q; Server.Transfer problem

[JIM.H.]

I have an asp.net solution and one asp.net and a few asp projects included
to this solution.
I try to redirect from my asp.net page to asp page with Server.Transfer, I
get the following error:

Invalid path for child request
'http://IPAddess/MyAspNetApp/MyASPSite/index.asp'. A virtual path is
expected.

If I use Response.Redirect it does not go to the page. If I copy paste the
link in IE I am able to get the page.
Where is the problem?

Server.Transfer cannot tranfer to an external page, which is why it says you
must use a virtual path.

Response.Redirect and Server.Transfer, while they seem to achieve the same
goal, are very different beasts. Here's a decent writeup:

Gregory thank you very much for your help. Why would Response.Redirect not
going to that page though. I do not get any error either, it just does not go
and stays in the current page.
