ThreadAbortException, Classic ASP and ASP.NET MVC apps

Question

I am also getting that "Thread was being aborted" error message.

I know that this is an old issue but I don't think it's a redirect thing (at least no inside .NET because I don't have Response.Redirects there - only RedirectResults that would call Response.Redirect(url, false) internally)* and I don't think it's a recycling issue due to inactivity either.

It's happening in different scenarios but one that called my attention was: I have a window.open(url) being called inside a classic asp page. This url maps to a ASP.NET MVC controller action**. SOMETIMES when this window.open occurs I am getting a ThreadAbortException.

Could someone help me?

Just confirming... it was a deployment problem.
