Spring security login error page, access denied - spring

Question

When I login into my oauth2 protected form with invalid credentials, the redirect to the default login error page 'login?error' does not work. In my logs I can see:
2018-02-01 10:58:35.935 DEBUG 17600 --- [http-nio-8899-exec-8] w.a.UsernamePasswordAuthenticationFilter : Updated SecurityContextHolder to contain null Authentication

But after the redirect there is an 'Access denied' exception:
2018-02-01 10:58:35.943 DEBUG 17600 --- [http-nio-8899-exec-10] o.s.s.w.a.i.FilterSecurityInterceptor : Secure object: FilterInvocation: URL: /login?error=; Attributes: [authenticated]

Does someone have an idea whats going wrong?
Edit: Add security configuration
#Configuration
#EnableWebSecurity
#EnableGlobalMethodSecurity(prePostEnabled = true, securedEnabled = true)
#Order(-20)
protected static class LoginConfig extends WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter {
...
#Override
public void configure(WebSecurity web) throws Exception {
web.ignoring().antMatchers("/static/**", "/images/**", "/fonts/**", "/health", "/info");
}
#Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
// #formatter:off
http
.authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers("/console/**", "/reset").permitAll()
.and()
.formLogin()
.loginPage("/login")
.permitAll()
.and()
.requestMatchers()
.antMatchers("/login", "/oauth/authorize", "/oauth/confirm_access", "/reset")
.and()
.authorizeRequests()
.anyRequest()
.authenticated();
// #formatter:on
}
}
Another edit: When I access the oauth2 server directly without going trough Zuul, the redirect to the login error page 'login?error' page works.
Zuul's security configuration is
#Override
public void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
// #formatter:off
http
.logout()
.permitAll()
.logoutSuccessHandler(new HttpStatusReturningLogoutSuccessHandler(HttpStatus.OK))
.and()
.authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers("/uaa/**", "/login", "/xxx/view3/**", "/*/view404", "/*/view403").permitAll()
.and()
.authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers("/xxx/**/*").hasAnyRole("USER", "ADMIN")
.antMatchers("/yyy/**/*").hasRole("ADMIN")
.and()
.authorizeRequests().anyRequest().authenticated()
.and()
.csrf().requireCsrfProtectionMatcher(csrfRequestMatcher()).csrfTokenRepository(CookieCsrfTokenRepository.withHttpOnlyFalse())
.and()
.exceptionHandling()
.accessDeniedHandler(accessDeniedHandler());
// #formatter:on
}
Edit: Added trace of requests

The solution is to add
.antMatchers("/console/**", "/reset", "/login").permitAll()
to the WebSecurityConfigurerAdapter of the uaa-service. Final working configuration
#Override
protected void configure(HttpSecurity http) throws Exception {
// #formatter:off
http
.authorizeRequests()
.antMatchers("/console/**", "/reset", "/login").permitAll()
.and()
.formLogin()
.loginPage("/login")
.permitAll()
.and()
.requestMatchers()
.antMatchers("/login", "/oauth/authorize", "/oauth/confirm_access", "/reset")
.and()
.authorizeRequests()
.anyRequest()
.authenticated();
// #formatter:on
}
If someone could explain why this is necessary, this would be nice.
