ReturnUrl issue with asp.net mvc
asp.net, asp.net-mvc, c#
Solution
ReturnUrl is added during an unauthorized redirect. Someone appears to be redirecting the root url (/) to itself or to Home/Index. %2f is the encoded form of "/".
I would check the authorization section of the web.config for something that looks wrong.
Problem
I have to deal with a legacy asp.net mvc app, which is not configured as I am used to. After a normal logout via: ``` FormsAuthentication.SignOut(); ``` and ``` return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home"); ``` the URI contains: ``` ReturnUrl=%2f ``` This is not usually the case. How can I suppress this? Alternatively, when I try to access a page that requires authentication/authorization the login page appears but no appropriate ReturnUrl= is generated (i.e. the URI stays as it is). Is this an IIS issue, which I have read somewhere, or is the asp.net FormsAuthenticationModule not properly configured? Thanks.
