Hi Team

I have similiar error

using Microsoft.Owin.Security; // Assembly i have used for my MVC web project.
private IAuthenticationManager AuthenticationManager

get
{
return HttpContext.GetOwinContext().Authentication; // Error is stating this object does not contain definition of GetOwninContext() for HttpContext
}
}
// Same below with this object below;
public async Task ExternalLoginConfirmation(ExternalLoginConfirmationViewModel model, string returnUrl)
{
if (User.Identity.IsAuthenticated)
{
return RedirectToAction("Manage");
}
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
// Get the information about the user from the external login provider
var info = await AuthenticationManager.GetExternalLoginInfoAsync();
// Error state it does not have definition for GetExternalLoginInfoAsync method
if (info == null)
{
return View("ExternalLoginFailure");
}
var user = new ApplicationUser() { UserName = model.UserName };
var result = await UserManager.CreateAsync(user);
if (result.Succeeded)
{
result = await UserManager.AddLoginAsync(user.Id, info.Login);

It was missing the following namespace to be reinstalled

Install-Package Microsoft.AspNet.Identity.Owin

I think in HttpContext it doesn't contain any methods GetOwinContext.
In the HttpContext press F12 and you can see whether it containsGetOwinContext method or not.
thanks.
