I have a standard .NET library and an ASP.NET Core MVC project. I wanted to create a controller and view related to logging in within this library. However, when I navigate to a specific path like /test/index
, I receive an error stating that the page was not found. I added dependencies to the main project.
Library structure:

Error:
An unhandled exception occurred while processing the request.

Program.cs:
var builder = WebApplication.CreateBuilder(args);
// Add services to the container.
builder.Services.AddControllersWithViews();
var app = builder.Build();
// Configure the HTTP request pipeline.
if (!app.Environment.IsDevelopment())
{
app.UseExceptionHandler("/Home/Error");
// The default HSTS value is 30 days. You may want to change this for production scenarios, see https://aka.ms/aspnetcore-hsts.
app.UseHsts();
}
app.UseHttpsRedirection();
app.UseStaticFiles();
app.UseRouting();
app.UseAuthorization();
app.MapControllerRoute(
name: "default",
pattern: "{controller=Home}/{action=Index}/{id?}");
app.Run();
How can I fix this so that the library displays this view too.
