rescue_from doesn't seem to catch errors

[Josiah]

I have an admin dashboard I am trying to secure with acl9.

It is only open to users with the :admin role, which works fine. What
I can't seem to figure out is why this line won't work for me:

rescue_from Acl9::AccessDenied, :with => :access_denied

I keep getting Acl9::AccessDenied exceptions in my cucumber tests (and
when I visit the page manually).

Any idea why? It doesn't seem to call
ApplicationController#access_denied at all.

I was more or less following the tutorial. The only change I made was
to remove the quotes around Acl9::AccessDenied when the copied and
pasted version didn't work either.

Thanks for your help,
Josiah

Does it work in production mode?

Try setting the following in your Webrat env.rb:

ActionController::Base.allow_rescue = true
