Running self-hosted OWIN Web API under non-admin account

by

It looks like the problem was with the URL reservation. I didn’t need one. If there is a URL reservation, it will just prevent the owin host from starting with the access denied error. Also, the default port for owin host is 5000. If there is a “dead” process that is still running on that port, it will block your service from starting. To check you can run netstat -a -b at the command prompt.
