Directory does not exist. Parameter name: directoryVirtualPath

Answer 1

I had created a new Angular application and written

bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/app")
    .IncludeDirectory("~/Angular", "*.js")
    .IncludeDirectory("~/Angular/directives/shared", "*.js")
    .IncludeDirectory("~/Angular/directives/main", "*.js")
    .IncludeDirectory("~/Angular/services", "*.js"));

but I had created no services, so the services folder was not deployed on publish as it was empty. Unfortunately, you have to put a dummy file inside any empty folder in order for it to publish
