I have a very simple ASP.Net MVC Application that I have produced from an online tutorial. I’ve followed it exactly, step by step and have tried multiple times but keep getting the same error when I execute the code.
The program just displays an index page which lists a series of data from an sql server database using linq to sql.
This is the error:
Could not load type ‘MvcApplication1.Views.Home.Index’.
Any ideas what the problem could be?

Basically, add the Views directory’s web.config to your target Views directory. Although, it doesn’t sound like you’re using a strongly typed view, or aren’t deploying your code.
Also, I have seen this problem also appear if the compile settings are removed from web.config. In an ASP.NET MVC project created in Visual Studio 2008, those settings are included in web.config, and they should remain or else this error will occur.
