Exception:

Attempt by method 'System.Web.Mvc.VirtualPathProviderViewEngine.GetPath(System.Web.Mvc.ControllerContext, System.String[], System.String[], System.String, System.String, System.String, System.String, Boolean, System.String[] ByRef)' to access method 'System.Web.Mvc.VirtualPathProviderViewEngine.get_DisplayModeProvider()' failed.

thrown by code:

return Populate(x =>
            {
                x.ViewName = "MyView";
                x.Subject = "[" + vm.FriendlyName + "] [" + DepResolver.DaemonAppSettingsHelper().EnvironmentName + "] [Status: " + vm.FriendlySuceeded + "]";
                x.To.Add(DepResolver.DaemonAppSettingsHelper().TaskEmailRecipient);

I encountered difficulties when updating a project to MVC5, which contained MVCMailer. the following version install resolved it for me.

Install-Package MvcMailer-vs2013 -Pre
