources are used: appSettings.json and appSettings.<environment>.json, e.g. appSettings.Development.json or appSettings.Production.json.

{
  "Umbraco": {
    "CMS": {
      "Hosting": {
        "Debug": <true|false>
      }
    }
  }
}

One example that can be used for production:

{
  "Umbraco": {
    "CMS": {
      "Hosting": {
        "Debug": false
      }
    }
  }
}
