having trouble on using ext.net with razor - razor

Question

i am new to ext.net framework.
I am trying to use the ext.net frame work along with razor to develop an web application using MVC4.
Ext.net being an open source technology i downloaded it and tried to run it .
I am having lots of trouble using this technology.
i configured my web config file according to the given instruction and added reference to the project such as ext.net, transformer.net, newtonsoft.json..
But as i start to use the code
#Html.X().ResourceManager(),
it doesnot allow me to use the .X() part creating the problem.
This implies that the ext.net framework has not been properly installed in my system but i have done all the neccesary steps.
so guys help me out. and i could not find many tutorials regarding this technology except on http://mvc.ext.net
any help on this matter would be very helpful and any one who would like to guide me is mostly welcomed

Answer 1

Try to install the Microsoft ASP.NET MVC package
(use Nu-get console Manager) and you can install Ext.NET with this command
Install-Package Ext.NET.MVC

Answer 2

If you have a Web.config file inside your /Views/ folder, please ensure the Ext.NET required nodes are also added to that Web.config file.

Answer 3

I think there is a problem with your web.config files.
Here my MVC 4 ext.net integrated application web.config file.
I hope it helps.
