Hello,

Redirect not working if exit; used after redirect. If i removed exit then i will work. Why it is not working with exit?




public function actionRd() {

	

	   $this->redirect("http://stackoverflow.com");

           exit;

     }

Try




public function actionRd()

{

    return $this->redirect("http://stackoverflow.com");

}

Hi Bizley,

I know that this is working but why it is not working when i put exit after $this->redirect() call.

Because without return this method does not send any headers to the browser. You need to call


Yii::$app->getResponse()->send()

in this case.
