I've just started using Umbraco (V12.2.0), and on my local system everything went fine.

Moving to my hosting server I am having a few issues.

I developed in VS 2022 using SQL server Express and in the published output the wwwroot/media folder wasn't added to the export.

Took a while to workout it was missing, but that's sorted.

My current issue is the backend/admin area all works fine. I can view the content, etc.

However the frontend just shows blank pages. Looking at developer tools, the pages are getting 500 errors back from the Get calls.

Settings >> Log Viewer returns an error:

Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.ModelsBuilder.InMemoryAuto.UmbracoCompilationException: Exception of type 'Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.ModelsBuilder.InMemoryAuto.UmbracoCompilationException' was thrown.

   at Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.ModelsBuilder.InMemoryAuto.CollectibleRuntimeViewCompiler.CompileAndEmit(RazorCodeDocument codeDocument, String generatedCode)

   at Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.ModelsBuilder.InMemoryAuto.CollectibleRuntimeViewCompiler.CompileAndEmit(String relativePath)

   at Umbraco.Cms.Web.Common.ModelsBuilder.InMemoryAuto.CollectibleRuntimeViewCompiler.OnCacheMiss(String normalizedPath)

I'm not sure if any other folders we missing from the published output or if there is an issue with how I have it configured.

It's hosted on a windows server with IIS 10 & sql server express.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.
