Cant get WebAPI to work + The object has not yet been initialized

Vote:
 

Hey Guys,

I have the lastest EPI + Commerce + Epi Find installed. Everything works. 

And i just wanted to configure WebAPi.

But i get the following error. "ExceptionMessage"The object has not yet been initialized. Ensure that HttpConfiguration.EnsureInitialized() is called in the application's startup code after all other initialization code."

I've tried several things but either i get this or i get a 404 on the API call.  (http://localhost/api/v1/status)

My code setup now. 

TestController:

using EPiServer.Logging.Compatibility;
using System.Web.Http;

namespace Hyva.Web.Api.V1.Controllers
{
    [RoutePrefix("api/v1")] // Route prefix for this controller, with versioning
    public class TestController : ApiController
    {
        private static readonly ILog log = LogManager.GetLogger("TestController");

        [Route("status")]
        [HttpGet]
        //[EnableCorsByAppSetting]
        public IHttpActionResult Status()
        {   
            return Ok("Hello!");       
        }       
    }
}

My webapiconfig.cs class

using System.Net.Http.Headers;
using System.Web.Http;

namespace Hyva.Web.Api.Config
{
    public class WebApiConfig
    {
        public static void Register(HttpConfiguration config)
        {
            config.EnableCors();
            // Web API routes
            config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();

            config.Formatters.JsonFormatter.SupportedMediaTypes.Add(new MediaTypeHeaderValue("text/html"));

            config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
                name: "DefaultEpiApi",
                routeTemplate: "api/{controller}/{id}",
                defaults: new { id = RouteParameter.Optional }
            );

           
        }
    }
}

My initialization class:

using EPiServer.Framework;
using EPiServer.Framework.Initialization;
using Hyva.Web.Api.Config;
using System.Web.Http;

namespace Hyva.Web.Implementation.Initialization
{
    [InitializableModule]
    [ModuleDependency(typeof(EPiServer.Web.InitializationModule))]
    public class RoutingInitialization : IInitializableModule
    {
        public void Initialize(InitializationEngine context)
        {
            //Add initialization logic, this method is called once after CMS has been initialized
            
            WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration);           
        }

        public void Preload(string[] parameters) { }

        public void Uninitialize(InitializationEngine context)
        {
            //Add uninitialization logic
        }
    }
}

And ofcourse i call my api by the url : localhost/api/v1/status

This gives me 

{
Message: "An error has occurred.",
ExceptionMessage: "The object has not yet been initialized. Ensure that HttpConfiguration.EnsureInitialized() is called in the application's startup code after all other initialization code.",
ExceptionType: "System.InvalidOperationException",
StackTrace: " at System.Web.Http.Routing.RouteCollectionRoute.get_SubRoutes() at System.Web.Http.Routing.RouteCollectionRoute.GetRouteData(String virtualPathRoot, HttpRequestMessage request) at System.Web.Http.WebHost.Routing.HttpWebRoute.GetRouteData(HttpContextBase httpContext)"
}

I've read some posts about changing the INitialization module to this

using EPiServer.Framework;
using EPiServer.Framework.Initialization;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Http;

namespace Hyva.Web.Implementation.Initialization
{
    [InitializableModule]
    [ModuleDependency(typeof(EPiServer.Framework.FrameworkInitialization))]
    public class TestAttributeRouting : IInitializableModule
    {
        public void Initialize(InitializationEngine context)
        {
            GlobalConfiguration.Configuration.MapHttpAttributeRoutes();

        }

        public void Preload(string[] parameters) { }

        public void Uninitialize(InitializationEngine context)
        {
            //Add uninitialization logic
        }
    }
}

and remove the config.MapHttpAttributeRoutes(); from the webapiconfig.cs, but that just gives me a 404 on the webapi call.. 

Other posts like this https://world.episerver.com/forum/developer-forum/Developer-to-developer/Thread-Container/2017/4/the-object-has-not-yet-been-initialized--ensure-that-httpconfiguration-ensureinitialized/ Just basically gives me the same 404 or the same error as above. 

How do you guys have it working.
