can't find action only on live server, works fine in local server-Collection of common programming errors
A public action method ‘AddPromoCode’ was not found on controller ‘Flazingo.Controllers.PositionController’. at System.Web.Mvc.Controller.HandleUnknownAction(String actionName) at System.Web.Mvc.Controller.ExecuteCore() at System.Web.Mvc.ControllerBase.Execute(RequestContext requestContext) at System.Web.Mvc.MvcHandler.c_DisplayClass6.c_DisplayClassb.b_5() at System.Web.Mvc.Async.AsyncResultWrapper.c_DisplayClass1.b_0() at System.Web.Mvc.MvcHandler.c_DisplayClasse.b__d() at System.Web.HttpApplication.CallHandlerExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously)
Here is the ajax call:

dataType: "json",
contentType: "application/json; charset:utf-8",
data: ko.toJSON(viewModel),
success: function(result){

viewModel.PromoCodes.push(promoCode + ": "+ result.Value + "% off");
}else{
viewModel.PromoCodes.push(promoCode + ": "+ result.Value + "days free");
}
},
error: function (xmlHttpRequest, textStatus, errorThrown) {
var errorData = jQuery.parseJSON(xmlHttpRequest.responseText);
var errorMessages = [];
//this ugly loop is because List is serialized to an object instead of an array
for (var key in errorData)
{
errorMessages.push(errorData[key]);
}
toastr.error(errorMessages.join("

}
});

Note: the call is made within a knockout click function. Note: I have created another issue, thinking it was client side issue. This is related. Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token B on live but not local server

It can’t find
AddPromoCodeso, there seems a url problem. You should add the application name at ajax code in server likeurl: '/ApplicationName/Position/AddPromoCode'.You can also do this with url.action html helper, like:
// In layout or view: @Html.Hidden("urlPrefix", Url.Action("", "")) // In Javascript var baseUrl = $("input#urlPrefix").val(); $.ajax({ url: baseUrl + '/Position/AddPromoCode', ...The part
Url.Action("", "")creates'/ApplicationName'part dynamically.
