View 1 RepliesI'm currently using asp.net mvc 3 on vs 2010, i can't debug the action methods of the controllers (if its a ajax call/request).
View 6 RepliesI have a controller called Person and it has a post method called NameSearch.
This method returns RedirectToAction("Index"), or View("SearchResults"), or View("Details"). The url i get for all 3 possibilities are [URL] How would i change this to rewrite the urls to [URL], [URL] for View("SearchResults"), and [URL].
I have an action where I get the list from the database and pass it to the view. Now, I want that when I fire another action I can somehow get hold of that list (List). How can I do that since ViewData and the TempData is erased on each request.

@Html.ActionLink("View", "GridAction", new { action = $("#DropDownList1").val() });
There is a way to get the array of role from the HttpContextBase ?
I'm looking to do a class like that:
public static IList<string> GetUserRoles(this HttpContextBase context)
{
if (context != null)
{
}
// return roles array;

I'm implement Comet in Asp.net MVC, I used timer to keep Async request in server, Async request will complete when timer elapsed 1 minute and response to client (to avoid 404 error) and then reconnect to Async Controller. I also wanna execute some Synchronous action during Async request was holding, but the problem is: When an Async action was executed and hold by using timer, the Sync Action wasn't called until Async action (comet long-live request) completed. I did test with firefox 3.6 many times, but the result is the same, so strange, Do you know why ? I have a sub some questions : To implement comet, using timer (response after some minutes elapsed) or thread (response after several time sleeping thread) to hold async request, which is better?

Lets say I have a simple controller for ASP.NET MVC I want to test. I want to test that a controller action (Foo, in this case) simply returns a link to another action (Bar, in this case).How would you test TestController.Foo? (either the first or second link)
My implementation has the same link twice. One passes the url throw ViewData[]. This seems more testable to me, as I can check the ViewData collection returned from Foo(). Even this way though, I don't know how to validate the url itself without making dependencies on routing.The controller:
public class TestController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Foo()[code].....
My httppost action doesnt seem to have received my model. The code is below;

i put a breakpoint on the line; return RedirectToAction("Error", "Dashboard"); and i found that appQualif carried no values whatsoever from the form i submitted..
I've been using Html.Action("ActionName", "ControllerName") to invoke child actions across controllers without needing to have the view in ViewsShared. This has been working great for displaying things like session or cookie information.
Instead of just accessing cookies, I would like to pass additional parameters to Html.Action("ActionName", "ControllerName") so the action can execute different code based on the the data passed to the original view.
Should I be using a different method to pass parameters to a child action in a different controller?
I'm trying to add file upload functionality to a page. I've got a form that posts the selected file to a controller with a 'savefile' method. But if I don't add a get version of 'savefile' I'll get a 404 error. Here is the form code which is presented on the Index page:

And here is the controller code:
[Code]....
Intuitively I don't think I should need a GET version of SaveFile but if omit it I get a 404 error when the form posts. Why should I need a GET version of SaveFile when all I want is to post a form and save the file?
Does any one know how to dynamically add ActionFilter to an Action?

I'm looking for a way to find out which action invoked the other: for instance, when redirecting to Action1, I need to know whether it is coming from clicking "next" button at Action0 or clicking "back" button at Action2. This is is to avoid performing Action1 twice (My app is like a wizard, if I click back button at Action2, I don't want to execute Action1 again).

how do I tell Create Button to send to an Action named Create and to Edit to an Action named Edit on the same form?I guess it is possible on ASP.NET MVC if it is possible on ASP.NET Webforms
Does the current MvcRouteHandler support something similar to Monorail's concept of an controller area? a way to group the controllers.
View 1 Repliesi'm in a project with a service layer (WCF), a proxy layer that are between this service layer and the "controllers". Every controller should call this proxy layer to get data, and instead return a model to be rendered, returns a bigger entity that i've to convert using Linq to a more little model. Then pass it to the view.
Do you think is a good idea that this conversion be done by the controller? In my opinion the controller is not the responsable to shape the incoming object from the proxy layer. This object should be returned by the proxy layer and the controller should pass it to the view directly.
I wounder if there are samples how to create Restful serivece withmvc. Or I can use MY controllers to get data and post data?
View 2 RepliesI want to test that when my form data is posted back to my controllers that the data annotations and the model binding is going to do its job and give the correct model state. After googling for a while I can't find a really good tutorial or article that shows how to do this.
Can anyone point me in the right direction? What is the best practice in this area? I have read that I may need to use moq and MVCContrib but I have not read a tutorial that makes me shout, "Yes, this is the right way to do it!"
I'm starting a new ASP.NET MVC project, and I decided to put my controllers in a different assembly. Evertyhing works fine, but I have hit a problem: I created a new area in my MVC Project, called Administration. I have an AdminController Class in my seperate assembly which is supposed to return views from my Admin area, but everytime it tries to return a view, it looks for it in the wrong place (~/Admin/SomeView.cshtml Instead of ~/Administration/Admin/SomeView.cshtml) How can I tell the controller to look for views in the wanted area?
View 1 RepliesI am wanting to create a path somewhat like this: /Administration/News and have it forward to a News controller instead of it being the action.How would I go about this?
View 3 RepliesI was wondering what the major differences are between controllers and webservices. I understand webservices can receive postbacks via ajax while controllers cannot. Also, when you put a webservice in a MVC site, what file structure do you use to store it? Just create a single services folder?
View 4 RepliesBasically what the title says. I created a new MVC application. I'm trying to add new pages to the site, but anytime I do I get the following error:Server Error in '/' Application.The resource cannot be found.Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.
namespace MyAppMVC.Controllers

public class ProductsController : Controlle{
public ActionResult Index()

I'm currently migrating a WebForms app over to MVC. One problem I have is that some users will probably have a page like www.mysite.com/login.aspx bookmarked (or maybe some other .aspx page). Currently this will throw an InvalidOperationException stating that the controller 'login.aspx' could not be found. Is there any way I can handle this so that it redirects the user to another page?
I know I can implement Application_Error in the Global.asax file, but I'd rather not redirect on any InvalidOperationException, just when it's an invalid controller.
