myhub.cs:

  public class ChatHub : Hub
{
 private static DataTable ConnectedClientDt = null;

  public void ConnectClient(string ClientName)
  {
    if (ConnectedClientDt == null)
    {
        ConnectedClientDt = new DataTable();

        $.connection.hub.start().done(function () {
            chat.server.ConnectClient(clientName);

        });

Solution

  • Change the name to lowercase. ConnectClient should be connectClient. It can be confusing at first be we make the names javascript friendly names (camel case)
