    <p>So I saw <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/q/3573554/186643">this question</a> here on SO, but it hasn't really solved this problem for me.</p> <p>I have an ASP.NET MVC 3 + Razor app running on IIS5 on my dev pc, and then IIS6 for my dev web server. Everything worked great until I deployed it. I am bin deploying everything, with no problems on that front (that I can tell).</p> <p>Now I am getting this <strong>Child actions are not allowed to perform redirect actions</strong> error on my page. I am not sure how to pinpoint where it is failing.</p> <p>I'm using @Html.Action to pull in some drop down boxes with data:</p> <pre><code> public ActionResult Hierarchy() { List&lt;Store&gt; storeList = DBService.getStores(); if (DBService.Error != null) return RedirectToError(DBService.Error); List&lt;Department&gt; deptList = DBService.getDepts(); if (DBService.Error != null) return RedirectToError(DBService.Error); VM_Hierarchy hierarchy = new VM_Hierarchy(storeList, deptList); return View(hierarchy); } </code></pre> <p>If I remove the @Html.Action line, the page will render. It will then break if I do an AJAX request to a controller action such as this:</p> <pre><code> [HttpPost] public ActionResult InventoryList(string fromDate, string toDate) { List&lt;Inventory&gt; inventories = DBService.getInventories(fromDate, toDate); if (DBService.Error != null) return RedirectToAction("Error"); return View(inventories); } </code></pre> <p>If this isn't correct, how am I supposed to redirect to an error page or dictate what view gets returned on a post? Any help is appreciated. Thanks.</p>

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.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
