The Role Manager feature has not been enabled

Question

Got the following ProviderException :

The Role Manager feature has not been enabled.

So far so good.

Is there somewher

Answer 1

If you got here because you're using the new ASP.NET Identity UserManager, what you're actually looking for is the RoleManager:

var roleManager = new RoleManager(new RoleStore(new ApplicationDbContext()));

roleManager will give you access to see if the role exists, create, etc, plus it is created for the UserManager
