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

Have a look for the Startup.cs file, you might be missing one of these. This file is the entry point for OWIN, so it sounds like this is missing. Take a look at OWIN Startup class here to understand whats going on.

As your error specifies, you can disable this in the web.config by doing the following...

To disable OWIN startup discovery, add the appSetting owin:AutomaticAppStartup with a value of "false" in your web.config
