I have checked that no matter to what restricted page you are attempting to acces, first time exception is swallowed (for instance to a.xml), second time yo try to view a restricted page exception is not swallowed. So, you do not have to acces twice eahc restricted page, and this only first time after staring server or deplying. With following users or sessions it does not happen. any idea? thank you!
