Nancy self host returns 404

Question

I have a console app which i want to use Nancy to host a web service. here is my Program.cs

namespace NancyConsole
{
    using Nancy.Hosting.Self;
    using System;
    internal class Program
    {
        private static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            string url = "http://localhost:1234";
            var host = new NancyHost(new Uri(url));
            host.Start();
            Console.WriteLine("Server started, now listening on " + url);
            Console.WriteLine("Press any key to stop the server...");
            Console.ReadKey();
            host.Stop();
        }
    }
}

and here is my MainModule.cs file

namespace NancyConsole
{
    using Nancy;
    internal class MainModule : NancyModule
    {
        public MainModule()
        {
            Get["/"] = x => View["Views/index.html"];
        }
    }
}

This is my project structure

When i run the project this is the error i get on the browser

I dont know where i am going wrong? Your help will be highly appreciated!

Answer 1

Make the module public. The default loading strategy uses reflection to find public module classes.

public class MainModule : NancyModule

From the documentation:

It is important that you declare your module public, otherwise NancyFx is not able to discover your module.
