Error executing child request for handler in view

Question

I have an MVC 4 view where I render the following actions

@{
    Html.RenderAction(\"Index\", \"Logo\");
    Html.RenderAction(\"Index\", \"MainMenu\");
}
         


        

Answer 1

This happened to me, because I was calling the view from different areas.

The view I wanted to call was not within an area, so when calling it from outside of all areas a call like

@Html.RenderAction("Index", "Logo");

would work without problems.

But when I wanted that same view called from another view that was inside an area, I would have to add some additional information to the call to make it explicit:

@Html.RenderAction("Index", "Logo", new { area = "" });
