In Account controller it is supposed to validate the user credentials and determine if its a successful logon. In the debugger it marked it as true (credentials were good) retrieved the info from the database on that user, and then ran the RedirectToAction(string,
string) in order to redirect the user to the view "ViewAll.cshtml". Just shows "errorpage" in jquery mobile. No real compilation errors.
I correctly identified my actionName and my controllerName (Views_IndexController.cshtml contains the action actionName). At this point I have no idea what I am doing wrong.
I figured out the problem(s). Seemed to be an issue with a number of naming conventions that I did not know beforehand. Changed everything around, and it worked.

Are you sure this is controller name, verify again.

Changed all my naming conventions
now it is return RedirectToAction("ViewAll", ViewsIndexController)
the ViewsIndex controller file has a method for ViewAll which returns View();
Same problems

Change it to
return RedirectToAction("ViewAll", "ViewIndex");
