    Hi @mark sails ,
    I think you need to change CodeBehind to CodeFile.
    This is normally happening when you copy files from a Web application projects to Website Project.
    When you create a Web Application the Page directive is CodeBehind for the web pages.
    If you create your application as Website then the Page directive is CodeFile.
    Best regards,
    Lan Huang
