Ok so deploying to local IIS my project works fine. Deploying to the online host, I only get directory listing. ( Using VisualStudio 2012, mvc3, .net 4.5 Publish to Web settings: <ol> <li>Publish method: FTP</li> <li>Server: <code>www."mysite".co.za</code></li> <li>Site Path: "blank" (My understanding is that I'm publishing directly to the app directory, so my root contains bin, views, global.asax, web.config)</li> <li>Destination URL: <code>http://www."mysite".co.za</code></li> <li>Databases are already up and configured in web.config</li> </ol> ) If click on the Views directory I get the 404 error. What I did next was to see if it executes global.asax, so I added code to throw an exception in RegisterRoutes (Called from Application_Start()) <pre><code> public static void RegisterRoutes(RouteCollection routes) { routes.IgnoreRoute("{resource}.axd/{*pathInfo}"); routes.MapRoute( "Default", // Route name "{controller}/{action}/{id}", // URL with parameters new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional } // Parameter defaults ); throw new Exception("This is my custom error: Currently in RegisterRoutes"); } </code></pre> And true's Bob, I get the following (but still only if I click on my View directory): <pre> <H1>Server Error in '/' Application.</H1> <h2> This is my custom error: Currently in RegisterRoutes </h2> Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.Exception: This is my custom error: Currently in RegisterRoutes</pre> So my questions: 1. Why would my root not pick up global.asax? 2. How can I see where execution of code ends after routes.MapRoute(...)? (that is, after removing the throw Exception ;) ) Regards

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
