Question-The page isn't redirecting properly

I'm running into a problem where Firefox is returning this error page "The page isn't redirecting properly Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete. This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies."

Cookies though are enabled so that is not the problem. Now I'm using restful_authentication plugin. I have set this in my application.rb controller file -

include AuthenticatedSystem before_filter :login_required

The login_required method looks like it should redirect to my login page:

def login_required       username, passwd = get_auth_data       self.current_user ||= User.authenticate(username, passwd) || :false if username && passwd       logged_in? && authorized? ? true : access_denied     end

and here is access_denied def access_denied       respond_to do |accepts|         accepts.html do           store_location           redirect_to :controller => 'sessions', :action => 'new'         end

So as the code above reflects the redirect is attempting to go to sessions/new and it does reflect that in the browser url , however instead of displaying the login page I get the above error. Any ideas ?

TIA Stuart

Thank you Frederick, I put the skip skip_before_filter in the sessions controller and it's redirecting correctly. Just seemed that the access_denied method was set up for that specific reason. I gather it's because logged_required is in the application controller.
