    Could not find a Surface controller route in the RouteTable for controller name

    Hi all,

    I'm creating a form and I'm coming a cross a routing issue, I have created forms in this exact way before but have never come across this issue.

    I have included a screenshot of the error I'm getting as well as the code i have.

    I have googled the issue and a lot of forums are saying i need to add the routing to a routing file found in the app_start folder but I cant find this anywhere, is this correct?

    enter image description here

    //MODEL

    using System.ComponentModel;
    
    namespace est1897_umbraco.Models
    {
        public class HomepageFormViewModel
        {
            [DisplayName("Pagename")]
            public string PageName { get; set; }
    
        [DisplayName("Title:")]
        public string Title { get; set; }
    
        [DisplayName("Firstname:")]
        public string Firstname { get; set; }
    
        [DisplayName("Surname:")]
        public string Surname { get; set; }
    
        [DisplayName("Telephone:")]
        public string Telephone { get; set; }
    
        [DisplayName("Email:")]
        public string Email { get; set; }
    
        [DisplayName("Against my assets:")]
        public string Asset { get; set; }
    
        [DisplayName("I would like to borrow:")]
        public string BorrowAmount { get; set; }
    }
    }
    

    //CONTROLLER

    using System.Web.Mvc;
    using est1897_umbraco.Models;
    using Umbraco.Web.Mvc;
    using System.Net.Mail;
    
    namespace est1897_umbraco.Controllers
    {
        public class HomepageFormController : SurfaceController
        {
            public ActionResult RenderForm()
            {
                return PartialView("~/Views/Partials/Forms/HomepageForm.cshtml");
            }
            [HttpPost]
            [ValidateAntiForgeryToken]
            public ActionResult SubmitForm(HomepageFormViewModel model)
            {
                if (ModelState.IsValid)
                {
                    SendEmail(model);
                    TempData["Success"] = true;

            {
                MailMessage message = new MailMessage(model.Email, "[email protected]");
                message.Subject = string.Format("Enquiry from {0} {1} {2} - {3}", model.Title, model.Firstname, model.Surname, model.Telephone);
                message.Body = "Title: " + model.Title + "<br>" +

                SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("127.0.0.1", 25);
                client.Send(message);
            }
        }
    }
    

    //FORM VIEW

            }
            else

    I have tried having the form view like this as well, which gets the same error:

    @inherits Umbraco.Web.Mvc.UmbracoViewPage<est1897_umbraco.Models.HomepageFormViewModel>
    @using Umbraco.Web
    @using(Html.BeginUmbracoForm<est1897_umbraco.Controllers.HomepageFormController>("SubmitForm", FormMethod.Post))
    {
        @Html.AntiForgeryToken()
        <label>Title</label>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Title)
        <br />
        <label>Firstname</label>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Firstname)
        <br />
        <label>Surname</label>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Surname)
        <br />
        <label>Telephone</label>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Telephone)
        <br />
        <label>Email</label>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Email)
        <br />
        <label>Asset</label>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.Asset)
        <br />
        <label>Borrow Amount</label>
        @Html.TextBoxFor(x => x.BorrowAmount)
        <br />
        <button>Submit</button>
    }

    A couple of things to try, in your Original form View, remove Controller from HomepageFormController to the following

    @using(Html.BeginUmbracoForm("SubmitForm", "HomepageForm", new { @class = "js-validate" }))

    In your RenderForm Controller Method you will need to pass through an instance of the Model

    return PartialView("~/Views/Partials/Forms/HomepageForm.cshtml",new est1897_umbraco.Models.HomepageFormViewModel());
