Console.WriteLine does not exist

I'm following this guide to self host owin in a console application. My problem is, after creating a project and adding all the nugets, when I copy and paste the program code I get "The type or namespace name 'WriteLine' does not exist in the namespace 'Console'" Anyone knows what's causing the issue? I'm targeting framework 4.7.2.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;

namespace Console
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            using (Microsoft.Owin.Hosting.WebApp.Start<Startup1>("http://localhost:9000"))
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Press [enter] to quit...");
                Console.ReadLine();
            }
        }
    }
}

CodePudding user response:

Just change this namespace Console your app has Console namespace it shouldn't be like that

Example

namespace ChangeThisNameToAnotherOne

{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            using (Microsoft.Owin.Hosting.WebApp.Start<Startup1>("http://localhost:9000"))
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Press [enter] to quit...");
                Console.ReadLine();
            }
        }
    }
}
