I am creating a friendly URL so i have crete route in routeconfig file as follows
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Auth", action = "LogIn", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "ShowUser", // Route name
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
defaults: new { controller = "UserGroupEdit", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
);
}
and action link as follows
View
But it is not working giving runtime error "The resource cannot be found."
Default route and you custom route have identical structure, so default one will always be used because it is declared first.
Im guessing you are getting error because in code you are referring to ShowUser, but instead you should use name of the controller: UserGroupEdit.
View
If you want a friendly route you can do something like this
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "ShowUser", // Route name
url: "ShowUser/index/{id}", // URL with parameters
defaults: new { controller = "UserGroupEdit", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Auth", action = "LogIn", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
}
in your cshtml
#Url.Action( "Index", "UserGroupEdit")
You can use UrlHelper.RouteUrl helper method which allows you to specify the route name:
View
RouteConfig:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "ShowUser",
url: "ShowUser/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "UserGroupEdit", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

I have a Login controller with an Index view that I want rendered at the url http://sitename/login. It works with I browse to http://sitename/login/index but I want to omit index from the URL. Here's my route config (default):
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Dashboards", action = "Dashboard_1", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
}
.. and the controller:
public class LoginController : Controller
{
// GET: Login
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
}
If you had left the Default route alone, it would do what you ask. You just have to set the default value for the action route value as Index.
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
Alternatively, you can insert an additional route to cover your Login controller.
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Login",
url: "login/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Login", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Dashboards", action = "Dashboard_1", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
A third option is to rename your LoginController.Index method to LoginController.Dashboard_1, since that is your default action name for every controller in the application.
I have created multiple routes with different route name in MVC.
routes.MapRoute(
name: "PostDetails",
url: "Ad/{id}/{item}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Post" }
);
I am calling route from a javascript function to redirect to this route
var url = '#Url.RouteUrl("PostDetails", new { id = "_id_", item = "_name_" })';
url = url.replace("_id_", id).replace("_name_", name);
window.location.href = url;
This is giving an error with 404.
You must add your route before Default route in the RouteConfig like:
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "PostDetails",
url: "Ad/{id}/{item}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Post" }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
}
I have home controller and Index action method. The below url works
http://localhost/home/index
Will it be possible to make it work like below
http://localhost/index.aspx
I am trying below code in Global.asax but does not works
routes.MapPageRoute("MyPage", "create.aspx", "~/home/create");
Route Config
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapPageRoute("MyPage", "create.aspx", "~/home/create");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Customized",
url: "{action}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Default", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Reports",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Reports", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Default", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
}
You should use MapRoute() instead of MapPageRoute(), as you are still referring to an MVC controller/action:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default2",
url: "index.aspx",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
PS: Remember to register the new route before other ones which may eventually interfere with it.
You can't MapPageRoute for non static content as you are doing. If you wan't to hide the Controller for your route the Customized already do this. If you are mixing MVC + WebForms you should fallow this guide to se how config your routes.
How to: Define Routes for Web Forms Applications
I'm trying to get an XML RPC service going as illustrated in the following article:
http://www.cookcomputing.com/blog/archives/Implementing%20an%20xml-rpc-service-with-asp-net-mvc
Everything works great, except the routing. It is a similar problem to what has been discussed in this SO question MVC route conflicts with service route
My code for RegisterRoutes look like this:
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.Add(new Route("wlw/publish", new WLWRouteHandler()));
}
When I put this line
routes.Add(new Route("wlw/publish", new WLWRouteHandler()));
before MapRoutes I can access the service but my normal routes does not work. I tried adding a fourth parameter:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { controller = "regex-for-!=-wlw" }
);
but then I get a 403 The Web server is configured to not list the contents of this directory error.
What am I doing wrong?
A good solution for this can be found here : http://weblogs.asp.net/jasonconway/archive/2009/10/23/include-and-exclude-constraints-in-asp-net-mvc.aspx
I changed MapRoute to the following:
routes.MapRoute(
"Default",
"{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { controller = "home", action = "index", id = "" },
new { controller = new ListConstraint(ListConstraintType.Exclude, "wlw") }
);
Can I set up a route that will get mapped from a root-level URL like this?
http://localhost:49658/
I'm using the VS2010 built-in web server.
Attempting to set up a route with a blank or a single-slash URL string doesn't work:
routes.MapRoute(
"Default",
"/",
new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
);
It results in the error "The route URL cannot start with a '/' or '~' character and it cannot contain a '?' character.". Thanks in advance! My entire route definition is here:
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
"EditingTitles", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{startingLetter}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "Admin", action = "Index", startingLetter = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
);
routes.MapRoute(
"Default", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
);
}
What are you trying to achieve here... a URL that looks like this? http://www.acme.com/ ? Because if you are, the default route will achieve that when none of the parameters are specified.
// Default Route:
routes.MapRoute(
"Default", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = String.Empty } // Parameter defaults
);
Using ASPNET MVC5:
RouteConfig.cs file:
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Homepage",
url: "",
defaults: new { controller = "Content", action = "Index" }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "foo",
url: "bar",
defaults: new { controller = "Content", action = "Index" }
);
routes.MapMvcAttributeRoutes();
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{title}",
defaults: new { controller = "Content", action = "Details", title = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
}
Plus:
If you wishes to redirect your homepage to another route automatically, like "http://www.yoursite.com/" to "http://www.yoursite.com/bar", just use the method RedirectToRoute():
public class ContentController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index()
{
return RedirectToRoute("foo");
}
}
