Problems saving Telerik MultiSelect data #5366


User avatar

Mitch created

I'm using the Core MVC and jQuery with Telerik Controls.

All controls are working well except for the MultiSelect. It must be bound to a String array to pass the selected values to the control.

public string[] CaseConditionsArray { get; set; }

I can successfully pass the previously selected values to the control and they display correctly. I can also add or remove additional items from the selected list.

My problem occurs when I need to save the data. I get a validation popup message "Your request is not valid!" "The following errors were detected during validation - ". However, nothing is listed.

In the Logs.txt the following errors are logged

WARN  2018-07-12 00:38:58,739 [39   ] Mvc.ExceptionHandling.AbpExceptionFilter - Method arguments are not valid! See ValidationErrors for details.

I don't have any issues with any other controls. I'm wondering if the problem is caused by the Multiselect requiring a string array rather than a simple string, int or datetime like the other controls.

Do you have any suggestions how to fix this issue?

    It should be a problem with model binding. Please take a look at the request parameters of the http request header.

    Please share your controller code and parameter model.

    Thanks for responding.

    Since my initial email I've tried to use the standard MVC DropDownList (Multiple) and I'm getting similar problems so the issue isn't Telerik specific.

    Here's the code for the standard MVC dropdown I'm using

    @Html.DropDownList("caseConditions", (MultiSelectList)ViewBag.Categories, new { multiple = "multiple" })
    

    If CaseConditions is a String it just saves only 1 item.

    If CaseConditions is a String[] I get an error. The same shown as before.

    Before sending more code, has anybody had any success using any standard MVC Multi select with ASP Net Zero?

    If so, how did you manage to Post the selected items without errors or only having 1 item saved?

    the model binding fails when you save the data, please share the http request header information of your submitted data and the parameter model corresponding to the method of saving the data.

    As requested, the following was what I was getting for the Telerik control when bound to a String[].

    Response {"result":null,"targetUrl":null,"success":false,"error":{"code":0,"message":"Your request is not valid!","details":"The following errors were detected during validation.\r\n - \r\n","validationErrors":[{"message":"","members":["caseConditionsArray"]}]},"unAuthorizedRequest":false,"__abp":true}

            {
    			GetDpmsClientCaseForEditOutput getDpmsClientCaseForEditOutput;
    
    			if (id.HasValue){
    				getDpmsClientCaseForEditOutput = await _dpmsClientCasesAppService.GetDpmsClientCaseForEdit(new EntityDto<Guid> { Id = (Guid) id });
    			}
    			else{
    				getDpmsClientCaseForEditOutput = new GetDpmsClientCaseForEditOutput{
    					DpmsClientCase = new CreateOrEditDpmsClientCaseDto()
    				};
    			}

                {
    				DpmsClientCase = getDpmsClientCaseForEditOutput.DpmsClientCase,
    					DpmsClientName = getDpmsClientCaseForEditOutput.DpmsClientName
                };
    
                viewModel.DpmsClientCase.CaseConditionsArray = viewModel.DpmsClientCase.CaseConditions.Split(',');
    
                return PartialView("_CreateOrEditModal", viewModel);
            }

    What is the model of the CreateOrEdit method? If you can use the ABP template project (<a class="postlink" href="https://aspnetboilerplate.com/Templates">https://aspnetboilerplate.com/Templates</a>) to reproduce this error, please send me a look at the project.

    Many thanks for your offer of help. I've spent about 4 hours stripping my app down to the bare bones so that I can send you a representative example of the problem.

    The email has just been sent to you along with a WeTransfer file as the app is too big to attach to an email.

    @richardghubert if you are using ASP.NET Core & jQuery version, then this is the best option I guess.
