In my old MVC 4 website, I've used all type of letters (also non hex) in the machineKey validationKey in web.config - it worked fine.But now I've upgraded the website to MVC 5 and it now fails with invalid non hex values.Can I tell MVC 5 to use all type of chars?Why didn't my old site fail?If I generate a new machineKey validationKey with hex values, I guess that all passwords will be invalid.Any idea what to do?
Web.config: invalid machineKey validationKey (non hex chars)?
