Im doing a web application in C# and ASP.NET MVC4.
On inspection of the web.config file I noticed that MVC4 has this:
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0" />
whereas if you look in the MVC3 web.config file you will see the following:
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0">
<assemblies>
<add assembly="System.Web.Abstractions, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
<add assembly="System.Web.Helpers, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
<add assembly="System.Web.Routing, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
<add assembly="System.Web.Mvc, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
<add assembly="System.Web.WebPages, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />
</assemblies>
</compilation>
So, my question is why are the assemblies not in MVC4 web.config? Or are they elsewhere?
Many thanks.
Most of this is now all "rolled up"
namespaces are what you typically will now see
If you need to add in an Assembly you are free to do so.
http://www.asp.net/whitepapers/mvc4-release-notes
You should still be able to do this:
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.5">
<assemblies>
<add assembly="System.Data.Entity, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089" />
</assemblies>
</compilation>
if you scroll a bit you'll see the both web.config have the namespaces added in them, I guess that would do.
<pages>
<namespaces>
<add namespace="System.Web.Helpers" />
<add namespace="System.Web.Mvc" />
<add namespace="System.Web.Mvc.Ajax" />
<add namespace="System.Web.Mvc.Html" />
<add namespace="System.Web.Routing" />
<add namespace="System.Web.WebPages" />
</namespaces>
</pages>

I'm trying to deploy an ASP.NET MVC 3 application from my development machine to another workstation. The versions of ASP.NET MVC are the same (3.0.20105), the versions of IIS are the same (7.5.7600.16385), and as far as I can tell the installed versions of the .NET framework are the identical. However, on my dev machine only the routes which hit an [Authorize] attribute actually redirect to ~/Account/Logon, but on the target machine every file I try to access redirects me to ~/Account/Logon (even when I try to access image or stylesheet assets).
I've already seen this question but it doesn't solve the problem for me :
ASP.NET MVC3 and Windows Auth on IIS keeps redirecting to /Account/Login
I've also tried adding these, but no joy :
<add key="autoFormsAuthentication" value="false" />
<add key="enableSimpleMembership" value="false" />
Any other ideas?
In case it helps, here's the web.config - it's pretty much unchanged from when I initially created the project :
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true" targetFramework="4.0">
<assemblies>
<add assembly="System.Web.Abstractions, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31BF3856AD364E35" />

<modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"/>
</system.webServer>
And in case this helps, the web.config from the Views folder, though this again is (as far as I can tell) unchanged :
<system.web.webPages.razor>

This came down to configuration in the end. I'm still not entirely sure what the specific permission differences were, but I had to change the identity that the application pool was running under in order to get this working.
For an ASP.NET MVC3 project, I decided to move from the standard SQL express membership provider to an SQL compact membership provider. I installed the microsoft universal provider nuget package (mentioned here: http://sqlcemembership.codeplex.com/).
This gave me the following error:
Unable to find the requested .Net Framework Data Provider. It may not be installed.
After googling it, I found that I had to add the following to my web.config:
<system.data>
<DbProviderFactories>
<remove invariant="System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0" />
<add name="Microsoft SQL Server Compact Data Provider 4.0" invariant="System.Data.SqlServerCe.4.0" description=".NET Framework Data Provider for Microsoft SQL Server Compact" type="System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeProviderFactory, System.Data.SqlServerCe, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91" />
</DbProviderFactories>
</system.data>
Which I did. I am now stuck with the following error that I cannot seem to get rid of:
Failed to find or load the registered .Net Framework Data Provider.
The error occurs when I try to access the membership database through the Membership class.
What am I doing wrong? I've posted my entire web.config file below.

The solution is that SQL Server Compact is not a native part of the .NET framework, but must be installed separately. This installer can be downloaded here: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17876
I used prevoius version of elmah in my asp.net mvc application and there I had to modify web config. For example I had to add this lines :
<system.webServer>
.....
<handlers>
<remove name="MvcHttpHandler" />
<remove name="UrlRoutingHandler" />
<add name="Elmah" verb="POST,GET,HEAD" path="elmah.axd" preCondition="integratedMode" type="Elmah.ErrorLogPageFactory, Elmah" />
<add name="MvcHttpHandler" preCondition="integratedMode" verb="*" path="*.mvc" type="System.Web.Mvc.MvcHttpHandler, System.Web.Mvc, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35, processorArchitecture=MSIL" />
</handlers>
</system.webServer>
<system.web>
....
<httpHandlers>
<add verb="POST,GET,HEAD" path="elmah.axd" type="Elmah.ErrorLogPageFactory, Elmah" />
<add verb="*" path="*.mvc" validate="false" type="System.Web.Mvc.MvcHttpHandler, System.Web.Mvc, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35, processorArchitecture=MSIL" />
</httpHandlers>
</system.web>
But now, with nuget installation, is it necessary to manually modify web.config ?
I've downloaded an example how we canimplement Membership Provider in Entity Framework code first from Imar Spaanjaars's blog
http://imar.spaanjaars.com/563/using-entity-framework-code-first-and-aspnet-membership-together
But at the moment I can't open any site until I register or login.
How can I as in template MVC 3 have access to all sites?

That example has two things that force authentication:
The default controller/action in Global.asax.cs is Home/Index. If you don't specify a controller/action in your request then it will default to Home/Index. Now check out HomeController.cs::Index
HomeController.Index has the [Authorize] attribute which requires authenticated sessions (i.e. where HttpContext.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated == true).
The only controllers/actions that allow for un-authenticated requests are Account/* and Home/About.
Remove the [Authorize] attribute from HomeController::Index and you'll get to it without requiring authentication.
I'm running the MVC3 RC2 with Razor in my VB.NET application. I can't for the life of me figure out why I'm getting highlight errors in my markup.
Here are a couple of screenshots.
