Autofac with asp.net mvc 5 async

[do...@silverkeytech.com]

I got this exception 'The request lifetime scope cannot be created because the HttpContext is not available.' after switching my action to async.

foreach (var handler in DependencyResolver.Current.GetServices<Handles<T>>())

I am using Autofac.Mvc5 3.3.3 on asp.net mvc 5.2.3.

I checked on this question on StackOverflow and it mentioned that this problem should not have happened anymore

Any tips is much appreciated.

Can you provide the whole stack trace so we can see exactly where the error is occurring?

Also, can you add a breakpoint right at the foreach and see what HttpContext.Current is? (Is it null or is there a value?)

A late reply but hopefully can help somebody, It sounds like you are trying to resolve the dependency from a thread which doesn't have access to HttpContext.
