I am using Server.Transfer. Everything works fine, but exception log shows following exception.
System.Threading.ThreadAbortException: Thread was being aborted.
at System.Threading.Thread.AbortInternal()
at System.Threading.Thread.Abort(Object stateInfo)
at System.Web.HttpResponse.End()
at System.Web.HttpServerUtility.Transfer(String path, Boolean preserveForm)
at System.Web.HttpServerUtility.Transfer(String path)
Any idea to avoid above exception.
This exception is throw by the call to Server.Transfer
in order to halt the execution of the current method - exactly the same thing gets thrown if you do Response.Redirect
.
The two choices you have are:
- Catch and rethrow the
ThreadAbortException / reperform the
Server.Transfer
- Make sure that you
only do
Server.Transfer
in places
where it wont be caught (recommended)
EDIT: Scratch that, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/312629 has a couple of other suggestions to try, but I still recommend #2 above.
Another way to solve this, is to catch the generated error and to not rethrow it:
catch (ThreadAbortException)
{
}
Caling Server.Transfer will call Response.End which always throws a ThreadAbortException. This is a "special" exception because while it can be caught in a catch block, it will always be re thrown at the end of the catch block. I would have your error logging ignore ThreadAbortExceptions.
This problem occurs in the Response.Redirect and Server.Transfer methods because both methods call Response.End internally.
Solution for this Problem is as follows.
For Server.Transfer, use the Server.Execute method instead.

Replacing Response.End() by the following helped fix the problem.
Response.Flush();
Response.Close();
Refer Can we use Response.Flush () instead of Response.End()
Replace Response.End()
With HttpContext.Current.ApplicationInstance.CompleteRequest();
