ASP.Net MVC 5 w/identity 2.2.0 Log off not working

Question

I am using a the basic login on a test ASP.Net MVC 5 site (for an internet site).

The login works fine but when I try to logout it doesn't happen. The logout link does call the following controller action:

public ActionResult LogOff() {     AuthenticationManager.SignOut();     return RedirectToAction("Index", "Home"); } 

But the user stays logged in. How do I ensure that the user actually gets logged out?

Answer 1

I had this problem before, change:

AuthenticationManager.SignOut(); 

To:

AuthenticationManager.SignOut(DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie); 

Assuming that you are using ApplicationCookie to store your login information.
