ToolTip="User Name is required." ValidationGroup="mainSignUp">*</asp:RequiredFieldValidator> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="right"> <asp:Label ID="PasswordLabel" runat="server" AssociatedControlID="Password">Password:</asp:Label> </td> <td> <asp:TextBox ID="Password" runat="server" BorderStyle="None" BorderWidth="1px" CssClass="signUpTextBox" Height="39px" TextMode="Password" Width="197px"></asp:TextBox> <asp:RequiredFieldValidator ID="PasswordRequired" runat="server" ControlToValidate="Password" ErrorMessage="Password is required."

ValidationGroup="mainSignUp">*</asp:RequiredFieldValidator> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="2"> <asp:CompareValidator ID="PasswordCompare" runat="server" ControlToCompare="Password" ControlToValidate="ConfirmPassword" Display="Dynamic" ErrorMessage="The Password and Confirmation Password must match." ValidationGroup="mainSignUp"></asp:CompareValidator> </td> </tr> <tr> <td align="center" colspan="2" style="color:Red;"> <asp:Literal ID="ErrorMessage" runat="server" EnableViewState="False"></asp:Literal> </td> </tr> </table> </ContentTemplate> </asp:CreateUserWizardStep> <asp:CompleteWizardStep ID="CompleteWizardStep1" runat="server" /> </WizardSteps> </asp:CreateUserWizard> 

and the code behind:

 public partial class Default3 : System.Web.UI.Page 

{protected void Page_Load (object sender, EventArgs e) {}

 protected void redirect(object sender, EventArgs e) { FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(USER_NAME, true); Response.Redirect("copyPastPage.aspx"); } 

}

early

Answer 1

 FormsAuthentication.RedirectFromLoginPage(mainSignUp.UserName, true); 

Put the above line inside the redirect method and delete these two lines and let us know if this helps

Answer 2

After successful registration, simply use this line:

 FormsAuthentication.SetAuthCookie(USER_NAME, true); 

the true at the end means (from official documentation):

true to create a persistent cookie (which is stored in browser sessions); otherwise false.

Answer 3

If you use the CreateUserWizard control to register a user, you can set the LoginCreatedUser property to true to automatically log in after registration is completed.
