Why does not the Application_Start() event fire when I debug my ASP.NET MVC app?

Question

I currently have the following routines in my Global.asax.cs file:

public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
    routes.IgnoreRout         


        

Answer 1

In my case was I using

Local IIS Web server in web project settings

and I change to Use Visual Studio Development Server, and this works.
