Debug Server Responded with a status 500

Apr 30, 2020 11:45 AM|thtang|LINK

Hi,

I have a grid table to show all the OptMsgType Record in OptMsgType table by JSON. I can load and delete the table but if I click the "Create" button, it will pop up a blank page ("Create.cshtml"). I check the browser and it shows the error "Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 500 ()" in "Settings/OptMsgType/Create:1". I googled it and it seems kind of server error. I would like to ask if I have way to debug the cause of error.

Thank you!

Create.cshtml

@model theManager.Areas.Settings.Models.OptMsgType


@{
    ViewData["Title"] = "Create";
    Layout = null;
}

<h2>Message Type Settings</h2>


@using (Html.BeginForm("Create","OptMsgType", FormMethod.Post, new { id= "popupForm" }))
{
    if (Model != null && Model.MsgTypeId > 0)
    {
        @Html.HiddenFor(a=>a.MsgTypeId)
    }
 
    <div class="form-group">
        <label>Message Type ID</label>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(a=>a.MsgTypeId,new { @class = "form-control" })
        @Html.ValidationMessageFor(a=>a.MsgTypeId)
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
        <label>Leave Type</label>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(a => a.MsgType, new { @class = "form-control" })
        @Html.ValidationMessageFor(a => a.MsgType)
    </div>
    <div class="form-group">
        <label>Status</label>
        @Html.DropDownListFor(model => model.MsgStatus, new SelectList(Model.StatusList, "Value", "Text"), htmlAttributes: new { @class = "form-control", id = "OptStatus" })
        @Html.ValidationMessageFor(a => a.StatusList)

I googled it and it seems kind of server error. I would like to ask if I have way to debug the cause of error.

Yes, debugging is the next step. Your code is rather confusing as it returns JSON responses but you have not shared any AJAX or HttpClient making HTTP requests. I assume the 500 error has something to do with code we cannot see.

Hi,

See https://medium.stackify.com/iis-logs-error-logs-and-more-6-ways-to-find-failed-asp-net-requests-23b16e40db89 and point 3.

It allows to know which exact error and then you can look at the relevant place from what could cause this error. When reading it is not uncommon to see multiple possible errors without any way to know if or which one happens or that the problem is caused by some data you can't see just by reading your code.

Hi, thtang

Because you have two get methods named "Create", although one has parameters and one doesn't, the "AmbiguousMatchException" error will appear. You can use "[HttpGet (" {id} ")]" before the Create method with parameters.

More usage of " HttpGet " can refer to this link.

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/mvc/controllers/routing?view=aspnetcore-3.1#attribute-routing-with-http-verb-attributes

Here is the result.

Best Regards,

YihuiSun
