I have a virtual directory under my MVC website in IIS called “Files”. This directory is at the same level as my Views directory. When I link to a file from my MVC app to a file under my Files directory, I get the following error:

The controller for path
‘/Files/Images/1c7f7eb8-5d66-4bca-a73a-4ba6340a7805.JPG’
was not found or does not implement
IController.

It thinks that my Files VD is a controller. How do I access my files like a normal VD without MVC interfering?

Thanks.

    ASP.Net looks for the directory first and then tries to match a controller, so what you are doing should work. Are you sure the file with that name exists and is accessible?
