I've looked all over and can't find an answer to this. I have a simple test controller in ASP.NET MVC4 set up as follows:
public class TestController {
[HttpGet]
public ActionResult Index() {
MyModel model = new MyModel();
model.Debug += "GET Method";
return View(model);
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Post(MyModel model) {
model.Debug += "POST Method";
return View("Index", model);
}
}
The Index view just has a form and a button that POSTs to /Test/Post which should just return HTTP 200 with the Index view. That works as expected on my laptop and on my server. But on the hosting provider I get the following when I perform the POST:
POST /Test/Post returns HTTP 302 Redirect to /Test/Post (What the heck?)
GET /Test/Post returns HTTP 404
How could this possibly happen? Any ideas for troubleshooting this problem?
The only difference that I know of between the environments is that I have .NET 4.5 installed and they have .NET 4.0 installed (and won't install 4.5 for some reason.) The projects target .NET 4 though, so don't think it would matter? Originally I had them targeting 4.5, but changed it after I learned that it isn't installed on the server.
Searching for ASP.NET POSTs returning 302 brings up a lot of questions about redirecting due to logins. But this controller isn't under any sort of restricted folder or [Authorize] attribute.
Update - web.config's
I've tried it with and without <authorization>, same results either way. Here is the system.web, in case this will help:
