MVC Controller Factory Receiving Request For 'favicon.ico'?
Apr 1, 2011
I've noticed that a request to 'favicon.ico' is being passed to my ASP.net MVC controller factory when using Google Chrome and the Visual Studio Development Server. The 'controllerType' parameter has a value of 'null' which is unsurprisingly resulting in an unhandled exception and which I only know about because of an error log.where the request is coming from and why ASP.net is letting it get to the controller factory? CSS files and images for example are being correctly filtered out.
i get an error: "The controller for path '/favicon.ico' was not found or does not implement IController"
then i thought: how does the framework know for which files it has to instantiate a controller, because the same thing is true for script, css and other files (never thought of that, but now the favicon is complaining, i was wondering....
This is my first time trying to send a SOAP request in C#. When I click the Test button I should be passing a XML string to the web services and then getting a response. The lblTransactionNum label updates with "System.Net.ConnectStream" when it should be returning a transaction number within an unparsed response.
I'm not sure if the way I went about this is ideal but it is just from what I learned searching.
Here is my code

what I am missing? I have a desktop application that uses this web service in the same way but it is in VB.
Here is the VBscript from the desktop app if it contains some extra parsing steps that I will have to add to the C# for my web application but right now I am just trying to get the SOAP request and response wired up.
I'm using ASP.Net MVC Design pattern and when adding a controller to my application I'm receiving the below error. I added the controller called EmailMeController.cs in the Controllers folder and everything builds correctly. I created a link to /EmailMe/ but that doesn't work. I've added another controller previously to the same site with no problems. Here's a link to my controller: [URL]
Server Error in '/' Application.

I am working on windows Mobile 6. I have created Mobile Application which is receiving data from webservice. Web service is working on Development End and also in UK on Mobile Device. Same application is tried from Dubai to recieve same data but an error occured to receive data. What could be problem? Application from Dubai is accessing My PC service but server at Germany is not accessible. Is there ant blockage issue from server to specific Global IP. User is accesing using Wi Fi.
I am having trouble finding any information on this but basically in MVC how do I set up a controller method do read a GET request? For example I have the following url,
I have a controller method that returns a jSON object and in one calling situation, it works and in another calling situation, it does not work. When the URL in my browser is this:
http://localhost:65247/Client -- it works.
But, when my url looks like this:
http://localhost:65247/Client/UserAdmin?id=6 -- it DOES NOT work
In a nutshell, clients have users. From within the client, I wish to work on a specific user (this is the UserAdmin view). In this case, the client id is 6. From within the UserAdmin view that was launched with Id=6, I then wish to select a user from a dropdown. The idea was to use javascript and $.getJSON to fetch data for the specific user so as not to have to refresh the entire page. I use this approach in other parts of the app. The only difference I can see is with the URL in the browser. It would appear the presence of parameters via the '?' is futzing things up a bit.
I have a requirement whereby I need to be able to change the controller being used based upon a parameter. I am creating an application that needs to be dynamic enough to be able to change controllers on the fly. Let me explain further;
When the application starts a dictionary of custom controller names is loaded with a controller name as the key and a custom controller name as the value. This will be help in the application scope.
When a request is made I need to access the requested controller name, use that name and check to see if it matches a key in my controller dictionary and if so, replace the requested controller name with the custom controller name from the dictionary.
example;
My dictionary will contain data as follows Key: 'Home', Value: 'Home_IN' Key: 'Customer', Value: 'Customer_BE'
Now, the following request is made 'User/Edit/1'. Does the controller name exist in the dictionary? No, continue with original request.
Now, the following request is made 'Home/Details/2'. Does the controller name exist in the dictionary? Yes, replace the original controller name 'Home' withe custom controller name 'Home_IN' so changing the requested URL to be 'Home_IN/Details/2'.
Does this make sense?
My problem here is knowing exactly where in the request cycle I need to do this?
I am assuming I need to create my own custom controller factory?
UML and Patterns: An Introduction to Object-Oriented Analysis and Design and Iterative Development, that follows the UP(Unified Process). It uses a Grasp Controller pattern to interact with domain classes by some methods like NewSale(), AddNewItemToSale() and CloseSale. In windows form, I can instantiate a object of this class in the UI and then use its methods to perform the actions. This works well in Client apps, but when I use asp.net mvc, I cannot find a way to instantiate an object (one for each user) that was always visible for a Controller (MVC). I cannot insert as an attribute inside Controller because it always create a new one.

and the favicon is displayed in the browser tab when run locally, but not when published.
I have a website where I need to add a Favicon.ico. The site is written using ASP.NET 3.5 Web Forms with Routing. The issue is that the Favicon link always returns a page not found error. This is because the Routing does not know where the link for Favicon.ico should go to so it returns the Not Found page.
I have tried to add a StopRoutingHandler for the the favicon but none of them seem to work. Below are the ones I have tried so far:
routes.Add(new Route("MasterPages/{favicon}.ico", new StopRoutingHandler())); routes.Add(new Route("{favicon}.ico", new StopRoutingHandler())); routes.Add(new Route("favicon.ico", new StopRoutingHandler())); routes.Add(new Route("favicon.ico/{*pathInfo}", new StopRoutingHandler()));
Does anyone know what I should be using? My favicon.ico links I have tried look like this:
I'm doing a tutorial for error logging. It seems to be pretty basic. Everything works the way it should but I get an error I did not expect in my error log. The error says file not found for favicon.ico. From what I've read this is a file for the icon that would appear in the address bar, to the left of the url. I don't understand why I'm getting this error. I have no code that does this or references this file. It happens when I run the app in chrome and in firefox. Does the browser automatically look for this file to display to the left of the url? Is it automatically looking for this file as part of it's normal routine when loading a page?
I have added a favicon to my site but it will not appear. I have the following two lines in the master page markup:
[Code]....
When the first page that uses the master page is rendered in the browser, these links are:
[Code]....
This is as I would expect yet the favicon does not appear. It appears fine on any basic html pages but simply won't on any pages that are based on the master page.
I have an image that was a gif and saved as a favicon.ico. I get an error when I build the project that says data is invalid for this. What does this mean? Is it corrupted?
I think I know the answer to this but hoping someone has a neat solution. We are currently using two kinds of drop down controls (telerik and .net). I'm hoping to combine these into one control but struggling with a user friendly design.
Ideally the control would be created in the design file with a bool property of say "SimpleBox", to determine which kind of control to inherit. The instantiation would then be generated in the code behind design file and the constructor would then dynamically load the base (which isn't possible). The easy solution would be for me to create a IDropDown interface then have a factory create the correct one. The only real problem with this is the fact the instantiation has to be manually written every time. Which is a hassle, and does not speed up our process at all.
Although it isn't directly possible i'm looking for a solution along the lines of a factory which is ran inside the object constructor for setting the base, based on a bool property.
I'm writing an MVC app and want to have a central DataBase factory class to provide all my DB connections, something like this:-
[Code]....obviously I'll have to instanciate this every time I need to use it, so I was thinking of making it a static class:-
[Code].... so that instead of my controller code saying
[Code].... I can just say
but would this cause a memory leak? I'm sure I remember reading somewhere that if a static class creates objects that persist beyond it's methods and return those (esp things like DB connection objects) these won't get garbaged collected when the calling method is disposed of as they were created/referenced outside the scope of that calling (controller action) method and so will hang around in memory?
var tableObject = DatabaseFactory.GetDatabaseTable(); List<DbRecord> records = tableObject.Table.ToList();
I visited this Link to study about Factory design pattern.http://wiki.asp.net/page.aspx/310/factory/ But i am confused about it still. What i understood is that we must use an Interface to define a class .In the interface we will give the prototype of functions and later on we will define it in concrete class. Is that simple concept is Factory design pattern ?
I am developing an application in ASP.NET 3.5. i am exporting data to excel file using some interops dll's. earlier i have developed the applicaion in Windows 2003 Server. at that time i could able to export the data to excel file. but recently i have upgraded my pc to Vista version.it is working fine in my localhost. when i deploy the application in IIS iam getting this error. like "Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {00024500-0000-0000-C000-000000000046} failed due to the following error: 80070005.". can any one let me know the resolution for this error.
I wasn't getting this error before on localhost, but now it's occurring when I uploaded my ASP.NET C# web app to the server. I've been looking for an answer how to fix this, but cannot seem to get rid of it. I have a Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel DLL which I am trying to use to export data from a dataset to excel. I was told by customer service that the domain that I have registered is hosted on a 32-bit server.
