hi all,,,,
I have one doubt on asp.net mvc 3 routing..Iam doing a project in mvc3.In my application there is an admin side and also public user side..
I have a controller that is adminController to login the admin..In the adminController there is two action methods for login and home.So the url look like
www.mySite.com/admin/login

www.mySite.com/admin/home

I have created another folder Admin in the controller folder only for accessing administrators and created ManageMembersController in the Admin folder..and the url should look like

www.mySite.com/admin/ManageMembers/list

I have written the custom routing in the global asax file..

routes.MapRoute(
                           "Admin", // Route name
                           "Admin/{controller}/{action}/{data}", // URL with parameters

                           new
                           {
                               controller = "/Admin/ManageMembers",
                               action = "list",
                               data = UrlParameter.Optional
                           } // Parameter defaults
                       );
            routes.MapRoute(
               "admin_default", // Route name
               "admin/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
               new { controller = "admin", action = "login", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
           );
            routes.MapRoute(
                "Default", // Route name
                "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters
                new { controller = "Pub", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults
            );

My problem is that when iam trying to www.mySite.com/admin/login I got an error
'The resource cannot be found.'
but the other routing worked properly..
that is www.mySite.com/admin/ManageMembers/list it redirected to the ManageMembersController

My requirement is to redirect to Controller/adminController.cs when the url is www.mysite.com/admin/..
and it must redirect to Controller/Admin/ManageMembers.cs when the url is www.mySite.com/Admin/ManageMembers/..
I need your suggestions...

Thank you Devguys...

To have two different controllers with the same name, you'll probably need to organize them into separate areas[^]. As far as I know, you'll then be able to specify the corresponding area for each controller in the routing with something like this:

C#

routes.MapRoute(
     "Default",
     "{area}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
     new { area = "YourArea", controller = "Admin", action = "List", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

etc...

I hope this is helpful.
