asp.net - Ajax.Beginform + Partial view + Model state are not working together -

i have following create action method inside asp .net mvc :-

 public actionresult createvmnetwork(int vmid)         {             vmassignips vmips = new vmassignips()             {                 technologyip = new technologyip() { technologyid = vmid},                 istmsipunique = true,                 istmsmacunique = true             };             return partialview("_createvmnetwork",vmips);         } 

which render following partial view:-

    @model tms.viewmodels.vmassignips      @using (ajax.beginform("createvmnetwork", "virtualmachine", new ajaxoptions      {         insertionmode = insertionmode.insertafter,         updatetargetid = "networktable",         loadingelementid = "loadingimag",         httpmethod= "post"     }))     {            @html.validationsummary(true)            @html.hiddenfor(model=>model.technologyip.technologyid)         <div> <span class="f">ip address</span>   @html.editorfor(model => model.technologyip.ipaddress) @html.validationmessagefor(model => model.technologyip.ipaddress)                                                   <input type="checkbox" name="istmsipunique" value="true" @(html.raw(model.istmsmacunique ? "checked=\"checked\"" : "")) /> |   <span class="f"> mac address</span>        @html.editorfor(model => model.technologyip.macaddress) @html.validationmessagefor(model => model.technologyip.macaddress)                                                 <input type="checkbox" name="istmsmacunique" value="true" @(html.raw(model.istmsmacunique ? "checked=\"checked\"" : "")) />  </div>               <input type="submit" value="save" class="btn btn-primary"/>     } 

inside following main view, after clicking on ajax.actionlink:-

@ajax.actionlink("add network info", "createvmnetwork","virtualmachine",     new { vmid = model.virtualmachine.tmsvirtualmachineid },     new ajaxoptions {  insertionmode = insertionmode.replace,  updatetargetid = "assignnetwork"  ,  loadingelementid = "progress"   } )     </p> <p><img src="~/content/ajax-loader-bar.gif" class="loadingimage" id="progress" /></p> <div id ="assignnetwork"></div> 

then when clicking on “save” button call following action method:-

[httppost]         public actionresult createvmnetwork(vmassignips vmip)         { if (modelstate.isvalid)  { try { repository.insertorupdatevmips(vmip.technologyip,user.identity.name); repository.save(); return partialview("_networkrow",vmip);  } catch (exception ex) { modelstate.addmodelerror(string.empty, "error occurred: " + ex.innerexception.message); }} return partialview("_createvmnetwork", vmip);  } 

when render following partial view _networkrow:-

@model tms.viewmodels.vmassignips <tr id="@model.technologyip.id">     <td> @model.technologyip.ipaddress</td>       <td>@model.technologyip.macaddress</td>     <td>@ajax.actionlink("delete",  "deletenetworkinfo", "virtualmachine", new { id = model.technologyip.id },  new ajaxoptions { confirm = "are sure want delete (" + model.technologyip.ipaddress + ")" + "( " + model.technologyip.macaddress + ").",     httpmethod = "post",      onsuccess = "deletionconfirmation",     onfailure = "deletionerror" })</td>     </tr> 

all above work fine unless model state error or exception occurred , in case table updated partial view , model state displayed under table fields. need display model state error on same original view. need ajax.begin form update table if no exception or model state errors occured, , display error message inside original partial view, not under table.

can advice on how solve issue?

i don't question clearly, think should place <div> view want show errors.

then, if got errors on processing, push error messages through viewbag model.

so, action method become this:

[httppost] public actionresult createvmnetwork(vmassignips vmip) { if (modelstate.isvalid) {     try     {         repository.insertorupdatevmips(vmip.technologyip,user.identity.name);         repository.save();         return partialview("_networkrow",vmip);     }     catch (exception ex)     {         viewbag.errormessage = "some messages...";         // other info     } }  return partialview("_createvmnetwork", vmip);  } 

and in view this:

<div>     <p>@viewbag.errormessage</p> </div> 

so, if you got errors, they'll shown in
