We just upgraded our CMS 2001 site to 2002 in development. We now have a dev
site that has mostly .asp template/pages and some .net aspx templates.

This is a secured forms based authentication site and we have a wierd thing
happening with the ReturnUrl.
When someone hits an asp page and is redirected to the login page the
ReturnUrl looks like a normal page address.
When someone hits an .aspx page and is redirected to the login page the
ReturnUrl looks strange and unusual. Specifically it doesn't have a typical
ReturnUrl url address, instead it's the webapp directory/
template.aspx...NRMODE...NRORIGINALURL...NRNODEGUID...NRCACHEHINT
We do have the url format set to hierarchical.

Any ideas on why the ReturnUrl on .aspx templates isn't set to a normal
looking web address?
These wierd looking urls will surely confuse our users.
Thanks
Andy

Hi Andrew,

that is normal. This is the real URL. The friendly URL you usually see is
only working because the MCMS ISAPI filter is replacing this URL with the
URL below before ASP.NET is called.
As ASP.NET only knows the unfriendly URL it cannot render links to the
friendly one.

See here for workarounds:

Cheers,
