Hi All,

I have developed an MVC 4 application and used AJAX to call controller action. Locally its working fine but when I published and deployed it on local server, it gives me error and failed to call controller action from AJAX.

I have tried to find out the solution& came across about URL passed in AJAX method. I made it as

url: '@Url.Action("Method_Name", "Controller_Name")',

but still it is giving error. Can anybody help me regarding this, what the mistake I am doing here?

Thanks in advance!

Solution 1

Look at the end of the error. You got a HTTP 404 - Not Found error. In other words, the Method Name and Controller Name you specified are wrong.

Hi all,

Many thanks to all of you for your nice reply and giving your time.

I could fixed it, actually the problem was I have used "~" symbol in src. I replaced it with "../" and it started to work fine.

Thanks once again to you.
