How to use response.redirect in a custom class

HI

I am using this code inside of a BLL Class:

Try
smtp.Send(correo)
HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("pedido_completado.aspx")
Catch ex As Exception
'MsgBox("ERROR: " & ex.Message)
HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("Error: " & ex.Message)
End Try

And everything is working pretty well (the mail is sent) except for the fact that when the line with the httpContext is executed appears a web page that informs "IE cannot show the page", just if the internet connection was lost.

¿Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi,
What's the location of the "pedido_Completado" web page?
If, for example, is in the root folder, it should be redirected like the following (note the ~/ at the beginning)
Response.Redirect("~/pedido_completado.aspx")
If it's inside some folder, just add the path, but make sure to have the ~ sign at the beginning. It tell asp.net to map the relative name of the web page to an absolute path.

HI Juan

I have tried but didn´t work

Hi dimensionav,
Can you please tell me what's the path for "pedido_completado.aspx", relative to the root folder?\
The error you are getting is because the file is not found, so we need to make sure that the path is corect.

add system.web reference in your class and use this

HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("Your page")

Gyanendra Singh

added to above try this to get url of your application
remoteUrl= ParseURL(context.Request.Url.AbsoluteUri);

and add your page name with string manipulation

Juan:

the path is the root app folder, and the BLL class files are inside App_Code/BLL

BondinASP, These are my class references:

Imports System.Web
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.OleDb
Imports System.Web.Services
Imports System.Web.Services.Protocols
Imports System.Collections.Generic
Imports DAV.TiendaEnLinea.v1.DataAccessLayer

And this is the way I am calling response:

Try
smtp.Send(correo)
HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("pedido_completado.aspx")
Catch ex As Exception
HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("Error: " & ex.Message)
End Try

right you need to replace this App_Code/BLL with your path .. suppose your page inside xyz foler so it should be ( inplace of App_Code/BLL) xyz/yr pagename ..

moseack,
Using the HttpResponse object from a class is perfectly fine. I still think that the problem is that the path is incorrect, so, as you suggested, Fiddler is a good idea.

BondinASP,
But the page is in the root folder, so both HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("pedido_completado.aspx") or HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("~/pedido_completado.aspx")should work.

I have tried resolving the URL trough the GUI layer and it worked, so I´ll try fiddler tomorrow.

I really appreciate your help guys!

dimensionav,
What happens if you go to the browser and manually type http://yoursite/pedido_completado.aspx? Do you get the same IE error page?

dimensionav

ASKER

it works, because pedido_completado.aspx is basically an advice that the email has been sent to the user´s account.

Juan_Barrera

Then I have to say I'm lost, added to the fact that you say it's working from the GUI :).
I use Response.Redirect from my classes and never had this problem, and, besides, there is no reason for having it. Anyway, I'm glad you get it working!

Gyanendra Singh

Gud .. its working for you :)
