Someone has asked me to look at their code to do a few little changes to the processing, but before I can get anywhere, I can’t even run up the main page. It seems to be MVC, seems to have the right routes etc. It defaults to a ~/home from default.aspx and there seems to be a route in place, but I get a 404.
I’ve tried changing the route and it still fails. I’ve debugged and it seems to be setting the routes up. I’ve set up Phil Haack’s debug utility but it still just gives me a 404.
I’m quite new to asp.net MVC, but I’ve done asp.net and know some MVC (CakePHP) and I’m not really working with the MVC, just some processing code. Are there any big “gotchas” I should be looking for?
The problem was that the project was built on asp.net MVC Preview, and I already had asp.net MVC v1 installed, which seemed to create some sort of conflict.
I’ve removed asp.net MVC and the problem has gone away.
