[seam-issues] [JBoss JIRA] Commented: (SEAMFACES-126) Throw some kind of unauthorized exception when auth fails, rather than returning a 401 response

Throw some kind of unauthorized exception when auth fails, rather than returning a 401 response ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: SEAMFACES-126 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/SEAMFACES-126 Project: Seam Faces Issue Type: Enhancement Components: Exception Handling, Security, View Configuration Reporter: Brian Leathem Fix For: 3.0.1 If authorization fails, and the user is not logged in, Faces looks for a @LoginViewId to redirect to, and returns a 401 response if none is found. A similar story applies for the @AccessDeniedViewId It would be better to instead throw an exception, that Seam Catch can intercept. If not intercepted, this exception would eventually lead to a 401 response.
