I have to restrict access to particular action in a controller and so i have created a RestrictAccess attribute which implements ActionFilterAttribute .

RestrictAccess

public class RestrictAccess : ActionFilterAttribute
    {

        public override void OnActionExecuting(ActionExecutingContext filterContext)
        {

           filterContext.Result = new RedirectToRouteResult(
                    new RouteValueDictionary {{ "Controller", "Test" },                                   
                                              { "Action", "RedirectToError" } });
            base.OnActionExecuting(filterContext);
        }
    }

While debugging , after executing above code it is supposed to redirect and go hit the TestController's RedirectToError action. But it fails to redirect .

Test Controller:

public ActionResult RedirectToError()
{
    return View("AccessRestriction.cshtml");
}

Instead i get this below error in browser.
Endpoint not found. Please see the service help page for constructing valid requests to the service.

Can someone help me in this?

What I have tried:

I have tried overriding unauthorizedRequest as well. Still same issue.

public class RestrictAccess : AuthorizeAttribute
{
   public override void HandleUnauthorizedRequest(AuthorizationContext filterContext)
   {
       UrlHelper urlHelper = new UrlHelper(filterContext.RequestContext);
       filterContext.Result = new RedirectResult(urlHelper.Action("Test", "RedirectToError"));
   }
}
