Most likely this is related with the changes from the latest NextGen Gallery update. Our developers will look into replicating it on our own IIS instances. * As a temporary workaround, please revert to NextGen Gallery 3.37 that can be downloaded from: [https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/nextgen-gallery.3.37.zip](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/nextgen-gallery.3.37.zip) * Thanks for your understanding * Thread Starter [And1rzej](https://wordpress.org/support/users/and1rzej/) * (@and1rzej) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/runtimeexception-thrown-7/#post-17062795) * I did, so please let me know when it will be newest and SAFE version to update * [lheisey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lheisey/) * (@lheisey) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/runtimeexception-thrown-7/#post-17063902) * To help debug, for me the problem is only on my local Windows servers both on LAMP and Local by Flywheel. My production site running a Linux server does not have the problem which is in this file: wp-content\plugins\nextgen-gallery\products\ photocrati_nextgen\modules\mvc\package.module.mvc.php. If I replace the 3.39 version of this file with the 3.37 version my Windows sites work OK. * Plugin Contributor [Imagely](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imagely/) * (@imagely) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/runtimeexception-thrown-7/#post-17064721) * Hi [@and1rzej](https://wordpress.org/support/users/and1rzej/), * Thanks for asking. Our dev team made it the biggest priority and we look forward to have it fixed very soon. You can expect a new NGG version to be released on this week or at the beginning of the following one. * Plugin Contributor [Imagely](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imagely/) * (@imagely) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/runtimeexception-thrown-7/#post-17084800) * Hi [@and1rzej](https://wordpress.org/support/users/and1rzej/), [@lheisey](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lheisey/), * We are happy to inform you that the latest NextGen Gallery update (3.41) should fix the _“not a valid MVC Template”_ problem that you have reported. * We appreciate your patience * Thread Starter [And1rzej](https://wordpress.org/support/users/and1rzej/) * (@and1rzej) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/runtimeexception-thrown-7/#post-17089705) * Hi [@imagely](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imagely/) – thank you, I did, and everything seems to be good now, that latest update fixed the _“not a valid MVC Template”_, problem… I really appreciate your help. * [ns1045](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ns1045/) * (@ns1045) * [2 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/runtimeexception-thrown-7/#post-17127437) * I still get the error: NextGen Version: 3.41WordPress: 6.3.2Theme: Activello * [ns1045](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ns1045/) * (@ns1045) * [2 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/runtimeexception-thrown-7/#post-17155361) * Still have the problem! When I deactivate the NextGen-Plugin the Homepage is working pretty well (except the galleries off course ;-)). I assume that it could caused by running wordpress in a docker-unit with wordpress in an userdefined path: /bitnami/wordpress/… . Is there any fixed path / reference to root in the code? - This reply was modified 2 years, 7 months ago by [ns1045](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ns1045/). * [kefi](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kefi/) * (@kefi) * [2 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/runtimeexception-thrown-7/#post-17286668) * I have the same problem with WordPress 6.4.2 and NextGen 3.55 on my Windows XAMPP installation. * Is there any solution for this already? * [gamerwithadegree](https://wordpress.org/support/users/gamerwithadegree/) * (@gamerwithadegree) * [2 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/runtimeexception-thrown-7/#post-17310443) * I am also getting this error “default-view.php.php is not a valid MVC template” notice the double .php. THis is also on a local xampp install using NGG version 3.55. Rolling back to version 3.41 fixes the problem.
