I know I can have custom error pages for non existent controllers or wrong routing but how can I show custom error pages if an user tries to download a file that does not exist inside some directory? I can't make it work at all. It's still showing default error page. This blog post walks you through handling 404 errors in ASP.Net Web API: http://weblogs.asp.net/imranbaloch/handling-http-404-error-in-asp-net-web-api Let's say that you are developing a HTTP RESTful application using ASP.NET Web API framework. In this application you need to handle HTTP 404 errors in a centralized location. From

I am loading an image in JS like this: var img = new Image(); img.onload = function () { .. }; img.src = src; This will work, but I have realized that I must secure my images on the server side with OAuth 2 (as with the rest of the application) and this will effect in me simply receiving a 401 Unauthorized. This is an angular app and I do have an interceptor adding the Authorization header consequently for all the angular service requests to the server, but in this case of course - the interceptor is not used because the call is not made in an angular context. Any ideas to how I can add the

I have a working (simplified) ODataController with the following method. public class MyTypeController : ODataController { [HttpGet] [EnableQuery] [ODataRoute("myTypes")] public IQueryable<MyType> GetMyTypes(ODataQueryOptions<MyType> options) { return _repo.myResultsAsQueryable(); } } I would like to be able to call this method from the server and to do this I need to instantiate an ODataQueryOptions which requires an ODataQueryContext . There are examples of how to do this (Eg. here and here ) but they all seem to reference a previous version of OData. The ODataQueryContext constructor

I am having some difficulties with OWIN in a ASP.NET WebApi2 setting. The first request after a restart results in the exception: [ObjectDisposedException: Cannot access a disposed object. Object name: 'System.Net.Http.HttpMessageInvoker'.] System.Net.Http.HttpMessageInvoker.CheckDisposed() +327456 System.Net.Http.HttpMessageInvoker.SendAsync(HttpRequestMessage request, CancellationToken cancellationToken) +24 System.Web.Http.Owin.<InvokeCore>d__0.MoveNext() +501 System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter.ThrowForNonSuccess(Task task) +99 System.Runtime.CompilerServices.TaskAwaiter

I'm wanting to make use of the new method for globally logging errors. I've written a class that inherits ExceptionLogger and overrides the Log() method. Then registered it as a replacement. public class TraceExceptionLogger : ExceptionLogger { public async override void Log(ExceptionLoggerContext context) { // This is always empty string var content = await context.Request.Content.ReadAsStringAsync(); // This is almost always null var actionContext = context.ExceptionContext.ActionContext; } } I can dig through the ExceptionLoggerContext object's properties to get pretty much everything I

I'm writing some tests for my WebAPI web service and cannot figure out how to send JSON to my service method in the test. ScheduleRequest sr = new ScheduleRequest(); sr.Months = null; sr.States = null; sr.Zip = null; sr.Miles = null; sr.PCodes = null; sr.PageStart = 1; sr.PageLimit = 10; HttpRequestMessage m = new HttpRequestMessage(); string sr_ = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(sr); // How do I load it into the HttpRequestMessage??? // m.Content. = sr_; var controller = new ShoppingCartController(); // Call the controlelr method and test if the return data is correct.
