I can not figure this out.
How to solve the problem?
AdminAreaReistration cs
public override void RegisterArea(AreaRegistrationContext context)
{
context.MapRoute(
"CMSAdmin_default",
"CMSAdmin/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
}
RouteConfig
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Default", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);
}
According to error image, you may use different namespaces when declaring an area into RegisterArea
to avoid naming conflict between default route and area route:
AdminAreaRegistration.cs
public override void RegisterArea(AreaRegistrationContext context)
{
context.MapRoute(
"CMSAdmin_default",
"CMSAdmin/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
new { action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
new[] { "cms.site.Areas.CMSAdmin.Controllers" } // Insert area namespace here
);
}
RouteConfig.cs
public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes)
{
routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}");
routes.MapRoute(
name: "Default",
url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
defaults: new { controller = "Default", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional },
namespaces: new[] { "cms.site.Controllers" } // Insert project namespace here
);
}
Possible causes from Multiple types were found that match the controller name
error:
1) Using same controller name with different areas (this is likely your current issue),
2) Renaming project namespace/assembly name (delete old project name DLL file inside /bin directory then clean and rebuild again),
3) Conflict between references with same name but different versions (remove older reference then refactor).
