[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - [SeamPhaseListener] swallowing exception

Tuesday, 22 January 2008

hi,
I have added some restrictions taking into consideration the user's roles to access
some pages. They work ok and when the org.jboss.seam.security.AuthorizationException
appears the flow is redirected properly.
Howewer I find that the very first time after starting the server or deploying if I try to
access with a not authorized user to a forbidden page the AuthorizationException is
swallowed, access to the page is granted and there is no redirection to error page.
The trace is this:

13:32:38,218 ERROR [SeamPhaseListener] uncaught exception

But the following times I try to acces to a forbidden page, restrictions work properly, in
this cases the trace is this

So the following times there is no exception swallowing.

In pages.xml the exception is defined this way:

I wonder why is this happening and if there is a way to solve it with configuration.

  | ...
  |     <page view-id="/FirmEdit.xhtml">
  |         <restrict>#{authenticator.adminGral}</restrict>
  |     </page>    
  | ...
  |     <exception
class="org.jboss.seam.security.AuthorizationException">
  |          <redirect view-id="/error2.xhtml">
  |             <message>You don't have permission to do this -
AuthorizationException!!</message>
  |         </redirect>
  |     </exception>    
  | ...
  | 

And my Authenticator.java has this method:

  |     public boolean isAdminGral() {
  |         return identity.hasRole("adminGral");
  |     }    
  | 

Tha fact of it working properly except the first time after starting the server or
deploying is that puzzles me. why is then and only then the exception swallowed?
thanks in advance!
