How to use asp:MenuItem NavigateUrl property to call BlazorServer app in the same solution? I have a solution. Solution has different projects with diff framework such as .net 4.6.1 and Core .3.1. Inside the .net 4.6.1 web app project, I would like to call the Blazor server app(EDBBlazorServer) project. Could you please tell me how to do this?

I have tried this line, it will not work.

ASP.NET

<asp:MenuItem NavigateUrl="/EDBBlazorServer/_Host" Text="MyLinktoBlazorServerLandingPage" />

What I have tried:

ASP.NET

Solution 1

You need to specify the URL of the page you want to open.

If the two applications are hosted in the same server (eg: localhost:44320), the URL can be relative.

Otherwise, you will need to use an absolute URL - for example: http://localhost:44320/EDBBlazorServer/_Host

We can't tell you the precise URL to use, since we don't know the URL of the page you're trying to load.

<asp:menuitem navigateurl="http://localhost:44320/EDBBlazorServer/_Host" text="RollUp Mappings">
hello, this is not working,

This site can’t be reached localhost refused to connect.
Try:

Checking the connection
Checking the proxy and the firewall
ERR_CONNECTION_REFUSED

I am getting this page. Everything is connected I am online. I am still getting this above error.

As I said, you need to use the correct URL for the page you're trying to navigate to.

If you're running the solution from Visual Studio, you'll also need to make sure that both projects are running.

I created a sample blazor server app inside a solution where there is also a .net frame work app. Nothing special, just the scaffolding code.

I am with visiting any page inside blazor app. index.razor or _Host.cshtml.

how can I redirect to this page(\EDBBlazorServer\Pages\Index.razor) from the webforms app(4.6.1)

this doesn't work
http://localhost:44320/EDBBlazorServer/_Host

How can i run two apps at once, my webforms app starts running after f5, then how do i get the blazor app also running?

Richard Deeming 3-Sep-20 11:08am

Once again: Use the full URL of the page you're trying to redirect to. And make sure both projects are running.

Richard Deeming sir,
you ROCK. Thank you. Live long and prosper.

bgundas 3-Sep-20 14:18pm

if i set multiple startup projects , when I do f5, i see two browser windows opening, which is expected.
I need only the main app(webforms) open. And when I click a menu item in webforms app , I wanna open the blazor app inside the same tab. Can you tell me how to do this?

Richard Deeming 4-Sep-20 3:53am

You need both projects to run. In the WebForms project, set the NavigateUrl to the full URL of the page you want to navigate to in the Blazor project.

I suspect there won't be a way to have the Blazor project running without opening a second browser window. Just ignore the second window until you've finished testing.
