Thanks! Had removed sub folders and my publish didn’t copy the config files (so no overwrites). Didn’t realize there was one hidden!

I’m trying to run MVC in a web site project and was missing that Views web.config file. Thanks!

I too had this problem for the same reason (integrating into an existing ASP.NET site) Found the problem at

You need to look at the Web.config that the normal MVC project puts in the VIEWS folder – always was puzzled by that.

I think that actually the best approach is using both webform and mvc in the same site. Having the powerful RAD approach of webforms can be really useful to realize backoffice pages, leaving mvc and client side rendering for the public part of the site.
Moreover you can obtain a good separation from logic and view even with webforms, if you isolate all of your logic into services and then access those services, even with the objectDataSource, you can reach a good testability without MVC.

Surely, MVC structured pages are more testable and moreover MVC pattern forces you to separate logic and view, and I really prefer full control over html that you cannot have in webform enviroments.

Thanks for the post. I’m currently trying to mix ASP .NET Web Forms and MVC, by placing ViewPages on ordinary MasterPage. So this worked.
