System.ArgumentException while setting HttpContext.Current.User

Hi,

I am trying to configure one http module(a vb module) on MOSS site.
In this module I have entry like below:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers

 
Dim roles As String() = Nothing

Dim webIdentity As New GenericIdentity(OracleUser, "Form")

Dim principal As New GenericPrincipal(webIdentity, roles)

HttpContext.Current.User = principal

System.Web.Security.FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name.ToString, False)

Due to this I am getting 500 internal server and exception on browser is: Exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' was thrown.
Parameter name: encodedValue

If I comment "HttpContext.Current.User" related two lines then it redirect to form login.

please let me know if there is anything wrong related to these settings.
