spring-security & jersey: no automatic redirection to the login site

I ran into the following problem using spring-security 3.0.3 with jersey 1.2:

when i annotate my Jersey Resources with the @Secured or @PreAuthorize Annotations, spring-security does not autoredirect the user-agent to the login page as i want it to. Only the AuthenticationCredentialsNotFoundException gets thrown and开发者_如何学Python a HTTP 500 gets returned to the user-agent instead of a redirection to spring-security's form login page. Does anyone know why this problem occurs?

Resource:

@Path("/event")
@Component
public class EventResource extends AbstractBaseResource {

     @Resource(name = "eventService")
     private EventService eventService;

     public void setEventService(EventService eventService) {
         this.eventService = eventService;
     }

 @GET
 @Path("/view/{id}")
 @Produces(MediaType.TEXT_HTML)
 @PreAuthorize("hasRole('ROLE_USER')")
 public Viewable viewEvent(@PathParam("id") long id) throws UnsupportedEncodingException, URISyntaxException{
            ...
        }
}

Thank you!

This was a problem with spring-security 3.0.3. After switching to spring-security 3.0.5 everything works as expected.

Could it be due to the login page itself getting filtered by spring security? One way to check would be to try adding a line similar to

<intercept-url pattern="/login.jsp*" filters="none"/>

add the following filer to web.xml

<filter>
        <filter-name>Acegi Filter Chain Proxy</filter-name>
        <filter-class>org.springframework.security.util.FilterToBeanProxy</filter-class>
        <init-param>

            <param-name>targetClass</param-name>
            <param-value>org.springframework.security.util.FilterChainProxy</param-value>
        </init-param>
    </filter>

update the context file with:

<security:intercept-url pattern="/login*" access="IS_AUTHENTICATED_ANONYMOUSLY"/>
<security:form-login login-page="/login.htm" 
                             login-processing-url="/yourprocessingurl.do" 
                             default-target-url="/index.htm" 
                             authentication-failure-url="/login.htm" />
<security:logout logout-url="/logout" logout-success-url="/logout.jsp" />
<security:anonymous key="anonymous-security" />
