Question

I am using VS2005 C# ASP.NET 2.0.

I have used role management in the web.config with the following code snippet:

`<location path="Administrator">
    <system.web>
        <authorization>
            <allow roles="Administrator"/>
            <deny users="*" />
        </authorization>
    </system.web>
</location>`

However, when a user with no roles assigned tries to login, they are redirected to the custom error page which I have defined:

<customErrors defaultRedirect="~/Error/UnexpectedError.aspx" mode="On">
<error statusCode="404" redirect="~/Error/PageNotFound.aspx"/>
</customErrors>

My defaultRedirect page are for handling unexpected errors in my code.

May I know if there is an error code which I can use to redirect users who are registered but have no role assigned tries to login to another page instead of my default error page ?

Answer 1

you can use the defaultUrl attribute of the form tag in the web config file that way every time a user that has not enough privilages to access your files will be redirect to the defaultUrl Page.
