Adding Content to database using MVC3

Question

I have some stored procedure to add information to a database already. Now I am creating a webpage that allows a user to view certain items within the database. When a user view the page, he or she have the option to edit/update or add a new merchant. I am having difficulties in the controller my method is not taking in the parameters im giving it. If you have any clues or know the answer please share.. Thank You

P.S Whener I hover over the add function it says bool MerchantTypeRef.addMerchantTypeRef(MerchantAdminProductionServices.MerchantTypeRef merchantTypeRef)

Error: The best overloaded method match for 'MerchantAdministrator.Models.MerchantAdminProduction.MerchatTypeRef.addMerchantTypeRef(MerchantAdministrator.MerchantAdminProductionServices.MerchantTypeRef)' has some invalid arguments

Controller

 [MerchantAuthorizeAttribute(AdminRoles = "AddMerchantTypeRef")]
    public ActionResult AddMerchantTypeRef()
    {
        try
        {
            Guid merchantTypeRefId = Request["merchantTypeRefId"] != null ? new Guid(Request["merchantTypeRefId"]) : Guid.Empty;
               string name = Request["name"]?? string.Empty;
            string description = Request["description"]?? string.Empty;
            string xMerchantType = Request["xMerchantTypeRefCode"]??string.Empty;
            DarkstarAdministrator.DarkstarAdminProductionServices.MerchantTypeRef merchantTypeRef = new DarkstarAdministrator.DarkstarAdminProductionServices.MerchantTypeRef();

            merchantTypeRef.name = name;
            merchantTypeRef.description = description;
            merchantTypeRef.xMerchantTypeCode = xMerchantType;
           ViewBag.addMerchantTypeRef = MerchantAdministrator.Models.MerchantAdminProduction.MerchantTypeRef.addMerchantTypeRef(merchantTypeRef);  <------This where I have the Trouble . not reading parameter
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            Commons.ErrorHandling.ReportError("MerchantAdministrator.Controllers.ProdController AddMerchantTypeRef()", e);
        }
        return View();

    }

Model

  public static bool addMerchantTypeRef(DarkstarAdminProductionServices.MerchantTypeRef merchantTypeRef)
    {
        try
        {
            DarkstarAdminProductionServices.DarkstarAdminProductionServicesSoapClient client = new DarkstarAdminProductionServices.DarkstarAdminProductionServicesSoapClient();
            return client.addMerchantTypeRef(merchantTypeRef);
        }
        catch (Exception e)
        {
            Commons.ErrorHandling.ReportError("MerchantTypeRef.addMerchantTypeRef()", e);

        }
        return false;
    }

Your post seems to be incomplete. Did you hit the submit button too soon? (You have the word, "View," but no view code?) — Ecnalyr

Are you saying that you do not get any value for Request["merchantTypeRefId"]? — nikeaa

Is it possible that the addMerchantTypeRef call is failing? You're catching any exceptions so you wouldn't see anything reported back. Are there any log messages showing up? — Garrett Vlieger

bool ViewBag.addMerchantTypeRef = MerchantAdministrator.Models.MerchantAdminProduction.MerchantTypeRef.addMerchantTypeRef(merchantTypeRef);

Can you please tell me is this "merchantTypeRef" or "merchantTypeRefId"? Because merchantTypeRefId is what read by the first line and the same value will need to be passed when you call Model. If that doesn't work, can you please try with "FormCollection"?
