RedirectFromLoginPage problem

[Alessandro]

I developed a site with a reserved section based on roles, when I try to access that page i got redirected correctly to the loginpage and on the address bar i see
the ReturnUrl containig the address to point to:

http://localhost/SiteName/login.aspx?ReturnUrl=%2fSiteName%
2fadministrator%2fdefault.aspx

administrator/default.aspx is the page I have to reach
I authenticate succesfully but when the following instruction executes without error:
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(user, chkRemember.Checked)
i still remain in the same page, only user and pwd disappear

the address in the bar is still the same....

otherwise if i submit incorrect user o pwd I got an error that indicates the redirect correctly fails:
If AuthenticateUser(userEncoded, pwdEncoded, roles) Then
FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage("@" & ruoli, chkRemember.Checked)

Else
lblLogin.Text = "Access denied!"
End If


Any idea?

Thanks
Alessandro

I had a similar problem and I finally found that in my web.config the forms authentication tag had requireSSL="true" which, it turns out, sets a property on the authorization cookie "Secure=true" which, it turns out, means if you're request is not over SSL (HTTPS) then the cookie will not be actually passed to the client! Change the web.config to requireSSL="false" and see if that fixes your problem.

I just spent several hours fighting with this same issue and finally discovered the problem. In my case, my "SignIn" page began life as "default.aspx" and had been renamed to SignIn.aspx. However, the "Inherits" property of the "@Page" directive at the top of the page still referred to "default", and the codebehind defined a partial class named "default" instead of SignIn. When I changed the "Inherits" property to match the name of the page ("Signin"), and changed the name of the class in the codebehind to match as well, it worked.

Hope this helps save someone the time I just wasted. :(
