To enable Hot Reload for Razor Pages, JavaScript, and CSS files in ABP MVC projects using the layered monolith architecture, you need to ensure that your application uses the physical files during development instead of the embedded resources. By default, ABP modules embed static and Razor files into assemblies, which prevents Hot Reload and file watchers from detecting changes.
ABP provides a solution for this scenario using the ReplaceEmbeddedByPhysical method in the Virtual File System configuration. This allows your application to use the physical files from the module project during development, so changes are immediately reflected without restarting the application.
Here’s how to configure it:
[DependsOn(typeof(MyModule))]
public class MyWebAppModule : AbpModule
{
public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
{
var hostingEnvironment = context.Services.GetHostingEnvironment();
if (hostingEnvironment.IsDevelopment()) // Only for development time
{
Configure<AbpVirtualFileSystemOptions>(options =>
{
options.FileSets.ReplaceEmbeddedByPhysical<MyModule>(
Path.Combine(
hostingEnvironment.ContentRootPath,
$"..{Path.DirectorySeparatorChar}MyModuleProject"
)
);
});
}
}
}
This configuration ensures that during development, changes to .cshtml, .js, and .css files in your module’s Pages folder are served directly from disk, enabling Hot Reload and immediate feedback.
No need to restart the application for every change—just refresh the browser.
This approach is already used in ABP’s application startup templates for localization files and is the recommended way to improve the development experience with embedded resources.

To resolve IDX10204 (issuer validation) and IDX10500 (signature validation) errors when using an internal MetadataAddress in Kubernetes, you must ensure that:
Here is a recommended approach for ABP microservice deployments in Kubernetes:
context.Services.AddAuthentication(JwtBearerDefaults.AuthenticationScheme)
.AddAbpJwtBearer(options =>
{
options.Authority = configuration["AuthServer:Authority"]; // Should match the issuer in the token
options.MetadataAddress = configuration["AuthServer:MetaAddress"]!.EnsureEndsWith('/') + ".well-known/openid-configuration";
options.RequireHttpsMetadata = configuration.GetValue<bool>("AuthServer:RequireHttpsMetadata");
options.Audience = configuration["AuthServer:Audience"];
// Explicitly set ValidIssuers to match the issuer in the token
options.TokenValidationParameters = new TokenValidationParameters
{
ValidIssuers = new[] { configuration["AuthServer:Authority"].EnsureEndsWith('/') }
};
});
Key Points:
AuthServer:Authority
must exactly match the iss
(issuer) claim in the JWT token.MetadataAddress
should be the internal service address, but the issuer in the token must still match the public/external URL if that's what is issued.PreConfigure<OpenIddictServerBuilder>(serverBuilder =>
{
serverBuilder.SetIssuer("https://your-public-auth-url/");
});
/.well-known/openid-configuration
and the JWKS endpoint to fetch signing keys.References:
This configuration ensures that both issuer and signing key validation work correctly in a Kubernetes environment with internal service addresses.

The issue occurs because the role names are being HTML-encoded twice or not properly decoded before rendering in the modal. This is why Turkish characters like "ç" and "ö" appear as HTML entities (e.g., ç, ö) in the modal, but display correctly elsewhere.
In ABP MVC applications, Razor automatically encodes output to prevent XSS. If your data is already HTML-encoded before being passed to the view, it will be encoded again, resulting in the display of HTML entities.
To fix this, ensure that:
@Html.Raw(roleName)
only if you are 100% sure the data is safe and not user-supplied, otherwise just use @roleName
(the default).If you are using a custom modal or JavaScript to render the role names, make sure you are not encoding the names twice (e.g., once on the server and once on the client).
Example Razor usage:
@* Correct: roleName is plain text, Razor encodes it automatically *@
<span>@roleName</span>
@* If you must decode HTML entities (not recommended for user input): *@
<span>@Html.Raw(roleName)</span>
Review your backend and frontend code to ensure you are not manually encoding the role names before passing them to the view or JavaScript.
For more on Razor Tag Helpers and encoding, see:
Summary:
Store and handle role names as plain Unicode strings, let Razor handle encoding, and avoid double-encoding in your backend or JavaScript. Use @roleName
in Razor unless you have a specific reason to use @Html.Raw
.

The error InvalidOperationException: sub claim is missing
after upgrading to ABP 9.0 (while still using IdentityServer4) is due to a missing sub
(subject) claim in the authentication response. IdentityServer4 requires the sub
claim to identify the user.
In ABP 9.0, there have been significant changes and migration steps, especially regarding authentication and claims handling. If you have not migrated to OpenIddict and are still using IdentityServer4, you must ensure that your authentication pipeline and claims transformation logic are compatible with the new ABP version.
Specifically, you should:
sub
claim is present and correctly mapped for the authenticated user.sub
claim.sub
claim in the identity token.For more details and migration steps, see:
These resources provide guidance on handling authentication and claims in ABP 9.0 and can help you resolve the missing sub
claim issue.

In a Blazor WebApp "No Layer" (monolithic) ABP solution, when adding a new module via ABP Suite, you are correct in your assumptions:
For a Blazor WebApp "No Layer" solution, choose "Blazor Server" when adding modules for the most seamless integration.
Regarding documentation and enhancements for Blazor WebApp, ABP is actively evolving its documentation and features. The most up-to-date and official starting point is the "Get Started" section:
This page is regularly updated as new features and documentation become available.
If you need to add modules or extend your application, follow the standard ABP modularity approach, but always prefer the "Blazor Server" option for modules in a monolithic Blazor WebApp.

The "Could not find localization source" errors (AMS, AbpUi, AbpIdentity) indicate that the required localization resources are missing or not properly registered after your upgrade. This is a common issue when upgrading major ABP versions, especially from v4.x to v9.x, due to changes in the localization system and resource file structure.
ConfigureServices
method using the new ABP v9 syntax.The Uncaught TypeError: id.replace is not a function
error is likely caused by a JavaScript code expecting a string id
, but receiving an object or another type. This can happen if the structure of data returned from the backend has changed after the upgrade, or if a localization key is missing and returns an object instead of a string.
id
variable is always a string before calling .replace
.The UI issues (e.g., "PagerShowMenuEntries" and "ProcessingWithThreeDot" showing as raw keys) are also related to missing or unregistered localization resources.

This error, "Validating access_token failed, wrong state/nonce," typically occurs in ABP Angular applications when multiple tabs are open and the session expires or the access_token is deleted. The root cause is that the OAuth2/OIDC state and nonce values are stored in browser storage (localStorage/sessionStorage), and having multiple tabs can cause these values to become out of sync, especially after a session timeout or manual token removal. Chrome and Edge are more aggressive in synchronizing storage across tabs, which is why the issue is more visible there compared to Firefox.
Single Tab Recommendation:
This is a known limitation of SPA OAuth2/OIDC flows. Advise users to avoid logging in again in multiple tabs simultaneously after session expiration.
Custom State/Nonce Storage:
Consider customizing the storage mechanism for state/nonce to be tab-specific (e.g., using sessionStorage instead of localStorage, or using a unique key per tab).
Session Management Module:
ABP Commercial provides a Session Management feature to help prevent concurrent login/session issues. See the documentation for more details.
Logout Handling:
Ensure that your logout implementation clears all relevant tokens and state in all tabs, possibly by broadcasting a logout event using localStorage or another mechanism.
Reference Issues:
This is a common scenario in OAuth2/OIDC SPAs and is discussed in the community and GitHub issues. See the following for more details and possible workarounds:

ABP Framework does not provide a built-in LastLogin field in the default Users table (AbpUsers). However, ABP does offer a way to track user login events through the Security Log feature, which records login and logout activities.
Use Security Logs to Track Logins
AbpSecurityLogs
(or similar, depending on your version).Custom LastLogin Property (Recommended for Direct Access)
Example:
// 1. Add property to user entity (see ABP docs for entity extension)
ObjectExtensionManager.Instance
.MapEfCoreProperty<IdentityUser, DateTime?>("LastLoginTime");
// 2. Update LastLoginTime after successful login
user.SetProperty("LastLoginTime", DateTime.UtcNow);
