I'm getting a “Does not implement IController” error on images and robots.txt in MVC2

Question

I\'m getting a strange error on my webserver for seemingly every file but the .aspx files.

Here is an example. Just replace \'/robots.txt\' with any .jpg name or .gi

This error could also happen if inside a view in your area, you use the Html.Action helper. This helper will always use the area as a prepend, unless you specifically tell it not to. E.g.,

@Html.Action("Main", "Navigation", new { area = string.Empty })
