Code work locally but when deployed on IIS it says not found error

Mark Tabor

Hi I have asp.net mvc application and in that I use Jquery data tables for showing records

The below piece of code works fine when I run the application using visual studio but when I deploy it to IIS it gives not found error.

$(document).ready(function () {

$("#tblStudents").DataTable({

"ajax": {

"url": "/Students/GetList", ( i Have a StudentsController in which I have GETLIST GetList

"type": "POST",

"processing": true,

"serverSide": true,

"datetype": "json"

Hi, make this URL as absolute and not relative. It is looking for url from the root path.

No, you don't need to change the path, the easiest solution is to create a bundle and put it in layout or view and then republish.
also don't forget to enable bundling as
step 1. Create bundle
public class BundleConfig
    {
        // For more information on bundling, visit http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=301862
        public static void RegisterBundles(BundleCollection bundles)
        {
            bundles.Add(new ScriptBundle("~/bundles/Postscripts").Include(
                        "~/Scripts/Jquery.js",
                        "~/Scripts/bootstrap.min.js"


                        ));
}
}
step 2. use in layout or view as
@Scripts.Render("~/bundles/Postscripts")
step 3. Enable Bundling (open global.asax)
protected void Application_Start()
       {

           BundleConfig.RegisterBundles(BundleTable.Bundles);

           BundleTable.EnableOptimizations = true; // important
       }
Now, republish and test, if this doesn't work then have to set things using web.config.

404 not found error means it is not able to find the url properly. Also check whether you deployed the code correctly or not. Thanks
