[c#] ASP.NET file download from server

After a user clicks a button, I want a file to be downloaded. I've tried the following which seems to work, but not without throwing an exception (ThreadAbort) which is not acceptable.

    System.Web.HttpResponse response = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response;
    response.ClearContent();
    response.Clear();
    response.ContentType = "text/plain";
    response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileName + ";");
    response.TransmitFile(Server.MapPath("FileDownload.csv"));
    response.Flush();
    response.End();  

protected void DescargarArchivo(string strRuta, string strFile)
{
    FileInfo ObjArchivo = new System.IO.FileInfo(strRuta);
    Response.Clear();
    Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + strFile);
    Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", ObjArchivo.Length.ToString());
    Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
    Response.WriteFile(ObjArchivo.FullName);
    Response.End();


}

Further to Karl Anderson solution, you could put your parameters into session information and then clear them after response.TransmitFile(Server.MapPath( Session(currentSessionItemName)));.

See MSDN page HttpSessionState.Add Method (String, Object) for more information on sessions.

Try this set of code to download a CSV file from the server.

byte[] Content= File.ReadAllBytes(FilePath); //missing ;
Response.ContentType = "text/csv";
Response.AddHeader("content-disposition", "attachment; filename=" + fileName + ".csv");
Response.BufferOutput = true;
Response.OutputStream.Write(Content, 0, Content.Length);
Response.End();

Making changes as below and redeploying on server content type as

Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream";

This worked for me.

Response.Clear(); 
Response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + file.Name); 
Response.AddHeader("Content-Length", file.Length.ToString()); 
Response.ContentType = "application/octet-stream"; 
Response.WriteFile(file.FullName); 
Response.End();

Simple solution for downloading a file from the server:

protected void btnDownload_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string FileName = "Durgesh.jpg"; // It's a file name displayed on downloaded file on client side.

            System.Web.HttpResponse response = System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response;
            response.ClearContent();
            response.Clear();
            response.ContentType = "image/jpeg";
            response.AddHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + FileName + ";");
            response.TransmitFile(Server.MapPath("~/File/001.jpg"));
            response.Flush();
            response.End();
        }
