Hi,

I have developed a custom module to handle registration for one of my clients.  I couldn't use the core registration control (even if I had added new profile properties) - because they wanted extensive customizations.

In the module, all the required validation is performed, and the user is registered and signed-in programatically. 

After the registration, I try to re-direct to another page on the site with this code:

 

***************

Protected Sub cmdRegister_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdRegister.Click
            Call UpdateDatabase()  'this adds/updates the user - and signs them on if it is a new user

            Dim intPageRedirect As Integer = 0
            Try

                Dim objController As New DotNetNuke.Entities.Tabs.TabController
                Dim objInfo As DotNetNuke.Entities.Tabs.TabInfo = objController.GetTabByName("Home", PortalId)
                intPageRedirect = CType(objInfo.TabID, Integer)

                If Me.hiddenURL.Value = "RETURNING" Then
                    Response.Redirect(DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.NavigateURL(intPageRedirect))
                Else
                    Dim objInfo1 As DotNetNuke.Entities.Tabs.TabInfo = objController.GetTabByName("Thanks", PortalId)
                    Response.Redirect(DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.NavigateURL(CType(objInfo1.TabID, Integer)))

                End If
            Catch ex As Exception
                Response.Redirect(DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.NavigateURL(intPageRedirect))
            End Try
        End Sub

 *******************

 

I get a {System.Threading.ThreadAbortException} on this line:

Response.Redirect(DotNetNuke.Common.Globals.NavigateURL(CType(objInfo1.TabID, Integer)))

... and the user is re-directed back to the Home Page - and they are signed-on to the portal

Any ideas why this is happening?

Response.Redirect throws a ThreadAbortException so that the rest of the thread will stop execution.  This is supposed to happen.  You can use the overload of Response.Redirect that takes a boolean, so that it won't stop the thread's execution, however that could lead to code you don't intend to executing code you don't intend to.  ThreadAbortException is special in that even if you catch it, it will rethrow itself at the end of a catch block, so you can't do much to keep it from clogging up your Event Logs.

Hope it helps,
