I am continuously getting the following message while running my application.

HTTP Error 405.0 - Method Not Allowed
The page you are looking for cannot be displayed because an invalid method     (HTTP verb) is being used.

I dont have any clue how this happening.

I tried to run this with undoing last changes but still its not working.

Can anyone help me on this please?

Mostly it means that your Web Server is not recognizing the HTTP method(GET,POST,DELETE,PUT ...) in the request.

First, check in the RouteConfig.cs file which action run by defult.

routes.MapRoute(name: "Default",
   url: "{controller}/{action}/{id}",
   defaults: new { controller = "Home", action = "Index", id = UrlParameter.Optional }
);

In this case we have action Index from Home controller that was set by default.

Then, check that action. Is there any attributes like: [HttpPost], [HttpDelete], [HttpPut], ...
If you use attribute then you maybe need to make small changes in ApplicationHost.config file to enable it:

  1. Open in notepad the file: %windir%\system32\inetsrv\config\applicationhost.config
  2. In the ApplicationHost.config file, locate the <handlers> tag.
  3. Make sure that all the handlers use valid HTTP methods.
  4. Save the ApplicationHost.config file.
