Webmatrix: 404 error; Register.cshtml

EDGY · September 24th, 2015, 01:02 PM

Hey Imar (Gentlemen),

Webmatrix/Razor/C#/WebPages:
When I deployed my application, I got a 404 error on the REGISTER.cshtml, ONLY, I hope i'm
just missing a DLL. All the other Security features work: Logon, Logoff, Profile, Password...

I don't think I've modified the register file... Everything else works great.

I do have Webmatrx.data.dll & Webmatrix.Webdata.dll installed..but I don't have ALL the other
DLLs that were in the Classifieds example, which was succesfully deployed; no error; Register works there...

Also, I DO have this statement in my _AppStart file :
WebSecurity.InitializeDatabaseConnection("ballet", "Users","UserId","UserName",true);

I was suspecting the AreaRegistration.RegisterAllAreas(); but I had no such problems in the
Classifieds deployment...(which is actually a MVC ? feature ?)

Thanks,
Edward Solon

Sounds like you're missing the security related assemblies? Try uploading the ones from the example that works.

Cheers,

Imar

Imar,
Thanks,
Would you be able to make an educated guess as to which One ?

This listing is the bin directory of my Classifieds application. Would I need to just copy the correct DLL file into my new application Or do I need to recompile it ? Your books are GREAT and so is your assistance on these sites.

I listed Both of the bin dirs; Hopefully you can spot something missing; I'd RATHER not test each one individually...ya know..

Thanks Again Imar...

Imar,
Otay, leeme ask another Question....or two...

My web.config looks a bit sparse; Does it get built when I WebDeploy; cause I didn't this time; I used FTP... experimenting and testing...

I tried a using statement; no bueno ( but I didn't have the DLL in the bin), Is that one solution ?

Net4 : uses System.Web.ApplicationServices
Net3.5: uses System.Web

<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name="System.Web.WebPages" publicKeyToken="31bf3856ad364e35" culture="neutral" />
<bindingRedirect oldVersion="0.0.0.0-2.0.0.0" newVersion="2.0.0.0" />
</dependentAssembly>

Can I manually construct the assembly statement IF I put the DLL in the bin;...I noticed all my publicKeyTokens are the same ?
Got any links simple assemblies for novices...

Thanks Imar...

You don't need the assembly binding info for most DLLs. It's there for code that requires an old version, while there's also code that requires a new one. Since you can't have them side by side, the binding redirect is there to "forward" usages of an old one to a new one.

Hope this helps,

Imar

Imar,
Your not gonna believe this. My 404 error was on my Register.cshtml file and due to server Attacks, the provider had restricted that word; "REGISTER."

I renamed it to "SignUp" and it all works like a charm !!! Yipeee..

I had stripped down the orig file, then replaced it with a dummy n still got errors, VERY Strange.. Then I tried RegisterTest and even moving it to my root, any name with REGISTER in it got a 404...

FYI, ...
Thanks Imar
(you still da MAN)
