You could use a catchall route to capture everything that follows the wiki part of the url into the id token: routes.MapRoute( “Wiki”, “wiki/{*id}”, new { controller = “Wiki”, action = “DbLookup”, id = UrlParameter.Optional } ); Now if you have the following request: /wiki/AS/400 it will map to the following action on the Wiki … Read more
You just have to add a file named: _ViewStart.cshtml Under each area views folder: /Areas/Area1/Views/_ViewStart.cshtml And edit the file to point to the root layout like this: @{ Layout = “~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml”; } In order for this to work, you do not have to specify a value in the view’s layout property, if you do, you … Read more
I want to be able to request static .html files which are located in the ‘~/Views’ folder. You can’t. There’s a web.config file in this folder which explicitly forbids accessing any file from it. If you want to be able to access files from the client those files should not be placed in the Views … Read more
.axd files don’t exist physically. ASP.NET uses URLs with .axd extensions (ScriptResource.axd and WebResource.axd) internally, and they are handled by an HttpHandler. Therefore, you should keep this rule, to prevent ASP.NET MVC from trying to handle the request instead of letting the dedicated HttpHandler do it.
Look at the Default.aspx/Default.aspx.cs and the Global.asax.cs You can set up a default route: routes.MapRoute( “Default”, // Route name “”, // URL with parameters new { controller = “Home”, action = “Index”} // Parameter defaults ); Just change the Controller/Action names to your desired default. That should be the last route in the Routing Table.
Suffix the URL with a slash e.g. http://somedomain.com/api/people/staff.33311/ instead of http://somedomain.com/api/people/staff.33311.
I’ve tried to enable custom errors on production server for 3 hours, seems I found final solution how to do this in ASP.NET MVC without any routes. To enable custom errors in ASP.NET MVC application we need (IIS 7+): Configure custom pages in web config under system.web section: <customErrors mode=”RemoteOnly” defaultRedirect=”~/error”> <error statusCode=”404″ redirect=”~/error/Error404″ /> … Read more
MVC doesn’t support method overloading based solely on signature, so this will fail: public ActionResult MyMethod(int someInt) { /* … */ } public ActionResult MyMethod(string someString) { /* … */ } However, it does support method overloading based on attribute: [RequireRequestValue(“someInt”)] public ActionResult MyMethod(int someInt) { /* … */ } [RequireRequestValue(“someString”)] public ActionResult MyMethod(string someString) … Read more
If you do it at the end of Application_Start it will be too late, as WebApiConfig.Register has been called. The best way to resolve this is to use new initialization method by replacing in Global.asax : WebApiConfig.Register(GlobalConfiguration.Configuration); by GlobalConfiguration.Configure(WebApiConfig.Register);
You can do it by creating a new route and adding it to the routes collection in RegisterRoutes in your global.asax. Below is a very simple example of a custom Route: public class ExampleRoute : RouteBase { public override RouteData GetRouteData(HttpContextBase httpContext) { var url = httpContext.Request.Headers[“HOST”]; var index = url.IndexOf(“.”); if (index < 0) … Read more
