Redirect to another controller

Question

I have code in the IAuthorizationFilter that redirects the user to the login page, but I am having problems changing the controller used. Therefore i could do

public void OnAuthorization(AuthorizationContext context) { UserController u = new UserController(); context.Result = u.Login(); context.Cancel = true; } 

But this leads to

 The view 'Login' or its master could not be found. The following locations were searched: ~/Views/Product/Login.aspx ~/Views/Product/Login.ascx ~/Views/Shared/Login.aspx ~/Views/Shared/Login.ascx 

I run this from the product controller. How to force the viewer to use a user controller rather than a product controller?

Edit: I worked with

 RedirectResult r = new RedirectResult("../User.aspx/Login"); context.Result = r; context.Cancel = true; 

But this is a treasure, I am sure that there is a better way. There is disappointment in the ActionFilterAttribute. It seems that it would be useful if the dispatcher opened in the AuthorizationContext had RedirectToAction open, that would be easy.

Agree with ddc0660, you have to redirect. Do not run u.Login (), but set the context. Return to RedirectResult.
