[Solved]The controller for path '/Admin/Plugin/ConfigureMiscPlugin' was not found or does not implement IController

I've just gone through the Pluralsight course on creating a Nop Commerce plugin. I'm setting up my plugin but when I click "configure" by my plugin in the plugin list I get the following error:

The controller for path '/Admin/Plugin/ConfigureMiscPlugin' was not found or does not implement IController

I've looked at the solutions on the forums but none seem to fit my situation. Here is my route configuration:

void IMiscPlugin.GetConfigurationRoute(out string actionName, out string controllerName, out System.Web.Routing.RouteValueDictionary routeValues)
        {
            actionName = "Configure";
            controllerName = "MiscMCPSImport";
            routeValues = new RouteValueDictionary { { "Namespaces", "Nop.Plugin.Misc.MCPSImport.Controllers" }, { "area", null } };
        }

I've checked that everything is spelled correctly. I can configure other plugins just fine so it is a problem somewhere with my plugin. Full stack trace is as follows:

It turns out either my controller or configuration model class was not set to public.

Hi I have a similar or equal problem, I installed a theme,I put it the theme folder on themes, and the plugin in plugins folder, the template appear in admin settings but, when I going to plugins list, and I click on configure the page say this error

The controller for path '/Admin/Plugin/ConfigureMiscPlugin' was not found or does not implement IController.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

It sounds like there is a problem with your plugin. Is it one that you made yourself?

No, is the original plugin from the theme and 3.50 ver, but when put it local with visual studio go great, but not in production

Check to see if the views are being copies to plugin directory and are in the proper folder.

I resolved, I deleted all web site on my server and then with VS I rebuild all the project with the theme installed locally, and then I put it all again in the server folder and . . . . IT´S WORK!! but now just I have a problem with the lenguaje package,  because I install spanish but when I change in the website, some words like vars names appears, when english is selected no issue

This is a quick fix:

If this is a new plugins and do not need to re-build to the project, you may try to open the "Global.asax" and put space and save, this will trigger to change the date and somehow nopCommerce refresh or rebuild the WebIIS or Core settings what ever it is. Then thats it try to restart app and re-open the menu, I already create a ticket for this and sent the replay to you.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
Bryan
