Question

I have created a new control VidController

public class VidController : Controller
{
public ActionResult GetVids()
{
return View();
}
}


Right clicked inside the method and created View with default name GetVids. Now when i try to open ~/Vid/GetVids there is no page opening…
What i have to set in Global file?

Answer 1

Instead of opening ~/VidController/GetVids in your browser you could try /Vid/GetVids. In ASP.NET MVC the standard convention is that the Controller suffix is used for the class name but removed when resolving the route.

When you call VidController/GetVids, the routing engine is trying to find a controller named VidControllerController which obviously doesn’t exist.
