To address the issues you described on the Tenants page in your ABP Blazor Web App (v9.2.2):

1. "New Tenant" Button Requires Double Click (First Load)

This is typically caused by the modal/dialog component not being fully initialized or bound on the first render. In Blazor, modals often require the component to be rendered and the JS interop to be ready before they can open reliably. If the modal is not initialized, the first click may only trigger initialization, and the second click actually opens it.

Solution:

  • Ensure that the modal/dialog component is initialized on first render.
  • If you are using a custom modal, check that the @ref is set and the modal's JS interop (if any) is initialized in OnAfterRenderAsync.
  • If you use ABP's built-in modal system, make sure you are calling StateHasChanged() after the modal is ready.

Example for a modal initialization in Blazor:

protected override async Task OnAfterRenderAsync(bool firstRender)
{
    if (firstRender)
    {
        // Initialize modal or JS interop here
        StateHasChanged();
    }
}

2. Error Messages Show by Default on Form Open

This usually happens if the form's validation state is set to "touched" or "dirty" before the user interacts with the form. In Blazor, validation messages should only appear after the user attempts to submit the form or interacts with the fields.

Solution:

  • Ensure that the form's EditContext is not being validated or marked as modified before the user interacts.
  • When opening the modal, create a new EditContext for the form model to reset validation state.
  • Do not call Validate() or set fields as touched on modal open.

Example:

private TenantCreateDto NewTenantModel = new();
private EditContext NewTenantEditContext;

void OpenNewTenantModal()
{
    NewTenantModel = new TenantCreateDto();
    NewTenantEditContext = new EditContext(NewTenantModel);
    // Open modal here
}

Bind your form to NewTenantEditContext to ensure a fresh validation state each time.

3. Error Messages Disappear After Cancel/Close and Reopen

This is because the form's state is reset when the modal is closed and reopened, which is the correct behavior. The issue is only on the first open due to the initial validation state.

4. General Recommendations

  • Always create a new model and EditContext when opening a modal for a new entity.
  • Avoid triggering validation on modal open.
  • If using ABP's modal service, ensure you are not passing a pre-validated model.

References:

These steps should resolve both the double-click issue and the premature validation messages on your Tenants page.

  • In ABP 9.x Blazor WebAssembly/WebApp projects, CSS isolation for component styles (e.g., Index.razor.css) does not work out-of-the-box in the WASM client due to the new global assets and bundling system. The isolated CSS files are not automatically included in the global bundles that are loaded by the WASM client.

  • To ensure your isolated CSS is included and applied in the WASM context, you need to explicitly add the generated CSS files to the global style bundle using a BundleContributor. Here’s how you can do it:

  1. Create a custom BundleContributor for your styles:
public class MyProjectNameStyleBundleContributor : BundleContributor
   {
       public override void ConfigureBundle(BundleConfigurationContext context)
       {
           // Add the generated CSS file for your component
           context.Files.Add("_content/MyProjectName.Blazor.Client/Index.razor.css");
       }
   }
  1. Register your contributor in your module’s ConfigureServices:
Configure<AbpBundlingOptions>(options =>
   {
       var globalStyles = options.StyleBundles.Get(BlazorWebAssemblyStandardBundles.Styles.Global);
       globalStyles.AddContributors(typeof(MyProjectNameStyleBundleContributor));
   });
  1. Ensure your .csproj for the client project includes the following so the CSS is published:
<ItemGroup>
     <Content Update="Index.razor.css">
       <CopyToOutputDirectory>PreserveNewest</CopyToOutputDirectory>
     </Content>
   </ItemGroup>
  1. Remove any manual global.css from wwwroot and rely on the bundling system.

  2. Run your application and verify that the CSS is present in /global.css (or the configured bundle) and applied in both server and WASM modes.

This approach ensures your isolated CSS is bundled and available to the WASM client, resolving the issue where styles only appear in server-side rendering.

For Blazor Server applications, ABP Framework does not provide a built-in, automatic JavaScript/CSS bundling system like the "Global Assets" feature available for Blazor WebAssembly. The documentation and referenced article specifically address Blazor WebAssembly, and the BundleContributor approach is not supported for Blazor Server.

In Blazor Server, the recommended approaches are:

  1. Use standard ASP.NET Core bundling and minification techniques, such as configuring bundles in your Startup/Program class or using third-party tools (e.g., WebOptimizer, Gulp, or Webpack) to bundle and minify your static assets.
  2. For component-specific scripts, continue using collocated JavaScript files as described in the official Blazor documentation. This is the standard way to manage per-component JS interop in Blazor Server.
  3. If you want to bundle global scripts/styles, you can manually include bundled files (created by your chosen tool) in your _Host.cshtml or Layout file.

There is currently no ABP-specific abstraction or automation for bundling static files in Blazor Server projects. The ABP bundling system and BundleContributor pattern are designed for MVC and Blazor WebAssembly scenarios.

To implement an admin page preview feature in an ABP Framework Pro MVC Core Razor application, you can leverage the CMS Kit module, which supports dynamic page creation and management. While CMS Kit provides dynamic page editing, a "Preview" workflow as described requires some customization. Here’s a step-by-step approach:

  1. Use CMS Kit Dynamic Pages

    • Enable the CMS Kit module in your solution to allow admins to create and edit dynamic pages from the dashboard.
    • Admins can add HTML content, images, and links using the built-in editor.
  2. Implement a Preview Button

    • On your page editing UI, add a "Preview" button.
    • When clicked, this button should save the current form data (without publishing) and open a new window or modal.
    • Pass the unsaved content to a preview endpoint or Razor Page.
  3. Preview Endpoint/Modal

    • Create a Razor Page or controller action that accepts the draft content (HTML, images, etc.) as input.
    • Render the content using the same layout and styles as the live site, but do not persist changes to the published database.
    • Ensure the preview is isolated and does not affect the live site.
  4. Return to Edit or Publish

    • Provide options in the preview mode to return to editing or proceed to publish.
    • Only when the admin clicks "Publish" should the content be saved as live.

Example Workflow:

  • Admin edits a page in CMS Kit.
  • Clicks "Preview" → triggers a POST to a /Pages/Preview endpoint with the current draft.
  • The preview page renders the HTML/content in the site layout.
  • Admin can close preview to return to editing, or click "Publish" to save.

Sample Razor Page Preview Action:

[HttpPost]
public IActionResult Preview(string htmlContent)
{
    // Render a view with the provided HTML content
    ViewData["PreviewContent"] = htmlContent;
    return View("Preview");
}

In Preview.cshtml:

@{
    Layout = "_YourSiteLayout";
}
<div>
    @Html.Raw(ViewData["PreviewContent"])
</div>

Notes:

  • This approach ensures the preview is accurate and does not affect the live site until published.
  • You may need to handle images and links to ensure they resolve correctly in preview mode.

  • The issue occurs because Oracle does not support the native BOOLEAN type in table columns. When ABP/EF Core tries to create tables with BOOLEAN columns, Oracle throws an error (ORA-00902: invalid datatype).

  • To resolve this, you must map boolean properties to a supported Oracle type, such as NUMBER(1) or NUMBER(10), instead of BOOLEAN.

  • ABP provides guidance for Oracle EF Core integration. You should use the Devart provider and follow the official documentation to handle type mapping issues.

  • Steps to fix:

    1. In your DbContext, override the OnModelCreating method to map all boolean properties to NUMBER(1) or NUMBER(10).
    2. Example:
protected override void OnModelCreating(ModelBuilder modelBuilder)
    {
        base.OnModelCreating(modelBuilder);

        foreach (var entityType in modelBuilder.Model.GetEntityTypes())
        {
            foreach (var property in entityType.GetProperties())
            {
                if (property.ClrType == typeof(bool) || property.ClrType == typeof(bool?))
                {
                    property.SetColumnType("NUMBER(1)");
                }
            }
        }
    }
  1. Remove any existing migrations that use BOOLEAN, re-create the migrations, and update the database.

This approach will allow your ABP application to work with Oracle without manual table edits for every boolean property.

To use SignalR behind Nginx with ABP on Linux, you need to ensure both your Nginx configuration and your application's Content Security Policy (CSP) are set up to allow WebSocket connections.

Solution:

  1. Nginx Configuration for WebSockets

    Make sure your Nginx reverse proxy forwards WebSocket connections. Add the following to your Nginx site configuration for the SignalR endpoint:

location /signalr-hubs/ {
       proxy_pass http://your_backend_server;
       proxy_http_version 1.1;
       proxy_set_header Upgrade $http_upgrade;
       proxy_set_header Connection "Upgrade";
       proxy_set_header Host $host;
       proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
       proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-Proto $scheme;
   }

Replace your_backend_server with the internal address of your SignalR service.

  1. Content Security Policy (CSP) Update

    The error message indicates your CSP is blocking wss:// connections. Update your CSP header to explicitly allow WebSocket connections from your SignalR domain. For example:

Content-Security-Policy: default-src 'self' http: https: data: blob: 'unsafe-inline'; connect-src 'self' wss://signalr.mydomain.com https://signalr.mydomain.com;

Add or update the connect-src directive to include your SignalR domain with both wss:// and https://.

  1. ABP SignalR Integration

    Ensure your SignalR hub is correctly configured in your ABP application and that the endpoint is mapped as shown in the official ABP documentation.

app.UseEndpoints(endpoints =>
   {
       endpoints.MapHub<YourHub>("/signalr-hubs/instant-message");
   });

And make sure your frontend connects to the correct URL.

References:

These steps will allow your SignalR service to work correctly behind Nginx with proper WebSocket and CSP configuration.

  • After upgrading to ABP 9, you must update your bundling configuration to use the new Global Assets system introduced in ABP 9. The previous approach to bundling (used in ABP 7) is not compatible with the new system, and manual steps are required to ensure the latest LeptonX CSS and JS bundles are loaded, especially in development mode.

Required Steps:

  1. Update Bundling Configuration:
    • Remove any old bundle contributor classes and manual global.js/global.css files.
    • In your module, configure the new bundling system using AbpBundlingOptions and add your contributors for LeptonX:
[DependsOn(
         typeof(AbpAspNetCoreMvcUiBundlingModule),
         typeof(AbpAspNetCoreMvcUiLeptonXThemeBundlingModule)
     )]
     public class YourWebModule : AbpModule
     {
         public override void ConfigureServices(ServiceConfigurationContext context)
         {
             Configure<AbpBundlingOptions>(options =>
             {
                 options.StyleBundles.Get(MvcLeptonXThemeBundles.Styles.Global)
                     .AddContributors(typeof(YourStyleBundleContributor));
                 options.ScriptBundles.Get(MvcLeptonXThemeBundles.Scripts.Global)
                     .AddContributors(typeof(YourScriptBundleContributor));
             });
         }
     }
  1. Use MapAbpStaticAssets:

    • In your Startup.cs or module initialization, replace app.UseStaticFiles() with app.MapAbpStaticAssets() to ensure virtual files (including LeptonX assets) are served correctly in .NET 9.
  2. Remove Old Bundling Artifacts:

    • Delete any global.js or global.css files from your wwwroot if they were previously generated.
    • Remove the AbpCli:Bundle section from your appsettings.json.
  3. Ensure Correct NuGet Packages:

    • Reference the latest LeptonX theme bundling package:
<PackageReference Include="Volo.Abp.AspNetCore.Mvc.UI.Theme.LeptonX.Bundling" Version="9.0.0" />
  • Also, ensure you have the correct version of Volo.Abp.AspNetCore.Mvc.UI.Bundling.
  1. Development Mode:

    • The new bundling system automatically serves the latest files in development mode. No manual bundle regeneration is needed.
  2. Check for Additional Module Bundling:

    • If you use other ABP commercial modules, add their corresponding bundling modules as dependencies.

Summary:
You must migrate your bundling configuration to the new Global Assets system, update your module dependencies, and use MapAbpStaticAssets for static file serving. This ensures the latest LeptonX bundles are loaded in ABP 9, including in development mode.

  • The error you are encountering when running dotnet dev-certs https -v -ep C:\Program Files\dotnet\myapp\openiddict.pfx ... is due to a permissions issue: the workflow is trying to write the openiddict.pfx file into C:\Program Files\dotnet\myapp, which is a protected system directory on Windows runners and does not allow write access for non-admin processes.

  • The ABP documentation recommends using ${{env.DOTNET_ROOT}}/myapp/openiddict.pfx, but on Windows runners, $DOTNET_ROOT is typically C:\Program Files\dotnet, which is not writable.

  • To fix this, change the output path for your publish and certificate generation steps to a directory that is guaranteed to be writable, such as $(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory) or a relative path like ./myapp.

How to fix:

  1. Change your publish and certificate generation steps to use a relative path (e.g., ./myapp):
- name: dotnet publish
  run: dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x64 --self-contained false -o ./myapp
  shell: pwsh
  working-directory: ./src/ArmadaIO.Web
  env:
    ASPNETCORE_ENVIRONMENT: Production

- name: Generate openiddict.pfx
  run: dotnet dev-certs https -v -ep ./myapp/openiddict.pfx -p c41eb3e7-8a8e-429f-9052-0850406f2f11
  shell: pwsh
  1. Update the artifact upload path accordingly:
- name: Upload artifact for deployment job
  uses: actions/upload-artifact@v4
  with:
    name: .net-app
    path: ./myapp

Summary:

  • Do not write to C:\Program Files\dotnet\myapp (not writable).
  • Use a relative path like ./myapp for both publish and certificate generation.
  • This will resolve the exit code 1 and allow the workflow to generate and include openiddict.pfx.

The error message:

More than one module matches. Use the '--skip-import' option to skip importing the component into the closest module or use the module option to specify a module.

indicates that the Angular schematics used by ABP Suite cannot determine which Angular module to import the generated component into, because multiple modules match the criteria.

Solution

  1. Specify the Module Explicitly
    • In your Angular project, locate the .module.ts file where you want the generated component to be imported (e.g., app.module.ts or a feature module).
    • When running the schematic (or when configuring the entity in ABP Suite), use the --module option to specify the exact module file path. For example:
--module=src/app/your-feature/your-feature.module.ts
  • If you are using ABP Suite's UI, ensure that your project structure does not have multiple modules with similar names in the same directory, or manually edit the generated command to include the --module option.
  1. Clean Up Duplicate Modules

    • Check your Angular project for multiple modules that could match the import path. Remove or rename unnecessary modules to avoid ambiguity.
  2. Workaround: Use --skip-import

    • If you do not want the component to be imported automatically, you can use the --skip-import option. You will then need to manually import the generated component into the desired module.
  3. Regenerate After Fix

    • After specifying the module or cleaning up duplicates, rerun the entity generation in ABP Suite.

Reference

This is a known issue with Angular schematics when multiple modules match. See the following for more details and workarounds:


By specifying the module explicitly or cleaning up your module structure, you should be able to resolve the error and generate Angular UI code from ABP Suite.

  • ABP Suite currently supports code generation for the services of a microservice solution, but UI code generation is not supported yet. When using the microservice template, ABP Suite generates code only for the supported layers and does not recognize or generate code for a custom Domain Layer you add to your microservices. Customizing the code generation process to include your own Domain Layer is not supported out of the box in the current version.

  • You can generate code on the service layer, but if you require code generation for a custom Domain Layer, you will need to manually integrate or adapt the generated code to fit your architecture.

  • This scenario—automatic code generation into a custom Domain Layer in microservice solutions—is not currently supported by ABP Suite.
