Error: «Could not load type MvcApplication»

Question

I am getting the error

Could not load type MvcApplication

when I try to run my website.

How to correct it?

Answer 1

I had this error again and none of the above worked for me. I had to remove the following node in .csproj file: ..... Reloaded VS and it worked.

FYI, VS was able to recreate the node and then I recreated the website in IIS (through VS) and it worked perfectly.

Hopefully this will help someone.
