Scenario:

I have an ASP WebAPI service that accept email id to retrieve the previous password.

But I am having a problem that If I enter a valid email Id "Internal server error 500" is thrown but if a wrong email Id is entered, then Json with error message is returned.
(If an invalid email id is entered, then I have a Json with error message returned)

So can please any one guide what to do.

var urll = 'api/BeerAppRetrieve';
 // var urll = 'api/BeerApp';
 var emailId = "anirudh1190@gmail.com";
 //$.getJSON(urll + '/' + data)
 $.getJSON(urll, "emailId": emailId )
 .done(function (data) 
 )
 .fail(function (jqXHR, textStatus, err) 

 alert("error" + jqXHR.responseText);
 $('#txtUserName').text('Error: ' + err);
 );

My json call..
I want the method to be hit if email id is valid also..
Please help...

 config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
 name: "DefaultApi1",
 routeTemplate: "api/controller/emailId",
 defaults: new emailId = RouteParameter.Optional 
 );

My route config.

 [EnableCors("*", "*", "GET, POST")]
 public IHttpActionResult GetForgotPassword(String emailId)
 




MailMessage MyMailMessage = new MailMessage();
 MyMailMessage.From = new MailAddress("beersavo@gmail.com");
 MyMailMessage.To.Add(emailId);
 MyMailMessage.Subject = "Forgot Password";
 MyMailMessage.IsBodyHtml = true;
 BeerAppUserClass beerAppDal = new BeerAppUserClass();
 String passwrd = String.Empty;
 try
 
 passwrd = beerAppDal.GetUserPassword(emailId);
 

catch (Exception exw)

 return Json(new KeyValuePair<String, String>("MailSend", exw.InnerException.Message));


if (!passwrd.Equals(String.Empty))



MyMailMessage.Body = "<table><tr><td>" + "Login to the site with:</td></tr> <tr><td> UserName: </td><td>" + emailId + "</td></tr> <tr><td> Password:</td><td>" + passwrd + "</td></tr></table>";
 SmtpClient SMTPServer = new SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com");
 SMTPServer.Port = 587;
 //SMTPServer.Host = "smtpout.secureserver.net";
 SMTPServer.Credentials = new System.Net.NetworkCredential("email@gmail.com", "Password@321");
 SMTPServer.EnableSsl = true;
 try
 
 SMTPServer.Send(MyMailMessage);
 return Json(new KeyValuePair<String, String>("MailSend", "true"));
 

 catch (Exception ex)
 


return Json(newKeyValuePair<String,String("MailSend",ex.InnerException.Message));
 
 
 return Json(new KeyValuePair<String, String>("MailSend", "empty"));

 }

Action in the controller

Perhaps more of a comment.. .

though the issue is with having the email in the route - it has a period . - this is throwing off your routing. i had the exact same issue on a previous project that had email addresses as ID's

I would wager that when you try it with a bad email the bad string you're trying with doesn't have a period.

Use a querystring, so 'api/BeerAppRetrieve?theemail=theactual@email.com`

or change your route config to accept the period

or you can replace certain characters in the email client side and change them back server side (worst case)

As a super worst case you could add the following in your web.config (you should really avoid this otheriwse EVERY request on your site goes through the asp.net pipeline..

<configuration>
 <system.webServer>
 <modules runAllManagedModulesForAllRequests="true"> <!-- add this -->

Update

In your Javascript change:

var urll = 'api/BeerAppRetrieve';

to this

var urll = 'api/BeerAppRetrieve?emailAddress=anirudh1190@gmail.com';

And change your route back to

config.Routes.MapHttpRoute(
 name: "DefaultApi",
 routeTemplate: "api/controller/id",
 defaults: new id = RouteParameter.Optional 
);

and change your API controller to

[EnableCors("*", "*", "GET, POST")]
 public IHttpActionResult GetForgotPassword(String id)
 
 //my code
