Question

In our ASP.NET MVC 4 web application, our BundleConfig.cs includes the following:

bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle(\"~/bundles/jquery\").Include(
                        


        

Answer 1

Whenever I set debug="off" in my web.config and run my mvc4 application i would end up with ...

in my html code and a JavaScript error

Expected ';'

There were 2 ways to get rid of the javascript error

1. set BundleTable.EnableOptimizations = false in BundleConfig.cs

OR

2. I ended up using NuGet Package Manager to update WebGrease.dll. It works fine irrespective if debug= "true" or debug = "false".
