Hi All

I have been playing around with Umbraco 7 for the past 2 months now and I am struggling to get the MVC 5 Template Pages to work correctly. The Template comes with Account and Manage Controllers with builtin Login/Register etc. functionality. I am using Macros for each of the pages that renders views and converted the controllers to be Surface Controllers.

I got the Login and Register parts working with lots of frustration and now I am moving on to the Manage side of the app. I can load my Manage/Index page but when I try and load the ManageLogins page the macro fails to load.

I think it has something to do with the fact that most of the Action Results are asynchronous but it doesn't make sense why the Manage/Index page loads as it's exactly the same as the ManageLogins action result.

I have made sure that I return PartialViews for all the actions that returns views and also the models that goes with the pages.

So here is the code for my Controller and Action:

    //
    // GET: /Manage/Index
    public async Task<ActionResult> Index(ManageMessageId? message)
    {
        ViewBag.StatusMessage =
            message == ManageMessageId.ChangePasswordSuccess ? "Your password has been changed."
            : message == ManageMessageId.SetPasswordSuccess ? "Your password has been set."
            : message == ManageMessageId.SetTwoFactorSuccess ? "Your two-factor authentication provider has been set."
            : message == ManageMessageId.Error ? "An error has occurred."
            : message == ManageMessageId.AddPhoneSuccess ? "Your phone number was added."
            : message == ManageMessageId.RemovePhoneSuccess ? "Your phone number was removed."
            : "";

        var userId = User.Identity.GetUserId();
        var model = new IndexViewModel
        {
            HasPassword = HasPassword(),
            PhoneNumber = await UserManager.GetPhoneNumberAsync(userId),
            TwoFactor = await UserManager.GetTwoFactorEnabledAsync(userId),
            Logins = await UserManager.GetLoginsAsync(userId),
            BrowserRemembered = await AuthenticationManager.TwoFactorBrowserRememberedAsync(userId)
        };
        return PartialView(model);
    }

The controller inherits from SurfaceController

ManageController : SurfaceController

My Model:

public class IndexViewModel : BaseUmbracoModel
{
    public bool HasPassword { get; set; }
    public IList<UserLoginInfo> Logins { get; set; }
    public string PhoneNumber { get; set; }
    public bool TwoFactor { get; set; }
    public bool BrowserRemembered { get; set; }
}

BaseUmbracoModel:

public class BaseUmbracoModel : RenderModel
{
    public BaseUmbracoModel() : base(UmbracoContext.Current.PublishedContentRequest.PublishedContent, UmbracoContext.Current.PublishedContentRequest.Culture) {  }
}

And then my View:

@model Platform.Umbraco.Web.Models.IndexViewModel
@{ ViewBag.Title = "Manage";}

<h2>@ViewBag.Title.</h2>

<p class="text-success">@ViewBag.StatusMessage</p>
<div>
<h4>Change your account settings</h4>
<hr />
<dl class="dl-horizontal">
    <dt>Password:</dt>
    <dd>
        [
        @if (Model.HasPassword)
        {
            @Html.ActionLink("Change your password", "ChangePassword",null, new { Href = "/Manage/ChangePassword" })
        }
        else
        {
            @Html.ActionLink("Create", "SetPassword", null, new { Href = "/Manage/SetPassword" })
        }
        ]
    </dd>
    <dt>External Logins:</dt>
    <dd>
        @Model.Logins.Count [
        @Html.ActionLink("Manage", "ManageLogins", null, new { Href = "/Manage/ManageLogins" }) ]
    </dd>
    <dt>Two-Factor Authentication:</dt>
    <dd>
        @if (Model.TwoFactor)
            {
                using (Html.BeginUmbracoForm("DisableTwoFactorAuthentication", "Manage", null, new { @class = "form-horizontal", role = "form" }))
                {
                    @Html.AntiForgeryToken()
                    <text>Enabled
                    <input type="submit" value="Disable" class="btn btn-link" />
                    </text>
                }
            }
            else
            {
                using (Html.BeginUmbracoForm("EnableTwoFactorAuthentication", "Manage", null, new { @class = "form-horizontal", role = "form" }))
                {
                    @Html.AntiForgeryToken()
                    <text>Disabled
                    <input type="submit" value="Enable" class="btn btn-link" />
                    </text>
                }
            }
    </dd>
</dl>

And lastly the macro that loads the Manage/Index page:

@inherits Umbraco.Web.Macros.PartialViewMacroPage
@Html.Action("Index","Manage")

Now all of that works but when I try and navigate from the Manage/Index page to the ManageLogins page then I get this error:

An exception of type 'System.Web.HttpException' occurred in System.Web.dll but was not handled in user code

Additional information: Error executing child request for handler 'System.Web.Mvc.HttpHandlerUtil+ServerExecuteHttpHandlerAsyncWrapper'.

Now I don't understand why the Manage/Index page is working but the ManageLogins page is not working.

Has anyone got the standard pages of an MVC 5 app to work correctly? Is there anything I am doing wrong?

I even followed this post for a possible solution but still nothing.
