Migration to IIS8 on Windows 2012 Server - Remote Post now shows a blank page
Question
I have recently moved a V2.20 nopCommerce website that was running on IIS6 on Windows 2003 server to IIS8 running on Windows 2012 server and now when the remote post is performed for the WorldPay module, all I see is a blank, white screen?
I have a feeling that this isn't limited to the WorldPay module or indeed nopCommerce and is more of an MVC issue with code that was developed in an earlier version of ASP.Net running on ASP.Net 4.5.
So does anyone have any ideas or resolutions as to why a remote post will not work, see example code below of the remote post, the form when it is written to the HTTP context just doesn't seem to fire the body onload event.
using System.Collections.Specialized;
using System.Web;
using Nop.Core;
using Nop.Core.Infrastructure;
namespace Nop.Web.Framework

_httpContext.Response.End();

_webHelper.IsPostBeingDone = true;
}

After much searching I came across the following post:
ASP.NET MVC 3 - Replacing HttpContext Response Not Working
It turns out Response.Close() doesn't work quite as expected and can sometimes lose data, so the recommendation is to use the following line of code instead:
HttpContext.Current.ApplicationInstance.CompleteRequest();
I tried this and instantly the RemotePost started working again. Another useful article to read about why Response.Close() doesn't always work as expected is below.
