Custom Route Not Working in mvc 4 - asp.net-mvc

I have created one custom route
routes.MapRoute("Exams",
"Exams/{id}/{name}",
new { controller = "Exam", action = "SingleExam", id = "", name = (string) null },
new[] { "MockTests.FrontEnd.Controllers" }
);
For this I am creating link as
http://localhost:61575/Exams/12/maharashtra+mba+common+entrance+test
But his gives error as
The resource cannot be found
SingleExam code
public ActionResult SingleExam(int id,string name)
{
return View();
}
Other Routes
routes.MapRoute(
"Default",
"{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { controller = "User", action = "Register", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
new[] { "MockTests.FrontEnd.Controllers" }
);
What wrong I am doing ?

ASP.NET MVC Overriding Index action with optional parameter

I want to accept /User/ and /User/213123
Where 213123 is a parameter (user_id)
Here is my RouteConfig.cs:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "user",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{username}",
defaults: new { controller = "User", action = "Index", username = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
And my UserController.cs:
public ActionResult Index()
{
ViewData["Message"] = "user index";
return View();
}
[Route("user/{username}")]
public ActionResult Index(string username)
{
ViewData["Message"] = "!" + username + "!";
return View();
}
This works in .net-core 1.0 but not in mvc5. What am I missing?
Thank you
EDIT:
Having just this in my UserController.cs also doesn't work (returns 404):
public ActionResult Index(string username)
{
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(username))
{
ViewData["Message"] = "Hello " + username;
}
else
{
ViewData["Message"] = "user index";
}
return View();
}
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.
Requested URL: /user/asd
EDIT2:
Updated RouteConfig.cs:
routes.MapRoute(
"userParam", "user/{username}",
new { controller = "user", action = "IndexByUsername" },
new { username = #"\w+" }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "user",
url: "user",
defaults: new { controller = "User", action = "Index"}
);
/User/ now calls IndexByUsername with Index as the username
/User/asd still returns 404
EDIT4: Current code:
RouteConfig.cs:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index" }
);
routes.MapRoute("userParam", "user/{username}", new { controller = "user", action = "Index"});
routes.MapRoute("user", "{controller}/{action}/{username}", new { controller = "User", action = "Index", username = UrlParameter.Optional });
UserController.cs:
public class UserController : Controller
{
public ActionResult Index(string username)
{
if (!String.IsNullOrEmpty(username))
{
ViewData["Message"] = "Hello " + username;
}
else
{
ViewData["Message"] = "user index";
}
return View();
}
}
You need only one action method with the signature
public ActionResult Index(string username)
and in that method you can check if the value of username is null or not.
Then you route definitiosn needs to be (note the user route needs to be placed before the default route)
routes.MapRoute(
name: "user",
url: "user/{username}",
defaults: new { controller = "User", action = "Index", username = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

How to display only name in url instead of id in mvc.net using routing

I am getting url like http://localhost:49671/TestRoutes/Display?f=hi&i=2
I want it like http://localhost:49671/TestRoutes/Display/hi
I call it from Index method.
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Index(int? e )
{
// return View("Display", new { f = "hi", i = 2 });
return RedirectToAction("Display", new { f = "hi", i = 2 });
}
Index view
#model Try.Models.TestRoutes
#using (Html.BeginForm())
{
Model.e = 5 ;
<input type="submit" value="Create" class="btn btn-default" />
}
Display Action method
// [Route("TestRoutes/{s}")]
public ActionResult Display(string s, int i)
{
return View();
}
Route config file
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
"Professional", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{id}/{name}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "TestRoutes", action = "Display", s = UrlParameter.Optional, i = UrlParameter.Optional
});
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional
});
You need to change your route definition to
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Professional",
url: "TestRoutes/Display/{s}/{i}",
default: new { controller = "TestRoutes", action = "Display", i = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
so that the names of the placeholders match the names of the parameters in your method. Note also that only the last parameter can be marked as UrlParameter.Optional (otherwise the RoutingEngine cannot match up the segments and the values will be added as query string parameters, not route values)
Then you need to change the controller method to match the route/method parameters
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Index(int? e )
{
return RedirectToAction("Display", new { s = "hi", i = 2 }); // s not f
}
change your route as
routes.MapRoute(
"Professional", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{name}", // URL with parameters
new
{
controller = "TestRoutes",
action = "Display"
} // Parameter defaults
);
and your action as
public ActionResult Display(string name)
{
//action goes here
}
Remove the maproute code:
routes.MapRoute(
"Professional", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{id}/{name}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "TestRoutes", action = "Display", s = UrlParameter.Optional, i = UrlParameter.Optional
});
Use attribute routing code:
[Route("TestRoutes/{s}/{i?}")]
public ActionResult Display(string s, int? i)
{
return View();
}
You can also try using Attribute Routing. You can control your routes easier with attribute routing.
Firstly change your RouteConfig.cs like that:
public class RouteConfig
{
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapMvcAttributeRoutes();
//routes.MapRoute(
// name: "Default",
// url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
// defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
//);
}
}
After that change your controller files like that:
namespace YourProjectName.Controllers
{
[RoutePrefix("Home")]
[Route("{action}/{id=0}")]
public class HomeController : Controller
{
[Route("Index")]
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
[Route("ChangeAddress/{addressID}")]
public ActionResult ChangeAddress(int addressID)
{
//your codes to change address
}
}
You can also learn more about Attribute Routing in this post:
https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/webdev/2013/10/17/attribute-routing-in-asp-net-mvc-5/
Another way to solve this problem is to put the proper route before the default route, as follows:
routes.MapRoute(name: "MyRouteName", url: "Id", defaults: new { controller= "Home", action = "Index",id= Id });
Default route:
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{Id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index",id= Id }
);

Url Routing Help Asp.net Mvc

I have three url types. These:
first: http://localhost/
second: http://localhost/X/
third: http://localhost/X/Y/
Examples Url:
http://localhost/test/
http://localhost/test/details/
first:
routes.MapRoute(
"Default",
"{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new
{
controller = "Home",
action = "Index",
id = UrlParameter.Optional
}
);
public class HomeController : Controller
{
// GET: /Home/
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
}
second:
routes.MapRoute(
"Module",
"{module_name}/{controller}/{action}",
new
{
controller = "Module",
action = "Index",
module_name = UrlParameter.Optional
}
);
public class ModuleController : Controller
{
//
// GET: /Module/
public ActionResult Index(string modul_name)
{
return View();
}
}
third:
routes.MapRoute(
"ModuleDetails",
"{module_name}/{details_param}/{controller}/{action}",
new
{
controller = "ModuleDetails",
action = "Index",
module_name = UrlParameter.Optional,
details_param = UrlParameter.Optional
}
);
public class ModuleDetailsController : Controller
{
//
// GET: /ModuleDetails/
public ActionResult Index(string modul_name, string details_param)
{
return View();
}
}
in this instance;
http://localhost/X/
response: "Home", "Index"
but;
http://localhost/X/
response: Application in the server error. Resource Not Found.
http://localhost/X/Y/
response: Application in the server error. Resource Not Found.
How can I do?
Thanks, best regards..
http://localhost/X/
response: Application in the server error. Resource Not Found.
This happens because each of your routes specifies at least 2 mandatory parameters.
Try to add this one:
routes.MapRoute(
"Default",
"{controller}/{action}",
new
{
controller = "Home",
action = "Index"
}
);
that's right friends..
routes.MapRoute(
"Default", // Route name
"", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "Home", action = "Index" } // Parameter defaults
);
routes.MapRoute(
"Module",
"{modul_name}",
new { controller = "Modul", action = "Index", modul_name = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
routes.MapRoute(
"Page",
"{modul_name}/{page_name}",
new { controller = "Page", action = "Index", modul_name = UrlParameter.Optional, page_name = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

ASP MVC getting GET request instead of POST

I have next specific map routes
routes.MapRoute(
"MyPagePost",
"URL-Up/{name}",
new { controller = "MyController", action = "MyPostAction" },
new { httpMethod = new HttpMethodConstraint("POST") }
);
routes.MapRoute(
"MyPageGet",
"URL-Up/{name}",
new { controller = "MyController", action = "MyGetAction" },
new { name = "[A-Za-z].+", httpMethod = new HttpMethodConstraint("GET") }
);
my default controller looks like
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{culture}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", culture = "en", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { culture = #"[a-zA-Z]{2}" }
);
and the issue is next:
my get MyPageGet route show a page with include FORM with POST reqvest to MyPagePost route, but on a first call I am getting the same GET request and see in URL other extra param ?culture=de. Moreover, with or without this parameter, second call it working fine via MyPagePost route.
UPDATE:
In Chrome or fiddler Logs I see that reqvest to URL-Up/Bla-Bla has 302 status and response heared is URL-Up/Bla-Bla?culture=de. Why it can't be processed ?
just try it with
#using(Html.BeginRouteForm("MyPagePost",FormMethod.Post))
{
<input type="submit" value="Submit"/>
}
The routes in your post working for me in both html.beginform and html.beginrouteform on the first time.
i try it with the following routes and action methods
routes.MapRoute(
"MyPagePost",
"URL-Up/{name}",
new { controller = "Home", action = "PostAction" },
new { name="[A-Za-z].+", httpMethod = new HttpMethodConstraint("POST") }
);
routes.MapRoute(
"MyPageGet",
"URL-Up/{name}",
new { controller = "Home", action = "GetAction" },
new { name = "[A-Za-z].+", httpMethod = new HttpMethodConstraint("GET") }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{culture}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", culture = "en", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { culture = #"[a-zA-Z]{2}" }
);
public ActionResult GetAction()
{
return View();
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult PostAction()
{
return View();
}

Different default routes for different roles

Is it possible to create a different default route for a different user role?
e.g.
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
"Default", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
);
routes.MapRoute(
"Admin", // Route name
"{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
new { controller = "totalrewardstatement", action = "Details", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
);
}
Have the default route above for normal users but use the admin one if an admin user logs in?
Role based routing is not supported in MVC. What you do is have default controller which checks for the roles and redirect to that controller
public ActionResult Index()
{
if (User.IsInRole("Supervisor"))
{
return RedirectToAction("Index", "InvitationS");
}
return View();
}
http://forums.asp.net/t/1994888.aspx?role+based+routing+asp+net+mvc
Using a custom RouteConstraint did the trick for me on mvc 5.
public class RoleConstraint : IRouteConstraint
{
public bool Match
(
HttpContextBase httpContext,
Route route,
string parameterName,
RouteValueDictionary values,
RouteDirection routeDirection
)
{
return httpContext.User.IsInRole(parameterName) ;
}
}
RouteConfig.cs
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Reader_Home",
url: "",
defaults: new { controller = "Reader", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { reader_role = new RoleConstraint() }
);
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Author_Home",
url: "",
defaults: new { controller = "Publication", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
constraints: new { author_role = new RoleConstraint() }
);
I'm using the parameterName (author_role and reader_role) as the role name to check for simplification.
