Compiler Errors after updating Microsoft.Aspnet.Id

Question

Using the Vs2013 preview, i created a c# webapp selecting MVC and WebAPI from the dialog. It compiled ok. If i update the references from the nuget package manager to the beta2 versions (include Prerelease), it then fails to compile. I get 21 errors, located in the AccountController.cs and the IdentityConfig.cs. I tried updateing to the latest nightly libraries which gave the same errors. Appreciate preview code is just that so start again from the template. Was wondering if anyone knew which reference i could avoid updating.

UPDATE If i start from scratch with the same template, and update just the MVC and the WEBAPI libraries to 5.0.0-beta2 (or 3.0.3-beta2 in the case of Razor). then my application still compiles. The updates which i havent applied are those which are all stamped with 1.1.0-beta2 and are named starting Microsoft.Owin.Security

UPDATE2 if i then add all the Owin security references it still compiles. Leaving two libraries

• Microsoft.Aspnet.Identity.Core which is currently 1.0.0-Alpha1 (update is 1.0.0-Beta1)
• Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.EntityFramework which is currently 1.0.0-Alpha1 (update 1.0.0-beta1).

If i update the first library i get the above bold error, if i then update the second i get all the other errors.

So appears these updates aren't compatible with the other beta updates.

Answer 1

Think i have finally found the resource which answers this. There is an asp.net/vs2013 refresh which updates the templates to the beta preview of Identity and removes the breaking changes
