I am getting a Server Error in '/' Application in my ASP.NET MVC 5 application

Question

I am building a C# application and everything seems to be right, but I am experiencing following error:

Server Error in '/' Application.

The resource cannot be found.

Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.

Requested URL: /Products/Main

Everything seems to be correct. I have products model:

public class ProductsController : Controller
{
        // GET: Product
        public ActionResult Main(string category,
                                  string name,
                                  SortCriteria? criteria,
                                  SortOrder? order)
        {
            var model = new ProductsViewModel
            {
                Category = category,
                Name = name,
                Criteria = criteria ?? SortCriteria.Name,
                Order = order ?? SortOrder.ASC
            };

            var products = new ProductRepository().GetAll();
            model.Categories =
                products.Select(p => p.Category).Distinct().Select(c => new SelectListItem { Value = c, Text = c }).ToList();

            if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(category))
            {
                products = products.Where(p => p.Category.Equals(category));
            }

            if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(name))
            {
                products = products.Where(p => p.Name.ToLower().Contains(name.ToLower()));
            }

            if (criteria == SortCriteria.Name)
            {
                if (order == SortOrder.DESC)
                    products = products.OrderByDescending(p => p.Name);
                else
                    products = products.OrderBy(p => p.Name);
            }
            else
            {
                if (order == SortOrder.DESC)
                    products = products.OrderByDescending(p => p.Price);
                else
                    products = products.OrderBy(p => p.Price);
            }

            model.Products = products.Select(MapToModel).ToList();

            return View(model);
        }

        [HttpGet]
        public ActionResult Create()
        {
            return View(new ProductViewModel());
        }

        [HttpPost]
        public ActionResult Create(ProductViewModel model)
        {
            new ProductRepository().Create(MapFromModel(model));
            return RedirectToAction("Index");
        }

        private ProductViewModel MapToModel(Product p)
        {
            return new ProductViewModel
            {
                Id = p.ID,
                Name = p.Name,
                Price = p.Price,
                Category = p.Category
            };
        }

        private Product MapFromModel(ProductViewModel p)
        {
            return new Product
            {
                ID = p.Id,
                Name = p.Name,
                Price = p.Price
            };
        }
}

I have a View for this main action result.

And here is my URL format:

routes.MapRoute(
            name: "Default",
            url: "{culture}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
            defaults: new {culture="en", controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
        );

How are you calling that - Based on your route, its passing `Product` as the `culture` and `Main` as the `controller` — , Feb 15 '18 at 05:49
But it's working fine, when I go to home route without specifying culture — Ibrokhimjon Saydakhmatov, Feb 15 '18 at 05:52
You have not shown your `Home` route! To match the route you have shown it needs to be as @Mittal has noted — , Feb 15 '18 at 05:53
Yes you guys were right, it was because of culture. Thank you very much))) — Ibrokhimjon Saydakhmatov, Feb 15 '18 at 05:53
url for this action would be something like /en-us/products/main?category=men&name=show&criteria=c1&order=price — Bhuban Shrestha, Feb 15 '18 at 06:00
See [ASP.NET MVC 5 culture in route and url](https://stackoverflow.com/a/32839796/). You need to customize routing if you want to have a "default culture". — NightOwl888, Feb 15 '18 at 07:54

Enter controller name and action method name otherwise change controller and action method name in route.config file...

routes.MapRoute(
            name: "Default",
            url: "{culture}/{controller}/{action}/{id}",
            defaults: new {culture="en", controller = "Products", action = "Main", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
        );
