eventscontroller.cs

  public actionresult index()     {         return view(db.events.tolist());     } 

homecontroller.cs

[httppost]     public actionresult index(datetime date)     {              date dt = new date();             dt.startdate = date;             db.dates.add(dt);                db.savechanges();             return redirecttoaction("index", "events", new { id = dt.dateid });     } 

your index action of events controller not have parameter recieve dateid value.it unable find action recieve dateid val.

you need either modify existing action or add action overload this

public actionresult index(datetime dateid) {     //do val }  public actionresult index() {     return view(db.events.tolist()); }
