I have two web site Web1 and Web2 on same server and same IIS.

Is there any way I can do Server.Transfer() to get Web2 site Page from Web1 site.

Web1 Site code:

    protected void btnGoToWeb2Page_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
       Server.Transfer("http://localhost:84/Home.aspx");
    }

This is not working. Please help.

Server. Trasfer works only for pages within the same website. If you want to transfer to another website you need to use Response. Redirect as in code below. 

Response.Redirect("http://localhost/website2/somepage.aspx")

  • Thanks for reply. I know I can do Response.Redirect to redirect to other website page on same app server. Is there any way I can do Server.Transfer() to get Web2 site Page from Web1 site. – user3540425 Dec 01 '17 at 09:55
  • No. Server.Transfer uses the current HttpContext and each website will have its own context in which it runs. One way, which you could try, is have another page called `ipage.aspx` in the same website `website1` as original page. In this page, add an iframe with `src='http://localhost:84/Home.aspx` and make sure the iframe fills the full page in browser. Then in your C# code when you say `Server.Transfer(http://localhost/website1/ipage.aspx')` it will automatically render your other website page. – Sunil Dec 01 '17 at 10:13
