Controller not getting called when setting up in a new project

Title:

B I {code} ?

I recently started on working with asp.net , i found the examples here were great to start . Everything works fine when I just down load the zip and work from the solution . I am running into problems when using it in my solution/project . I followed the instructions to set it up on my project . But when I want to test the simplest piece of the code ( say Auto Complete from my project , i see that the controller is even not getting called .everything complies and I am its justa run time issue . Let me know what I am missing . Here is my code View: Meal: @(Html.Awe().AutocompleteFor(o => o.Meal) .Url(Url.Action("GetItems", "CaseSearch")) .Placeholder("try o")) Controller: public class CaseSearchController : Controller { public ActionResult GetItems(string v)// v is the entered text { Debug.WriteLine("GridGetItems"); /*v = (v ?? "").ToLower().Trim(); var items = Db.Meals.Where(o => o.Name.ToLower().Contains(v)); return Json(items.Take(10).Select(o => new KeyContent(o.Id, o.Name)));(*/ return Json(""); } } I was not sure how to debug this , so just commented out every line in the method and just wanted to see the print to make sure the call is being invoked when i tried to key in o . But nothing happens.

• the code looks correct, GetItems should return a Json from collection of `KeyContent` but it should still be hit if you put a breakpoint in there, you can check if you have any errors in the browser console

• Breakpoint not getting hit and no errors on browser window . As I told you if I replace that awesome code with some dummy code I write on that page it’s getting called . My guess is somewhere my run time configuration of awesome dependent libraries is not getting called . Is there using some simple java script I can test is the awesome libraries loaded ?

• you can try in the console `awe.flash($('body'))` or simply type `awe` and see if it has value; try going through the installation steps one more time
