Hi,

While I'm an ASPX beginner, I've developed and maintained an ASP 3.0 app. So I wanted to try redirection to ASPX from ASP.

The client-side one via Response.Redirect looks OK. However, Server.Transfer fails:
<%@ Language=VBScript %>
<%
Dim url
url="default.aspx"
Server.Transfer url
%>

The error message is "Invalid @ Command directive" that refers to the first line in default.aspx:
<%@ Page language="c#" Codebehind="default.aspx.cs" AutoEventWireup="false" Inherits="weblog._default" %>

Does it mean that the server-side redirection can't be used here or some special configuration is needed?

Thanks,
Lev

This is my self-response:
The "Microsoft .NET/COM Migration and Interoperability" article found on MSDN reads:

"You cannot use Server.Transfer and Server.Execute between ASP and ASP .NET pages. For interactions between the two environments, use Response.Redirect instead."

The reason why is that ASP page was interpreted by IIS while ASPX page is executed by aspnet_wp.exe process. These process are absolutely isolated and cannot share info.

...but the Soon is eclipsed by the Moon

Thanks for your clarification.

Regards,
Lev
