Question

I very read for this problem but i can not fixed this so i think create a new question in this site.

HttpContext.Current.GetOwinContext();

i want get GetOwinContext values with above code . above code there are in my startup.cs

[assembly: OwinStartupAttribute(typeof(OwinTest.Startup))]

public partial class Startup
{
    public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
    {
        ConfigureAuth(app);
        var c = HttpContext.Current.GetOwinContext();
    }
}

and i get this error

//No owin.Environment item was found in the context

but var c = HttpContext.Current.GetOwinContext(); work for me in HomeController fine.!

I just get GetOwinContext in my startup.cs class.

You can't do that. The OWIN context does not exist without a request, and the Startup class only runs once for the application, not for each request. Your Startup class should initialize your middleware and your application and the middleware and the application should access the OWIN context when needed.
