I'm getting a "Cannot insert null into column" error from an unrelated table when trying to add a new record for the "original" table.
I have the following two (relevant) entities:
public class Complex
{
[Key]
public Guid Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public Guid OwnerId { get; set; }
[ForeignKey("OwnerId")]
public Owner Owner { get; set; }
public Guid AddressId { get; set; }
[ForeignKey("AddressId")]
public virtual Address Address { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<Unit> Units { get; set; }
public virtual ICollection<StaffMember> StaffMembers { get; set; }
public Complex()
{
this.Id = System.Guid.NewGuid();
this.Units = new HashSet<Unit>();
this.StaffMembers = new HashSet<StaffMember>();
}
public void AddUnit(Unit unit)
{
Units.Add(unit);
}
public void AddStaff(StaffMember staffMember)
{
StaffMembers.Add(staffMember);
}
}
and
public class Owner
{
[Key]
public Guid Id { get; set; }
public string Name { get; set; }
public Guid ContactInfoId { get; set; }
[ForeignKey("ContactInfoId")]
public ContactInfo ContactInfo { get; set; }
public ICollection<StaffMember> Employees { get; set; }
public ICollection<Complex> Complexes { get; set; }
public Owner()
{
this.Id = System.Guid.NewGuid();
this.Employees = new HashSet<StaffMember>();
this.Complexes = new HashSet<Complex>();
}
public void AddEmployee(StaffMember employee)
{
Employees.Add(employee);
}
public void AddComplex(Complex complex)
{
Complexes.Add(complex);
}
}
I'm trying to add a new owner in the following code:
if (ModelState.IsValid)
{
Owner newOwner = new Owner();
ContactInfo newContactInfo = new ContactInfo();
Address newAddress = new Address();
newAddress.Address1 = viewModel.ContactInfo.Address.Address1;
newAddress.Address2 = viewModel.ContactInfo.Address.Address2;
newAddress.City = viewModel.ContactInfo.Address.City;
newAddress.State = viewModel.ContactInfo.Address.State;
newAddress.Zip = viewModel.ContactInfo.Address.Zip;
newContactInfo.Address = newAddress;
newContactInfo.Email = viewModel.ContactInfo.Email;
newContactInfo.Phone1 = viewModel.ContactInfo.Phone1;
newContactInfo.Phone2 = viewModel.ContactInfo.Phone2;
newOwner.Name = viewModel.Name;
newOwner.ContactInfo = newContactInfo;
using (REMSDAL dal = new REMSDAL())
{
dal.Owners.Add(newOwner);
var result = await dal.SaveChangesAsync();
if (result > 0)
{
viewModel.ActionStatusMessageViewModel.StatusMessage = "Owner " + viewModel.Name + " added.";
viewModel.Name = "";
return View(viewModel);
}
}
}
...but getting this error:
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'OwnerId', table 'REMS.dbo.Complexes'; column does not allow nulls. UPDATE fails.
The statement has been terminated.
How can I be getting an error regarding Complexes when I'm trying to add an Owner?

}
catch(Exception)
{
return Json(new MyJsonData()
{
Success = false,
Script = "alert('Good didn't add');",
Html = ""
}
);
}
}
with what name you are saving the cookies you can retrieve like this let say userid u want to get rest what you have wriiten will work:
if (this.ControllerContext.HttpContext.Request.Cookies.AllKeys.Contains("Userid"))
{
HttpCookie cookie = this.ControllerContext.HttpContext.Request.Cookies["Userid"];
// retrieve cookie data here
}
how to call in view :
Viewbag.userid = #Request.Cookies["Userid"].value
In order to read a cookie client-side it needs to be created with the HttpOnly flag set to false.
Please go thorugh the below already asked question.
MVC Access stored cookie
I am testing my controller code using IOC Unity. The issue is with the initialisation of the model that I am passing to constructor of my controller.
Here is my code in the test project
[TestMethod]
public void TestHomeControllerIndexMethod()
{
HomeController controller = new HomeController(new stubPeopleService());
ViewResult result = controller.Index() as ViewResult;
Assert.AreEqual(0, result);
}
Below is the code of the stubPeopleService that I have created which I pass to my controller constructor above
public class stubPeopleService : IPeople
{
public int Age
{
get;
set;
}
public string BirthPlace
{
get;
set;
}
public DateTime DateOfBirth
{
get;
set;
}
public int GetAge(DateTime reference, DateTime birthday)
{
int age = reference.Year - birthday.Year;
if (reference < birthday.AddYears(age)) age--;
return age + 1;
}
public int Height
{
get;
set;
}
public List<People> listPeople { get { return GetPeople(); } }
public string Name
{
get;
set;
}
public int Weight
{
get;
set;
}
private List<People> GetPeople()
{
List<People> list = new List<People>();
list.Add(new People
{
Name = "Ranjit Menon",
DateOfBirth = DateTime.Today,
BirthPlace = "London",
Age = 25,
Height = 175,
Weight = 85
});
return list.OrderBy(x => x.Name).ToList();
}
}
When I debug my test , I notice that the all the properties do not contain any value. The only property that contains value is listPeople property. The listpeople property does initialise the other properties but throws an object cannot be created error.Let me know if I am doing the test correctly. I need to do a test initialising the model with some values.
Code from my home controller
private IPeople peopleService;
public HomeController(IPeople people)
{
this.peopleService = people;
}
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View(peopleService);
}
Please find the IPeople interface below
public interface IPeople
{
int Age { get; set; }
string BirthPlace { get; set; }
DateTime DateOfBirth { get; set; }
int GetAge(DateTime reference, DateTime birthday);
int Height { get; set; }
List<People> listPeople { get; }
string Name { get; set; }
int Weight { get; set; }
}
I have a model which holds some details about an account (Name, Id etc) and then it has a type called Transaction, which holds information about the currently selected account transaction. A transaction can then have many transaction lines. So I have a List<TransactionsLine> property.
I am trying to set the value of a Drop down list, using the model, the value being in the List<> property. At the moment, there can, and must, only be one item in the list.
#Html.DropDownListFor(x=>x.Transaction.TransactionLines[0].CategoryId, Model.TransactionReferences.Categories, new {#onchange="populateSubCategory()"})
However, when I run this, the list defaults to the first item in the list.
In debug mode, when I hover the mouse over x.Transaction.TransactionLines[0].CategoryId, it doesn't show me a value. But when hover over the collection, Model.TransactionReferences.Categories, I see it has a valid list. It just won't set the selected value.
Am I doing this wrong?
It works in other drop downs I use, BUT the select value is in the top most level of my model:
#Html.DropDownListFor(x => x.Transaction.ThirdPartyId, Model.TransactionReferences.ThirdParties, new { #class = "cmbThirdParty form-control", #onchange = "populateDefaults()" })
That one works fine.
Note, doing it manually, works:
<select class="form-control" id="cmbCategory" onchange="populateSubCategory()">
<option value="0">Select a One</option>
#foreach (var cat in Model.TransactionReferences.Categories)
{
//var selected = cat.Value == Model.Transaction.TransactionLines[0].CategoryId.ToString() ? "selected" : "";
<option value="#cat.Value">#cat.Text</option>
}
</select>
But doesn't feel like the best way to do it.
Model:
The main model passed to the view:
public class TransactionModel
{
public int BankAccountId { get; set; }
public string BankAccountName { get; set; }
public TransactionContainer Transaction { get; set; }
public TransactionReferenceModel TransactionReferences { get; set; }
public DateTime DefaultDate { get; set; }
}
The TransactionReferenceModel holds all my 'reference' data used to populate drop down lists:
public class TransactionReferenceModel
{
public List<SelectListItem> TransactionTypes { get; set; }
public List<SelectListItem> EntryTypes { get; set; }
public List<SelectListItem> SubCategories { get; set; }
public List<SelectListItem> Categories { get; set; }
public List<SelectListItem> ThirdParties { get; set; }
public List<SelectListItem> CostCentres { get; set; }
}
The TransactionContainer model holds allthe main details about the selected transaction:
public class TransactionContainer
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public int AccountId { get; set; }
public int TransactionTypeId { get; set; }
public string TransactionType { get; set; }
public int EntryTypeId { get; set; }
public string EntryType { get; set; }
[DisplayFormat(ApplyFormatInEditMode = true, DataFormatString = "{0:dd/dd/yyyy}")]
public DateTime TransactionDate { get; set; }
public string ThirdParty { get; set; }
public int ThirdPartyId { get; set; }
public string Account { get; set; }
[DisplayFormat(ApplyFormatInEditMode = true, DataFormatString = "C2")]
public decimal Amount { get; set; }
public string Notes { get; set; }
public string CategoryDisplay { get; set; }
public string CostCentreDisplay { get; set; }
public decimal RunningBalance { get; set; }
public List<TransactionLine> TransactionLines { get; set; }
}
That then holds a list of transaction lines that make up the transaction. The transaction line holds the property I am trying to set the drop down to, which is CategoryId:
public class TransactionLine
{
public int Id { get; set; }
public int TransactionId { get; set; }
public int? CostCentreId { get; set; }
public string CostCentre { get; set; }
public int SubCategoryId { get; set; }
public string SubCategory { get; set; }
public int CategoryId { get; set; }
public string Category { get; set; }
[DisplayFormat(ApplyFormatInEditMode = true, DataFormatString = "C2")]
public decimal Amount { get; set; }
public string Notes { get; set; }
}
And here is how I am populating my model and sending it to the view:
public ActionResult EditTransaction(int? transactionId, int? bankAccountId)
{
// Create the main view object
var model = new TransactionModel
{
Transaction = new TransactionContainer
{
TransactionLines = new List<TransactionLine>()
}
};
if (transactionId != null) // This is an Edit, as opposed to an Add
{
var item = new TransactionService(currentUserId).GetTransaction(transactionId.Value);
// Populate the Reference object used to populate drop downs.
model.TransactionReferences = PopulateReferenceDate(model.TransactionReferences, item.TransactionLines[0].SubCategoryId);
model.BankAccountId = item.AccountId;
model.BankAccountName = item.Account.FullName;
model.DefaultDate = Session["DefaultDate"] != null
? DateTime.Parse(Session["DefaultDate"].ToString())
: DateTime.UtcNow;
model.Transaction.AccountId = item.AccountId;
model.Transaction.Amount = item.Amount;
model.Transaction.TransactionLines.Add(new TransactionLine
{
Id = item.TransactionLines[0].Id,
CategoryId = item.TransactionLines[0].SubCategory.CategoryId,
CostCentreId = item.TransactionLines[0].CostCentreId,
Notes = item.TransactionLines[0].Notes,
Amount = item.TransactionLines[0].Amount,
SubCategoryId = item.TransactionLines[0].SubCategoryId,
TransactionId = model.Transaction.Id
});
model.Transaction.EntryTypeId = item.EntryTypeId;
model.Transaction.Id = transactionId.Value;
model.Transaction.Notes = item.Notes;
model.Transaction.ThirdPartyId = item.ThirdPartyId;
model.Transaction.TransactionDate = item.TransactionDate;
model.Transaction.TransactionTypeId = item.TransactionTypeId;
}
else
{
// Populate the bank account details
var bank = new BankAccountService(currentUserId).GetBankAccountById(bankAccountId.Value);
model.TransactionReferences = PopulateReferenceDate(model.TransactionReferences, null);
model.BankAccountId = bank.Id;
model.BankAccountName = bank.FullName;
model.Transaction.TransactionLines.Add(new TransactionLine
{
TransactionId = model.Transaction.Id // Link the transaction line to the transaction.
});
var transactionDate = Session["DefaultDate"] != null
? DateTime.Parse(Session["DefaultDate"].ToString())
: DateTime.UtcNow;
// Populate the object to hold the Transaction data, so that we can use it and return it in the view.
model.Transaction.TransactionDate = transactionDate;
}
return View(model);
}
I think you should use the SelectList Constructor in your view, in order to indicate the default value, like this:
#Html.DropDownListFor(
x => x.Transaction.TransactionsLines[0].CategoryId,
new SelectList(Model.TransactionReferences.Categories, "Value", "Text", Model.Transaction.TransactionsLines[0].CategoryId)
)
You are not restricted to use List< SelectListItem > for the collections. You can use a List of a specific class also.
This is the Controller Action Method code:
public class HomeController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index()
{
var m = new AccountModel();
m.Transaction = new Transaction();
m.Transaction.TransactionsLines = new List<TransactionsLine>();
m.Transaction.TransactionsLines.Add(new TransactionsLine() { CategoryId = 2 });
m.TransactionReferences = new TransactionReferences();
m.TransactionReferences.Categories = new List<SelectListItem>()
{ new SelectListItem() { Text = "Cat1", Value = "1" },
new SelectListItem() { Text = "Cat2", Value = "2" },
new SelectListItem() { Text = "Cat3", Value = "3" }
};
return View(m);
}
}
I'm newbie to MVC architecture.When I'm trying to update, its showing error ,Its totally strange but the data is updating.
The model item passed into the dictionary is of type 'CMS.Domain.Models.Site', but this dictionary requires a model item of type 'CMS.Web.ViewModels.SiteModel'.'.

I'm struggling to resolve this , please help.
Check your View's model declaration. It is expecting an enumerable list (IEnumerable<CMS.Web.ViewModels.SiteModel>), but you are passing it a single instance of CMS.Web.ViewModels.SiteModel
