Try "~/CommonPages/loginPage.aspx"

Commands like Response.Redirect() and a lot of other server side controls
interpret "~/" as application root. Be careful that you dont do something
like this:

<A href="~/CommonPages/loginPage.aspx">Login</a>
because the users machine won't know ~/

Instead, i think this would work:
<A href='<%# ~/CommonPages/loginPage.aspx %>'>Login</a>
