Spring Security 3 - always return error 302

Question

I use Spring 4 to create a simple application. Recently, I\'m adding Spring Security 3 to the project but always get the Error Code 302 ( so it redirect to home

Answer 1

For me I came from a little different use-case but 'suddenly' had the same problem before it perfectly worked.
My Setup Spring with a ExtJs frontend where I now build in a rest interface.
It all worked super nice and then suddenly I started having http status 302 responses (WTH?)

Since I implemented by code by following this example: https://octoperf.com/blog/2018/03/08/securing-rest-api-spring-security/
there is a declaration of a SimpleUrlAuthenticationSuccessHandler.
See 4.4 SecurityConfig where the TokenAuthenticationFilter is constructed with a class NoRedirectStrategy; see 4.1 Redirect Strategy

In turn not having this NoRedirectStrategy set up in my extension of the AbstractAuthenticationProcessingFilter it would show me http 302 responses.
