OWIN Startup Class Missing

Question

I\'m getting this error as my project is not able to find the reference for OWIN startup class. I\'ve even installed all the OWIN reference packages through Nug

Answer 1

On Visual Studio 2013 RC2, there is a template for this. Just add it to App_Start folder.

The template produces such a class:

using System;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using Microsoft.Owin;
using Owin;

[assembly: OwinStartup(typeof(WebApiOsp.App_Start.Startup))]

namespace WebApiOsp.App_Start
{
    public class Startup
    {
        public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
        {
            // For more information on how to configure your application, visit http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=316888
        }
    }
}
