The type or namespace name 'Framework' does not exist in the namespace 'EPiServer'
Looking at a plain vanilla Alloy MVC site configuration, I see the following that might be interesting for you:

hi,
I have migrated site from Episerver 5.2 to 6.0->6.1 and then 7.0 and this is not mvc site.

Ok, let me rephrase this a bit. When you install a new EPiServer 7.5 site, regardless if it's based on MVC or Web Forms, you get the following configuration added for the site to be able to run. The EPiServer User Interface uses some MVC for it's views, thus you need MVC even if your templates are built using Web Forms. I would suggest that you add the line in bold from the previous post to see if this solves your problem.

hi,
The entire section which you mentioned above is already in web.config file.

Just my 2 cents:
- Is app pool running on correct .Net version?
- Is EPiServer.Framework.dll in bin/ folder
- Is System.Web.Mvc.dll present in bin/ dir?
- Is it 7.0 or 7.5 site?

Thanks Valdis
- Is app pool running on correct .Net version? - Yes
- Is EPiServer.Framework.dll in bin/ folder - Yes
- Is System.Web.Mvc.dll present in bin/ dir? - No we didn't find it in Episerver folder neither in published site folder in UAT server but same scenario with Test server and test site is up and running fine. Can you give us excact path to find?
- Is it 7.0 or 7.5 site? - IT is7.0 site

Hm, strange. Which .Net version are you targeting?
If you can't find System.Web.Mvc.dll in your bin/ then most probably you are using Mvc installed "globally" on the machine (it's better to reference particular NuGet package). Try to find it in GAC or in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft ASP.NET\ASP.NET MVC 4\Assemblies.
Don't have 7.0 installed anymore to play around - so just a wild guesses..

System.Web.Mvc.dll is there at C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft ASP.NET\ASP.NET MVC 4\Assemblies.
