Re: GetUser.ProviderUserKey gives me System.NullReferenceException

The authentication principal won't get set until the next request to the
web-server. That's why GetUser returns. But you can use the "UserName"
property of the Login control
within the LoggedIn event to identify the user. With this name, you can use
Membership.GetUser(userName).

Using asp.net membership. My login.aspx page goes to the
loginredirect.aspx page after the user logs in.

For some reason "Membership.GetUser.ProviderUserKey.ToString" gives me
this error:
System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of
an object. at loginredirect.Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e)

Any reason why? I should be logged in fine.

Is there another way in which I should get the current users UserId?
