There are several possible solutions for resolving the error "aspnet_compiler.exe" that has exited with code 1 during the attempt to publish a web service in Visual Studio 2019. Some of the common solutions are:
Check for syntax errors or missing references in the code and fix them.
Clean and rebuild the solution to regenerate the binaries and configuration files.
Verify that the correct version of .NET Framework is installed and selected for the project.
Reset IIS or restart the web server to ensure that all the processes are refreshed.
Disable the antivirus or firewall temporarily to see if they are blocking the compilation process.
Check the permissions of the folder or file that is causing the error and grant appropriate access rights to the user or group.
Check for any conflicting or duplicate assemblies in the project and remove them.
Try publishing the web service to a different location or server to see if the error persists.
Verify that the target framework of the project matches the version of .NET Framework installed on the target server.
Disable the option "Precompile during publishing" to skip the compilation step and publish the source code instead.
