2021.009 - Fatal Error in Twig\Loader\FilesystemLoader.findTemplate();

I get this message when opening home page after copying all files across (am upgrading from 3.2):

Unable to find template "C:/inetpub/vhosts/mickhynes.com/forum.dartman.online/library/Vanilla/Web/Asset/AssetPreloadModel.twig" (looked into: C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mickhynes.com\forum.dartman.online).

If you try to run this on Windows with IIS, you need to know IIS good enough to help yourself. There are not many discussions dealing with that topic here and I do not know if they are helpful

Thanks. I feel someone may be able to help. The file specified is in the location specified, and the IIS app pool has full access to that folder.

I've managed to fix this. To anyone else running it on Windows, it seems to be how paths are being presented. I can't vouch for long-term viability of this solution, but it fixed my situation. In the findTemplate function in the /vendor/twig/twig/src/Loader/Filesystemloader.php file, I commented out the lines below and replaced with new ones (essentially just use $shortname instead of combining it with $path). $shortname contained the full path to the file already in some (but not all) cases - so the function now handles both.

foreach ($this->paths[$namespace] as $path) {
            if (!$this->isAbsolutePath($path)) {
                $path = $this->rootPath.$path;							
            }
	
            //if (is_file($path.'/'.$shortname)) {
	if (is_file($shortname)) {  // <---- check file on $shortname only
                //if (false !== $realpath = realpath($path.'/'.$shortname)) {
		if (false !== $realpath = realpath($shortname)) { // <---- use $shortname only
                    return $this->cache[$name] = $realpath;
                }

                return $this->cache[$name] = $shortname; // <---- use $shortname only
            }
			
	if (is_file($path.'/'.$shortname)) { // <---- check file combining $path and $shortname - original implementation
                if (false !== $realpath = realpath($path.'/'.$shortname)) {				
                    return $this->cache[$name] = $realpath;
                }

                return $this->cache[$name] = $path.'/'.$shortname;
            }
			
        }
