Answer 1

Come across this question, it helped me solve my problem, below is my code:

public class CustomHttp403ForbiddenEntryPoint implements AuthenticationEntryPoint {

    @Override
    public void commence(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response,
            AuthenticationException authException) throws IOException, ServletException {
        response.getWriter().print("You need to login first in order to perform this action.");
    }

}

public class CustomAccessDeniedHandler implements AccessDeniedHandler {

    @Override
    public void handle(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response, AccessDeniedException arg2)
            throws IOException, ServletException {
        response.getWriter().print("You don't have required role to perform this action.");
    }

}

---

@Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {

    http.exceptionHandling().accessDeniedHandler(new CustomAccessDeniedHandler()).and()
        .exceptionHandling().authenticationEntryPoint(new CustomHttp403ForbiddenEntryPoint());
}

Hope this helps.
