keep getting The view "Error" not found when using Elmah and asp.net mvc 4 -

i using elmah 1.2 logging framework asp.net mvc 4 application.

in web.config file, set customerrors mode on.

<customerrors mode="on" defaultredirect="/error">   <error statuscode="404" redirect="/error/notfound" /> </customerrors> 

i created custom handleerrorattribute, copied code link.

http://joel.net/logging-errors-with-elmah-in-asp.net-mvc-3--part-4--handleerrorattribute

in home controller, throw exception test logging framework.

    public actionresult about()     {         throw new exception("this buggggggggggggg");          viewbag.message = "your app description page.";          return view();     } 

"this buggggggggggggg" logged in database, great, works. there's error logged, , didnt expect happen.

the view 'error' or master not found or no view engine supports searched locations. following locations searched: ~/views/home/error.aspx ~/views/home/error.ascx ~/views/shared/error.aspx ~/views/shared/error.ascx ~/views/home/error.cshtml ~/views/home/error.vbhtml ~/views/shared/error.cshtml ~/views/shared/error.vbhtml

update:

follow tim's suggestion, causes issue.

if create error.cshtml in shared folder. when unhandled exception happens, show error.cshtml file, not "/error" page. have customerrors enabled. should redirected "/error" page.

we created empty mvc5 app , added elmah it. receiving error described though did not add handleerrorattribute. after research found nuget package elmah.mvc adds additional configuration settings. in appsettings section of web.config find these 2 lines:

<appsettings>     <add key="elmah.mvc.disablehandler" value="false" />     <add key="elmah.mvc.disablehandleerrorfilter" value="false" /> </appsettings> 

these 2 keys default "false". changed values "true" , logged exception went away.
