EPiServer 7 “The file ‘/link/GUID.aspx’ does not exist.” Error
I ran into the following error while working with an installation of EPiServer 7 this week. It took me a long time to finally figure out the solution.
First, here’s the error and stack trace:
2014-03-27 12:12:43,396 [6] ERROR EPiServer.Global: 1.2.5 Unhandled exception in ASP.NET
System.Web.HttpException (0x80004005): The file ‘/link/cc299342a697494c8a4bc47717210bf0.aspx’ does not exist.

Adding the following TemplateDescriptor attribute to the code-behind class for my page template saved me.
[TemplateDescriptor(Path = "~/Templates/PageTemplates/Home.aspx")]
public partial class Home : TemplatePage<HomePage>
