Newbie - trying to publish to my spamhole

anon23486790

I have downloaded the personal website starter kit and have followed
the instructions provided by [spamspamspamspam.com][1] for "creating an asp.net 5
personal web site", but its still not working.
I think there is an error in my web.config file and below is the debug message I'm getting when I try to run the site.

Line 5:  	Sub Application_Start(ByVal sender As [Object], ByVal e As EventArgs)
Line 6:  		AddHandler SiteMap.SiteMapResolve, AddressOf Me.AppendQueryString
Line 7:  		If (Roles.RoleExists("Administrators") = False) Then
Line 8:  			Roles.CreateRole("Administrators")
Line 9:  		End If

The instructions I followed from http:/ /spamspamspamspam.com

Mod - PJH: Re-inserting URL since TL0's can't post them.
Mod - bz: Sabotaging URL because I suspect spam. Waiting and seeing...
Mod - bz: Anonymized this spammer and edited out the spammy site

Abused my ~~mod~~ TL3 powers to move it to appropriate category.

What's the actual error? All we have is a line, and seemingly an innocent one. Do you have a proper Imports statement there? Does it run on your PC?

~~There's a single equals (assignment) instead of a double equals (equality comparison). I bet that's the problem.~~

~~@Alexia_Pamelov, have you tried If (Roles.RoleExists("Administrators") == False) Then~~
Nevermind, this appears to be VB.

Wrong bet, welcome to VB. = means both here.

WRONG!
That is VB.NET. It doesn't have "==".

Oh, this is VB codebehind? That'd be a good thing to note in the OP. Withdrawn then.

It'd be good to know what exception is being thrown… if one is being thrown, that is…
