Delete Api not working

Question

Hi

 

I have below code. when i type in Url - http://localhost:40991/api/Employees/DeleteEmployee?id=1

 

It is going in public HttpResponseMessage GetEmployee(int id) . Why so

public class EmployeesController : ApiController
{
private PMDbEntities db = new PMDbEntities();
// GET: api/Employees
public IHttpActionResult GetEmployees()
{
try
{
var results = (from d in db.Employees
join f in db.Departments
on d.DepartmentId equals f.ID
select new
{
Id = d.ID,
Name = d.Name,
Department = f.Description
}).ToList();
if (results == null)
{
return NotFound();
}
return Ok(results);
}
catch (Exception)
{
return BadRequest();
}
}
[ResponseType(typeof(Employee))]
public HttpResponseMessage GetEmployee(int id)
{
Employee employee = db.Employees.Find(id);
if (employee == null)
{
return Request.CreateErrorResponse(HttpStatusCode.NotFound,"Employee Code : " + id + "not found");
}
//return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK,employee);
return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK);
}
// DELETE: api/Employees/5
// [ResponseType(typeof(Employee))]
public IHttpActionResult DeleteEmployee(int id)
{
try
{
Employee employee = db.Employees.Find(id);
if (employee == null)
{
return Content(HttpStatusCode.NotFound, "Employee not found");
}
else
{
db.Employees.Remove(employee);
db.SaveChanges();
return Ok();
//(employee);
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
return BadRequest("Error Encountered : " + ex);
}
}
}

Thanks
