The follwoing code should redirect a customer after log in. Just ensure, the event “customer_login” is used in root/app/code/local/NameSpace/ModuleName/etc/config.xml file. Once the event is observed, put the following code under observer method.

 

<?php
//redirect to checkout after login
$session = Mage::getSingleton('customer/session');
if (strpos(Mage::helper('core/http')->getHttpReferer(), 'checkout/cart') === false) {
 $session->setAfterAuthUrl(Mage::getUrl('checkout/cart/index'));
} 
else {
 $session->setAfterAuthUrl(Mage::helper('core/http')->getHttpReferer());
}

If we need to redirect customer to a different page other than

checkout/cart/index

we can use any page url in Magento way frontname/controllername/action
