Question
I am using ASP.NET membership, and in particular a copy of the membership code included in the MVC project. I am also using elmah to log exceptions. I am getting flooded with the following when people sign out.
System.Web.HttpException: Server cannot set status after HTTP headers have been sent.
Here is the stack trace sent
System.Web.HttpException: Server cannot set status after HTTP headers have been sent.

at System.Web.HttpApplication.CallHandlerExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute()
at System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously)
I cannot seem to find any reason for this. It is not causing an issue for end users, but would still like to resolve/learn about it.
Thanks for any help or guidance.
Solution
I have found and fixed the problem. I am using a UseSSL attribute, which redirects any action for the controller to switch to https. When I removed that it works fine, I really don't need SSL on sign out, so I applied the attribute to all other actions and not the controller and it stops the exception from occurring.
