I defined a simple view where I request the user to choose a file to upload. This file is stored in a model (model of the view) and is then treated in the POST method. Once the file has been uploaded, I save the new model (result of the file) it into the TempData in order to pass it to the next view to be displayed and later validate the content by the user.
Everything works fine until the redirecttoaction which is not doing anything and I don't know what I'm doing wrong here
Here is an example of what I do:
[HttpGet]
public IActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
[HttpPost]
public IActionResult Index(ImportIndexViewModel model)
{
if (!ModelState.IsValid)
return View(model);
if (model.File == null)
{
ModelState.AddModelError("File", "File is null");
return View(model);
}
var extension = Path.GetExtension(model.FileName);
if (extension != ".xlsx")
{
ModelState.AddModelError("File extension", "File type is not authorized. Please use the correct template file");
return View(model);
}
var uploads = Path.Combine(_webHostEnvironment.WebRootPath, "uploads");
if (model.File.Length <= 0)
{
ModelState.AddModelError("File size", "File length is <= 0");
return View(model);
}
var resultModel = InterclubsApiClient.GetInterclubsReaderModel(model.File, uploads).GetAwaiter().GetResult();
TempData.Put<InterclubsReaderModel>("InterclubsReaderModel", resultModel);
return RedirectToAction(nameof(ImportController.Upload), typeof(ImportController).GetControllerName());
}
[HttpGet]
public IActionResult Upload()
{
var model = TempData.Get<InterclubsReaderModel>("InterclubsReaderModel");
if (model == null)
return BadRequest(ErrorHelper.GetModelStateDictionary("InterclubsReaderModel", "Model is null when retrieved from TempData"));
return View(model);
}
Upload is working because I can find the file in the uploads folder. The model is also correct because I can find values into it but why the redirect isn't working ?
Instead, the page stays there and I can't do anything on it. If I use Chrome, it says that the website isn't reachable (like missing the link to IIS).
Thanks for your help.
EDIT: In answer to the question: are you sure this is the correct method name given by nameof(...)
Here it is:
