ASP.NET MVC redirect to an access denied page using a custom role provider

Question

Hi!

I'm creating a custom role provider and I set a Authorize attribute specifying a role in my controller and it's working just fine, like this:

[Authorize(Roles="SuperAdmin")]
public class SuperAdminController : Controller
...

But when an user doens't have access to this controller, he's redirected to login page. How can I redirect him to a "AcessDenied.aspx" page?

Thanks!!!

Answer 1

[AccessDeniedAuthorize(Roles="SuperAdmin")]
public class SuperAdminController : Controller

AccessDeniedAuthorizeAttribute.cs:

public class AccessDeniedAuthorizeAttribute : AuthorizeAttribute
{
    public override void OnAuthorization(AuthorizationContext filterContext)
    {
        base.OnAuthorization(filterContext);

        if(filterContext.Result is HttpUnauthorizedResult)
        {
            filterContext.Result = new RedirectResult("~/AcessDenied.aspx");
        }
    }
}

Answer 2

Take a look at tvanfosson's Answer from this very similar question, This is what I am doing(Thanks to tvanfosson), so now I just have to say:

[MyAuthorize(Roles="SuperAdmin",ViewName="AccessDenied")]
public class SuperAdminController : Controller
...

If the user is not in the role, they will get thew view specified by ViewName.
