Hi Professor,

In AuthenticationSuccessHandler the saverequest is always not null and so it is not returning to the desired page which is in defaulturl.

any suggestions please.

Yes it should be null if log in is attempted.

I have attached a screenshot where it wasn't getting null before. It works after restarting the eclipse.

Thank you professor.

as per my understanding the saverequest has the url which we attempt 1st.

for example.

if I'm trying to access the url which is secured under /admin/**

the spring security first redirects to the login page where it checks the user details and roles then it directs to the url which is specified. so the saverequest has the path which I attempted 1st.

If I'm wrong please elaborate. 

That's exactly right. And it also means that the correct behavior after a successful authentication is that a) redirect to the saved request if it's not null; or b) redirect to default url if it is null.
