Views not being found for add-ons after upgrading a site and using NuGet for add-ons
Found the issue - my rootPath for public modules was set to something other than ~/modules/ setting as below fixed it. Didn't pick it up at first as I thought this was something different to the protected modules.
<publicModules rootPath="~/modules/"

I'm in the process of upgrading a site from 7.5 to 8.10. For the most part I think I am there but I've been having trouble with the add-ons I've been trying to install via NuGet - I get an error in trying to resolve the views:
The view 'Index' or its master was not found or no view engine supports the searched locations. The following locations were searched:
/EPiServer/EPiServer.Social/Views/Overview/Index.aspx
/EPiServer/EPiServer.Social/Views/Shared/Index.aspx
/EPiServer/EPiServer.Social/Views/Overview/Index.ascx
/EPiServer/EPiServer.Social/Views/Shared/Index.ascx
~/Views/Overview/Index.aspx
~/Views/Overview/Index.ascx
~/Views/Shared/Index.aspx
~/Views/Shared/Index.ascx
~/Views/Overview/Index.cshtml
~/Views/Overview/Index.vbhtml
~/Views/Shared/Index.cshtml
~/Views/Shared/Index.vbhtml
The site is built in web forms originally created in the episerver deployment centre. I was assuming the virtual path provider in the episerver.framework section is what controls some of this but I'm not really sure how the views get resolved.
At the moment I have:
And following the NuGet install of add ons I do see them under modules/_protected and I presume it should try resolve that virtual path to the view in the zip file of the package but not really sure. Any pointers would be gratefully recieved.
