Happy New Year SO users! I have an issue that I hope someone can help me with.
The steps that got me here:
An ASP.NET Web Site was converted to a Web Application (this works).
Then MVC libraries were added to the Web Application via the web.config file.
An MVC controller, view and routing entry were added manually (this works – able to see the default blue page).
I then MANUALLY added an Areas folder and supporting folders / files including the AreaRegistration class (manually as well) [Note: I have to add the MVC stuff (like an Area) manually because using the usual right-click context dialog box is not available]
The problem:
The non-Areas controller / view AND the Areas controller / view work fine on my local pc, but return a 404 error on the server. Why? What do I need to do to get this working?
Other Information
Local IIS version 7.5
Server IIS version = 7.5
I was able to solve this issue by the proper registration of Routes in the Global.asax.cs file.
