Is there a way to return the same view every time a HttpNotFoundResult is returned from a controller? How do you specify this view? I'm guessing configuring a 404 page in the web.config might work, but I wanted to know if there was a better way to handle this result.
Edit / Follow up:
I ended up using the solution found in the second answer to this question with some slight tweaks for ASP.Net MVC 3 to handle my 404s: How can I properly handle 404s in ASP.Net MVC?
How can I use use an actionResult to return both a view and a partial view. Actually in case of an ajax request it should send a partial view else it should send a view.
public ActionResult Test(string Name ="", DateTime? Date= null, string sex="" ) { myModel model = new myModel(Name, Date, Sex); if(IsAjaxRequest) return PartialView("partialView", model) else return View(model); }
I have say class/ojbect one which I am returning as details. But then there is a second class that is related to the first that I want to list (and have an option to look at the details). How do I get return both of those?
Example is like in an item as the main piece but there may be details or other items that are related to the main item. I will select them with a linq query but then how do I return them to the same view?
Do I need to have some sort of partial or other form to display the second object type? I don't see where returning the view I can return both.
My thought for right now is to create a new class that contains both of the object types but I know there has to be a better way.
I am having some trouble with returning a View in response to an ActionResult method being invoked. In my view I have a ViewData which holds a value which is being read. Current process.. user selects 1 of three radio buttons, and clicks a button to apply the selection, which in turn triggers method which sets the form ..
Now in my controller, I change the value in the ViewData and simply which to return to the View();. Here is we're the fun starts.. I receive the following message, and cannot get around it. The view 'GridEditingMode' or its master was not found. The following locations were searched:
I have a list of items(surveys) displayed on my home page. When I click the edit button for a particular item I have a modal pop up with the items details to edit. When the user clicks Save I submit the form via ajax. Depending on whether ModelState.IsValid == true I want to update the modal with validation information or close the modal and update the list of items with the new information.
This is how I am submitting the form:

My Questions
The only thing I can think to do is return JSON from my controller with a flag indicating the state of the ModelState.IsValid and the corresponding partial that I should show.
1) How would I do this?
2) Is there a better way?
Update
I found this: [URL]
but it seems more likely that I am going about the whole thing incorrectly.
I have two tables: Projects and ProjectsData and I want to execute query with join and get the result in the View. In the Controller I have this code:
ViewBag.projectsData = (from pd in db.ProjectsData join p in db.Projects on pd.ProjectId equals p.ID where pd.UserName == this.HttpContext.User.Identity.Name orderby p.Name, p.ProjectNo select new { ProjectData = pd, Project = p });
What I should use in the View to extract this data. I tried that:
@foreach (var item in ViewBag.projectsData) { @item.pd.UserName }
I am just wondering whether it is possible to return the name of the view an ascx control is currently being rendered in? Is there an object I can use to access the name?
Basically I want the control to dynamically set certain text within itself dependant on the view it is rendered within.
I want to get data from Projects(which have CourseId) and related CourseName from Courses table.
I have written following code:
var projects = from n in db.Projects join c in db.Courses on n.CourseId equals c.ID orderby n.Name select new { Project = n, Course = c }; return View(projects.ToList());
and I get error:
The model item passed into the dictionary is of type 'System.Collections.Generic.List1[<>f__AnonymousType22[ProjectManager.Models.Project,ProjectManager.Models.Course]]', but this dictionary requires a model item of type 'System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable`1[ProjectManager.Models.Project]'.
What I need to do in Controller and in View to display this data?
public ActionResult Index() { MembershipUser currentUser = Membership.GetUser(); Guid UserId = (Guid)currentUser.ProviderUserKey; using (var db = new MatchGamingEntities()) { var MyAccount = from m in db.Accounts..........
I want to be able to do a join query between my two tables Accounts and BankTransactions. This is a one to many relationship, there can be multiple BankTransactions per Account. I want to query this and display the account information including all the bank statements that are associated with it. I did a join in order to get it, but I am having trouble handling the model. I keep getting this error:
LINQ to Entities does not recognize the method 'System.Collections.Generic.List1[MatchGaming.Models.BankTransaction] ToList[BankTransaction](System.Collections.Generic.IEnumerable1[MatchGaming.Models.BankTransaction])' method, and this method cannot be translated into a store expression.
Curious what the best practice is for returning errors to a view from a controller where the error isn't really a validation error, but more like "user not found" or "service timeout" type of errors. (in ASP.NET MVC2 framework)
I've been adding them to the ModelState's model errors, but that doesn't seem appropriate. (although easy to implement and maintain)
Example - A user tries to log in, and their credentials do not match a known user.
I have a grid view and I added edit and Save buttons to it. When I click on edit I am able to edit the data but when I click on save I amgetting the data before edit.
Please see my code below.
Eg: I have start date as 2005-10-10 12:00 AM so After I click On edit it is letting me to edit, So If I edit the start date to 2010-10-10 12:00 PM and click on the save button I am stil getting the old start date. which is 2005-10-10 12:00 AM instead of 2010-10-10 12:00 PM
I have no clue what I'm doing wrong here, but I wanted to create a grid view based on a return from a tableadapter.

Also, maybe I should be going about this another way as I wanted to add a drop down to each record and a link to each record.On pointers on how I should do this would be great too.
I have an update function in my data layer which is defined as:
public int UpdateRBTable(parameters ...) This calls a SQL Server Stored Procedure to perform an update function on the database.
The process does its job for updating the table. However, the stored procedure has a return value (which indicates how many rows were updated), but this return value is not returned to the application. The application always shows that a zero was returned from the stored procedure.
Can my WebMethod return an XmlDocument as return type?
When I try to consume the web service I'm still not getting XML. It appears as though a reference to the method is being returned rather than say a string containing XML.
<WebMethod()> _ Public Function CustomerSearch(ByVal lastName As String, ByVal firstName As String, ByVal companyName As String, ByVal city As String, ByVal state As String, ByVal email As String) As XmlDocument ' Create XML doc Dim doc As XmlDocument = New XmlDocument() ' some more code Return doc End Function
