This error occured when publishing a site but was working ok inside visual studio usage. The solution in this case is simple.
The problem is that a reference was added as below to an aspx page

Copy Code

<%@ Reference control="/UserControls/FormExtra.ascx" %>


All it needed was the ~ added 

Copy Code

<%@ Reference control="~/UserControls/FormExtra.ascx"  %>
