Send a 403 response

[Diego Manilla Suárez <di...@xeridia.com>]

Hi! I need to implement some kind of security inside of an Action. When 
the user doesn't meet certain criteria, I must send him to the 
"forbidden" page. Right now I'm doing this:

if (!allowed) {
    response.sendError(HttpServletResponse.SC_FORBIDDEN);
    return null;
}

The problem is that the user is sent to the default error page of 
Tomcat, instead of the 403 page defined in web.xml. Are the lines above 
wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Ok, I found the problem: there was a filter that wasn't forwarding the 
error.
