DatabaseServerLogin: Tomcat HTTP Status 403 for incorrect ro

[mindyp]

Hello,
I'm using JBoss 3.0.0 bundled with Tomcat 4.0.3.
I'm trying to used form base authentication with a DatabaseServerLogin module. When I enter an incorrect user or password, the form takes me to the error page. However, when I enter a correct user/ password with an incorrect role, I get the following:
Apache Tomcat/4.0.3 - HTTP Status 403 - Access to the requested resource has been denied
type Status report
message Access to the requested resource has been denied
description Access to the specified resource (Access to the requested resource has been denied) has been forbidden.

Why am I taken to this page instead of my error page, and how can I configure it to take me to my error page?

Thanks.

It's exactly what happen to me (the only difference: I'm using Jetty-JBoss)

Finally figured this one out. An error page can be specified in the web.xml file for each error code:

<error-page>
<error-code>403</error-code>
/WrongRoleErrorPage.jsp
</error-page>

Thanks mindyp,
this is real appreciated! :) I was stuck with this for a while! hehe..

another question though.. is it possible to generate our own error codes and catch them the same way? I would assume we can. I have'nt got time to look into this yet though, so if you already know the anwser and how to do it, I would appreciate it if you could share it with me! :)
