I have been able to get Raven Studio running with my ASP.NET 5 web app. Though I'm not sure what was the issue in my last test, here's the working combination I've discovered today:

1. Install RavenDB.Client, RavenDB.Database, and RavenDB.Embedded NuGet packages

2. From Startup method in Startup.cs, include the statement Raven.Database.Server.NonAdminHttp.EnsureCanListenToWhenInNonAdminContext(8080);

3. From the same Startup method, initialize the RavenDB context. Here's what my configuration looks like:

   public class RavenContext : IDisposable { public static IDocumentStore DocumentStore { get; private set; } public static IDocumentStore Init() { DocumentStore = CreateEmbeddableStore(); DocumentStore.Initialize(); return DocumentStore; } public void Dispose() { DocumentStore.Dispose(); DocumentStore = null; } private static IDocumentStore CreateEmbeddableStore() { var databaseName = "ASPNET5_Test"; return new EmbeddableDocumentStore { DataDirectory = "App_Data/RavenDB", DefaultDatabase = databaseName, UseEmbeddedHttpServer = true, Conventions = BuildDocumentConvention(), Configuration = { Port = 8080 } }; } } public partial class Startup { public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app) { ConfigureAuth(app); Raven.Database.Server.NonAdminHttp.EnsureCanListenToWhenInNonAdminContext(8080); RavenContext.Init(); } } 

Success! In order to get Raven Studio working with an ASP.NET 5 project, you need to put the Raven.Studio.Html5.zip file in the wwwroot directory.
