Getting Null Parameter Value In Controller When MVC Route Fires?

Jan 12, 2011

I'm using a custom route to create the following URL (http://mysite/subscriber/12345) where 12345 is the subscriber number. I want it to run the ShowAll action in the Subscriber controller. My route is firing and using Phil's route debugger, when I pass in the above url, the route debugger shows ID as 12345.

My controller is accepting an int as subscriberID. When it fires, the controller throws the error "The parameters dictionary contains a null entry for parameter 'id' of non-nullable type 'System.Int32". Why does the route debugger show a value and the controller doesn't see it?

Here's my route (first one is the culprit)

routes.MapRoute(
"SubscriberAll",
"subscriber/{id}",
new { controller = "Subscriber", action = "ShowAll", id=0 },
new { id = @"d+" } //confirm numeric
);
routes.MapRoute(
"Default", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
);

I'm getting a null in the ShowAll action? Here is the action method signature:

public ActionResult ShowAll(int id)

MVC :: Route To An Outside URL From Within A Controller?

Dec 17, 2010

I'm embarrassed to ask this question, but not sure what the syntax is to call a URL from within a controller (not associated with the application).

The reason I need to do this is because I am sharing authentication with another webforms app and would like to clear out the session variables before rerouting to that other URL. I'm just not sure of the syntax to route from an Action method to a URL like www.microsoft.com?

MVC :: Pass Parameter From Controller To View And Back To Another Controller?

Aug 16, 2010

I have a simple model where a Person has Gifts. I have a view which is a list of Gifts belonging to one Person.

My problem is with the Create action for a new Gift. I want it to default to the PersonID that we are already viewing the list of Gifts for. I tried simply passing the last PersonID (they are all the same)

Html.ActionLink("Create New", "Create", new { id = Model.Last().PersonID }) which works fine if there is already at least one Gift for that person but if this is the first Gift I don't have a value.

My Gift List controller knows the PersonID I want to pass but the view doesn't.

How do I pass this PersonID from my Gift List controller to my Gift Create controller via the Gift List view? Or is there a better way to do this?

C# - Custom MVC Route: Changing Where The Views For A Controller Are Located

Jan 5, 2011

So I have a controller called EmployeeController, and all the Views are in /Employee.

I'd like to create a route so that the EmployeeController will use /Employees and /Employees/Add instead of /Employee and /Employee/Add.

I keep finding articles about how to change the route to go to different actions.

MVC :: How To Handle Null {id} On Route

Mar 11, 2010

What if a user hits my site with [URL]t rather than [URL] In other words, they do not specify a value for {id}. If they do not, I want to display a nice "Not Found" page, since they did not give an ID.Is there a more standard MVC framework way of handling this, rather than the code I presently use (see below), where I test accept a nullable int? and then for null? Surely there is a smoother way to handle this.

MVC :: Bug - Get Value From Route Parameter Instead Of Property Of Model

May 18, 2010

I found little bug feature in MVC 2.

So, if we have in route defined parameter with same name as property at model and then we call it from strongly typed HTML helper (for example Html.TexBoxFor(x => x.PropertyName)), we get value from route parameter instead of property of model.

For example.

We have defined follow route:

[Code]....

Very simple model:

[Code]....

Next action in controller:

[Code]....

And very simple view:

[Code]....

Result you can see at follow picture:

I think what this dirty example described the essence of the problem. Let me know if I'm wrong.

Custom Route With More Than One Parameter In Url (customer - Extra Info)

Jan 31, 2011

I have a multi tenant system and I need to allow administrators to edit the information of other customers. I believe the correct way to do this is to append the customer ID to each request, and update my routes accordingly. How do I make ASP.NET accept and use something like this in the controller (order doesn't mean much to me): [URL] and how would I pass and consume that in my controller? The ASP.NET tutorials skip this... (or I don't know where to search)

MVC :: Route Parameter Reversed On Form Submit Button Click?

Jan 25, 2011

As the title says when I click the submit button on my form, instead of taking me to the next form with a url of controller/action/id or /action/id I am getting a nice 404 with a url of /id/action

The offending action is called IntakePage2. Typing the correct route manually works.

My routes are as follows:

[Code]....

The relevant controller code is as follows:

[Code]....

The partial that IntakePage1 loads:

[Code]....

<%}%>

IntakePage2 main page (The partial it references just has the text "boo" in it at the moment. It is intended to take an InsertViewModel object at some point.)

.NET MVC Controller Parameter Optional?

Oct 5, 2010

I have the following scenario: my website displays articles (inputted by an admin. like a blog).So to view an article, the user is referred to Home/Articles/{article ID}.However, the user selects which article to view from within the Articles.aspx view itself, using a jsTree list.So I what I need to do is to be able to differentiate between two cases: the user is accessing a specific article, or he is simply trying to access the "main" articles page. I tried setting the "Articles" controller parameter as optional (int? id), but then I am having problems "using" the id value inside the controller.

MVC :: Dynamically Change The Controller During A Request Based Upon A Parameter?

Aug 11, 2010

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?
