ASP.NET MVC 5 Web.config: “FormsAuthenticationModule” or “FormsAuthentication”

Question

Ok so this not a big deal, but it\'s bugging me and I can\'t let it go.

So I\'m using MVC 5.1 with .NET 4.5.1 and OWIN authentication. So when you create a new MVC 5

Answer 1

A major side effect of this "typo" is it will leave FormsAuthentication on causing loginpath of owin to be ignored and calls to authenticated pages going to /login.aspx

Answer 2
