HttpCompilerException when setting up Kendo

[Gibran]

Hello,

I'm trying to follow along in this guide here:

http://docs.telerik.com/aspnet-mvc/getting-started/asp-net-mvc-5

... going with the "Use CDN Services" section.

I did everything it says to do and I get an except when I run my application:

http://www.shahspace.com/acm/json viewer harness testing/Kendo/HttpCompileException.png

I'm getting this in my _loginLayout.cshtml file.

I've pinned the problem down to these references here, which are in the head of my _mainLayout.cshtml file:

    <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://kendo.cdn.telerik.com/2017.1.118/styles/kendo.common-bootstrap.min.css" />
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://kendo.cdn.telerik.com/2017.1.118/styles/kendo.bootstrap.min.css" />

    <script src="http://kendo.cdn.telerik.com/2017.1.118/js/kendo.all.min.js"></script>
    <script src="http://kendo.cdn.telerik.com/2017.1.118/js/kendo.aspnetmvc.min.js"></script>

If I comment this out, my application runs fine.

I got the latest Kendo version from here:

http://docs.telerik.com/kendo-ui/intro/installation/prerequisites

...which says that 2017.1.118 is the latest.

In our application, we already have JQuery and Bootstrap. I'm wondering if the inclusion of these references are clobbering them.
