Mvc Views Not Found When Using Combined With Webforms CMS
Apr 28, 2010We have a website build in the umbraco 4.1 cms (webforms) default .net 3.5 And we have some MVC tools and controls build with MVC2.0 on net 4.0 i've managed to let the umbraco cms run in .net 4.0 and i've been following parts of this guide (for mvc 1.0 and umbraco 4.0.3) but now i'm stuck, umbraco has alot of url management itself, so i use the urlRewriting.net (included in umbraco) to redirect a certain url, to [URL] for example. i know the url rewriting works (if i force an error into the mvc.ashx i recieve it in the browser window. but each time it gets to the ProcessRequest it throws a "resource not found" error to the screen here is the full code for mvc.ashx that i use
<%@ WebHandler Language="C#" Class="mvc" %>
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Mvc;
public class mvc : IHttpHandler
{
public void ProcessRequest(HttpContext httpContext)
{
string originalPath = httpContext.Request.Path;
string newPath = httpContext.Request.QueryString["mvcRoute"];
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(newPath))
newPath = "/";
HttpContext.Current.RewritePath(newPath, false);
IHttpHandler ihh = (IHttpHandler)(new MvcHttpHandler());
ihh.ProcessRequest(HttpContext.Current);
HttpContext.Current.RewritePath(originalPath, false);
}
public bool IsReusable
{
get { return false; }
}
}
here is the web.config that i use

i have very few knowledge of mvc, though i am a certified umbraco developer. what i suspect is that there are some routing issues, and the views folder is not found or something like that.
