Description John J. Barton CLA 2011-02-12 12:18:44 EST 
The current 403 page is
-------------
HTTP ERROR 403

Problem accessing /file/A/extensions/dyne/branches/dyne0.1/doc/index.html. Reason:

    FORBIDDEN

Powered by Jetty://
-------------

The page should:
  tell you what user-id you are currently using (eg openid johnjbarton)
  explain that the user-id for the requested page does not match 
  link to the login and to the navigator page

It is not only html calls. I would also improve xhr calls handling.
Comment 2 Malgorzata Janczarska CLA 2011-10-20 12:21:12 EDT 
The change is released to branch bug33038.
I had to use authentication service to generate the 403 error. In displays error information and login form.
To get 403 in html (plain) call
1. login
2. go to 
<host>/users/B (or whatever is not your user URI)
<host>/workspace/C (or whatever is not your workspace)
etc.

This is all about plain HTML calls, not the ones made from out client in dojo.

I'm not sure if this is a good solution. Moving to 0.4 hoping to get others opinion.

The 403 error says:
You are not authorized to access /workspace/{user}-OrionContent

I agree this is sufficient.
