Resource can not be found in Asp.NET although path is correct?

I am passing values to the action method using the ajax call. My action method name is TagTargets and this method has three parameters. I am also giving the exact path also but getting the error The resource cannot be found.
//Ajax Call to get targets Data
function TargetsData() {
var realTags = $('#Raw_Tag_List').val();
var calculatedTags = $('#Calculated_Tag_List').val();
var manulTags = $('#Manual_Tag_List').val();
$.ajax({
url: 'TagTargets',
type: 'Post',
contentType: 'application/json',
dataType: 'json',
data: { 'RealTags': realTags, 'CalculatedTags': calculatedTags, 'ManulTags':manulTags},
success: function (data) {
if (data.success) {
alert('Ok')
}
else {
alert('Not ok');
}
}
});
debugger;
}
//Action Method
[HttpPost]
public JsonResult TagTargets(List<string> RealTags, List<string> CalculatedTags, List<string> ManulTags)
{
return Json(true);
}

change your url to a valid url.
url: "#Url.Action("TagTargets","ControllerName");",

Passing A Single Objects Into An MVC Controller Method Using jQuery Ajax

I'm trying to post a single object data to an MVC Controler using JQuery, Below are my codes.
//declare of type Object of GroupData
var GroupData = {};
//pass each data into the object
GroupData.groupName = $('#groupName').val();
GroupData.narration = $('#narration').val();
GroupData.investmentCode = $('#investmentCode').val();
GroupData.isNew = isNewItem;
//send to server
$.ajax({
url: "/Admin/SaveContributionInvestGroup",
type: "POST",
contentType: "application/json;charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
data: JSON.stringify({ GroupData: JSON.stringify(GroupData) }),
success: function (res) {
alertSuccess("Success", res.Message);
//hide modal
$('#product-options').modal('hide');
hide_waiting();
},
error: function (res) {
alertError("Error", res.Message);
}
});
Below is my controller.
[HttpPost]
public JsonResult SaveContributionInvestGroup(ContributionInvestmentGroup GroupData)
{
ClsResponse response = new ClsResponse();
ClsContributionInvestmentGroup clsClsContributionInvestmentGroup = new ClsContributionInvestmentGroup();
var userID = (int)Session["userID"];
var sessionID = (Session["sessionID"]).ToString();
if (contributionGroupData != null)
{
//get the data from the cient that was passed
ContributionInvestmentGroup objData = new ContributionInvestmentGroup()
{
contributionInvestmentGroupID = 0,
groupName = GroupData.groupName,
narration = GroupData.narration,
investmentCode = GroupData.investmentCode,
isNew = GroupData.isNew
};
response = clsClsContributionInvestmentGroup.initiateNewContributionInvestmentGroup(sessionID, objData);
}
else
{
response.IsException = true;
response.IsSucess = false;
response.Message = "A system exception occurred kindly contact your Administrator.";
}
return Json(new
{
response.IsSucess,
response.Message
});
}
The issue is, the data is not been posted to the controller, the controller receives a null object.
Kindly assist, would really appreciate your effort, thanks.

Try Like this:
//send to server
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "/Admin/SaveContributionInvestGroup",
dataType: "json",
data: GroupData,
success: function (res) {
alertSuccess("Success", res.Message);
//hide modal
$('#product-options').modal('hide');
hide_waiting();
},
error: function (res) {
alertError("Error", res.Message);
}
});

in your controller your dont have custom binding to bind JSON to your model thats why you get null in you parameter.
instead just post it as query, try simply changes your ajax option like so:
{
...
contentType: "application/x-www-form-urlencoded", //default:
...,
data: $.param(GroupData),
...
}
and perhaps property names are case sensitive so you will need to change your javascript model's name

ASP.NET MVC POST Route does not point to the correct Method

I´ve got a problem with my current mvc project.
I´m using an ajax call to send new comments to the server but the method does not even get called.
My js code:
$("#answer_button").click(function () {
showLoadingTab();
var actionUrl = '#Url.Action("AnswerThread", "Threads")';
var threadId = $("#threadId").val();
var msg = $("#answer_msg").val();
alert(actionUrl);
alert(msg);
alert(threadId);
$.ajax({
url: actionUrl,
type: "POST",
data: "Message=" + msg + "&threadId=" + threadId,
success: function (msg) {
hideLoadingTab();
location.reload();
},
error: function () {
alert("Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten.");
hideLoadingTab();
}
});
});
as you see I´ve alerted the url, msg and threadId and they are all correct. url: "/Threads/AnswerThread", msg: "test", threadId: 1.
I´ve already tried to put a breakpoint inside the AnswerThread method but it does not get called. The "AnswerThread" method is inside the "ThreadsController" and looks like this:
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult AnswerThread(string Message, int threadId)
{
var userId = User.Identity.GetUserId();
using (var db = new UnitOfWork(new BlogContext()))
{
db.Posts.Add(new Post()
{
Message = Message,
PublishTime = DateTime.Now,
ThreadId = threadId,
UserId = userId
});
db.Complete();
}
return PartialView("/Views/Partial/Clear.cshtml");
}
That´s exactly the same way I did it in the backend controllers but there it just works fine.
I hope somebody can help me..
UPDATE:
Made some changes just to try if any other way works.
Change1 js:
var data = {
threadId: threadId,
Message: msg
};
$.ajax({
url: actionUrl,
type: "POST",
content: "application/json; charset=utf-8",
dataType: "json",
data: data,
success: function (msg) {
if (msg.success == true) {
hideLoadingTab();
location.reload();
}
else
{
alert("Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten: " + msg.error);
}
},
error: function () {
alert("Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten.");
hideLoadingTab();
}
});
Change 2 c#:
[HttpPost]
public JsonResult AnswerThread([System.Web.Http.FromBody]PostDataModel data)
{
var userId = User.Identity.GetUserId();
string error = "";
bool success = false;
try
{
using (var db = new UnitOfWork(new BlogContext()))
{
db.Posts.Add(new Post()
{
Message = data.Message,
PublishTime = DateTime.Now,
ThreadId = data.threadId,
UserId = userId
});
success = true;
db.Complete();
}
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
error = ex.Message;
}
return Json(String.Format("'Success':'{0}', 'Error':'{1}'", success, error));
I tried this now with and without the "[FromBody]" statement.
Oh yes and I´ve added the DataModel like this:
public class PostDataModel
{
public int threadId { get; set; }
public string Message { get; set; }
}
and I also tried to manually configure the pointed route.
routes.MapRoute(
name: "AnswerThread",
url: "threads/answer",
defaults: new { controller = "Threads", action = "AnswerThread" }
);
The "actionUrl" variable in js get´s changed to /threads/answer but I´m always getting 500 Internal Server Error. When I put a breakpoint inside the method it does not stop at any point of the ajax call.

In the Chrome Dev Tools at the "Network" tab it says to me that there is a parameter called "id" which is null which causes to this 500 internal server error. I tried to find out more information about this but the error does not tell me where this parameter is located.
I´ve got no parameter called "id" inside this method or the data model so where does this come from?
Solution:
My Routes mapping was bad. I first mapped the route /threads/{id} and THEN did /threads/answer so when the /threads/answer got called it thought "answer" is an id so it tried to enter the "Index" method. So for my particular problem (and maybe for some other guys having the same issue) the solution was just to put the mapping of the /threads/answer route in front of the /threads/{id} route and it worked.

Please check your parameter types, in controller threadId is int type and from ajax call you are passing string type.
In Js
$("#answer_button").click(function () {
showLoadingTab();
var actionUrl = '#Url.Action("AnswerThread", "Home")';
var threadId = parseInt($("#threadId").val());
var msg = "Answer message";
alert(threadId);
$.ajax({
url: actionUrl,
type: "POST",
data: { Message: msg, threadId: threadId },
success: function (msg) {
hideLoadingTab();
location.reload();
},
error: function () {
alert("Ein Fehler ist aufgetreten.");
hideLoadingTab();
}
});
});
In Controller
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult AnswerThread(string Message, int threadId)
{
return Json("Data");
}

Ajax call showing error cant debug

this is how the javascript looks like
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function () {
$('#loginButton').click(function () {
//this.disabled = true;
debugger;
var data = {
"userid": $("#username").val(),
"password": $("#password").val()
};
$.ajax({
url: "/Account/LoginPost",
type: "POST",
data: JSON.stringify(data),
dataType: "json",
contentType: "application/json",
success: function (response) {
if (response.Success) {
$.get("#Url.Action("Search", "Home")", function (data) {
$('.container').html(data);
});
}
else
window.location.href = "#Url.Action("Index", "Home")";
},
error: function () {
alert('Login Fail!!!');
}
});
});
});
I am getting the alert('Login fail') also debugger not getting hit.
I am using jquery 1.9.1 and have included unobstrusive
my controller is this as you can i am passing string values not object values
to the controller so stringify is justified here
[HttpPost]
public JsonResult LoginPost(string userid, string password)
{
using (someentities wk = new someentities())
{
var LoginUser = wk.tblUsers.Where(a => a.Username.Equals(userid)&&a.Password.Equals(password)).FirstOrDefault();
if (LoginUser != null)
{
FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(userid,false);
Session["Username"] = LoginUser.Username;
Session["Password"] = LoginUser.Password;
Session["Name"] = LoginUser.Name;
return Json(new { Success = true }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
else
{
TempData["Login"] = "Please Enter Correct Login Details";
return Json(new { Success = false }, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
}
}
// If we got this far, something failed, redisplay form
}
when page is loading these error are shown
$(..) live is not a valid function in
(anonymous function) # jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.js:115
(anonymous function) # jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.js:163

take a look to the success function
success: function (response) {
if (response.Success) {
$.get("#Url.Action("Search", "Home")", function (data) {
$('.container').html(data);
});
}
else
window.location.href = "#Url.Action("Index", "Home")";
}
you are using multiple ", combine it with the single one ', this is a syntax error, try to check the code on an editor such as Atom, to avoid this kind of errors

Stringify converts an object to a string. Have you tried passing data an object instead of a string? Try replacing JSON.stringify(data), with data?

MVC Web Api Get Data with Ajax

I'm trying to get all my posts from the database to be displayed with the help of ajax or getjson but can't get it to work. Using mvc web api and I have a view where I want to display it. There is a method working called post so nothing wrong with my routing etc.
Code for my views js-script, I want to display all posts with the help of my mvc api controller and ajax in a div called #userMessage.
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#btnGetPosts').click(function() {
jQuery.support.cors = true;
var recieverID = $('#RecieverID').val();
$.ajax({
url: "/api/Posts/GetPosts" ,
//data: (?)
type: "GET",
dataType: "jsonp",
error: function(request, status, error) {
alert(request.responseText);
},
success: function(data) {
alert(data);
}
});
});
});
my controller method to get all the posts
// GET: api/Posts
public IEnumerable<Post> GetPosts()
{
//querystring is made to get the recieverID, it's also reachable in the view. //("#RecieverID")
string querystring = HttpContext.Current.Request.QueryString["Username"];
// Converts Username querystring to a user-id
int id = UserRepository.GetUserId(querystring);
// uses linq to get a specific user post (all posts)
var userPost = PostRepository.GetSpecificUserPosts(id);
return userPost;
}
my PostRepository.GetSpecifiedUserPosts method in my repository
public List<Post> GetSpecificUserPosts(int user)
{
using (var context = new DejtingEntities())
{
var result = context.Posts
.Where(x => x.RecieverID == user)
.OrderByDescending(x => x.Date)
.ToList();
return result;
}

Try this
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#btnGetPosts').click(function() {
jQuery.support.cors = true;
var recieverID = $('#RecieverID').val();
$.ajax({
url: "/api/Posts/Posts" ,
data: {
username: recieverID
},
type: "GET",
dataType: "jsonp",
error: function(request, status, error) {
alert(request.responseText);
},
success: function(data) {
alert(data);
}
});
});
});
and in code behind,
public IEnumerable<Post> GetPosts(string username)
{
// Converts Username querystring to a user-id
int id = UserRepository.GetUserId(username);
// uses linq to get a specific user post (all posts)
var userPost = PostRepository.GetSpecificUserPosts(id);
return userPost;
}

You use wrong url. Try send ajax request to '/api/Posts'.
Also you can add routing attribute to the action [Route('/api/Posts/GetPosts')] and send request to '/api/Posts/GetPosts'.
