PageMethod problem

HI. I have a problem with calling static PageMethod in asp.net ajax.

Problem apperars then i use UrlMappings. For example i have this code in web.config

<urlMappings>
<add url="~/ComputerManager/WorkstationList.aspx" mappedUrl="~/ComputerManager/ComputerList.aspx?comp_type=1"/>
<add url="~/ComputerManager/ServerList.aspx" mappedUrl="~/ComputerManager/ComputerList.aspx?comp_type=2"/>
</urlMappings>

and this code in ComputerList.aspx. cs

[WebMethod]
public static string SetSelection(string ID,string dataKey,bool state)
{
 ...
}

so, when call PageMethods.SetSelection(...) a have a error "The server method SetSelection is failed".

post url ends with WorkstationList.aspx/SetSelection

any ideas?

Hi,

You are rewriting your URL, and these URL are fixed one. They don't cater for any extra items or query string parameters. Thats why they don't map to actual page when you want to do that. In this case I will recommend that you add another entry with following items

<urlMappings><add url="~/ComputerManager/WorkstationList.aspx" mappedUrl="~/ComputerManager/ComputerList.aspx?comp_type=1"/><add url="~/ComputerManager/ServerList.aspx" mappedUrl="~/ComputerManager/ComputerList.aspx?comp_type=2"/><add url="~/ComputerManager/WorkstationList.aspx/SetSelection" mappedUrl="~/ComputerManager/ComputerList.aspx?comp_type=1"/><add url="~/ComputerManager/ServerList.aspx/SetSelection" mappedUrl="~/ComputerManager/ComputerList.aspx?comp_type=2"/></urlMappings>

Then i use mappings like you suggested, i get a request to pageComputerList.aspx with parametercomp_type=1, insted of calling PageMethod.

So i rewrite it this way

<urlMappings>
<add url="~/ComputerManager/WorkstationList.aspx" mappedUrl="~/ComputerManager/ComputerList.aspx?comp_type=1"/>
<add url="~/ComputerManager/ServerList.aspx" mappedUrl="~/ComputerManager/ComputerList.aspx?comp_type=2"/>
<add url="~/ComputerManager/WorkstationList.aspx/SetSelection" mappedUrl="~/ComputerManager/ComputerList.aspx/SetSelection"/>
<add url="~/ComputerManager/ServerList.aspx/SetSelection" mappedUrl="~/ComputerManager/ComputerList.aspx/SetSelection"/>
</urlMappings>

and that solves my problem.

Thanks for good idea,ziqbalbh.
