Question

User-248155896 posted

Hi .net security experts,
I previously used the Web Site Administration Tool. Migrated to VS2015 and it isnt there anymore.
This post http://forums.asp.net/t/2071813.aspx?Web+Site+Administration+Tool+equivalent+for+vs2015+ led
me to the Thinkecture Identity Manager but its written in C# and my solution is VB.
What do I do now?

Bye

IdentityManager is available via NuGet as a .NET assembly. It doesn't matter what language you use to consume it.

Hi metallonorg,

The option to select “ASP.Net Web Configuration Manager” is no longer in Visual Studio 2013. This is due to the removal of the Visual Studio Development Server (or Cassini) from the product. However, you could refer to the below steps by which you can still run the manager. Note that these instructions only work for sites running on the .NET Framework 4.0 and above.
