Solution 1

Response.Redirect("~/<controllername>");</controllername>

or

Response.Redirect("~/<controllername>/Index");</controllername>

'controllername' being the foldername of your index.cshtml file.

But if you don't know this stuff I can seriusly suggest taking a tutorial on www.asp.net

Solution 2

To start off with, Global.asax isn't a page. It's a global handler for application level events in ASP.net and certain WCF scenarios.

There are a number of ways to redirect:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.web.mvc.controller.redirecttoaction%28v=vs.100%29.aspx[^]

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms524309%28v=vs.90%29.aspx[^]

You wouldn't redirect directly to a view in MVC though. Without seeing more of your code it's difficult, but I've always found using RedirectToAction fits the bill with MVC.

thanks buddy,

This RedirectToAction is working from controller page. But i want to redirect from global.asax.cs to index.cshtml page. So, its not working properly. Kindly give me any other better solution.

Then at least click on the second link where it's all about Response.Redirect
