From the above result, we can find the method: HttpServletResponse:sendError(). So we can use stack command to resolved the HTTP 401 issue.

Run:

stack javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse sendError 'params[0]==401'{{execute T2}}

Visit: https://HOST_SUBDOMAIN-80-KATACODA_HOST.environments.katacoda.com/admin

The Result:

$ stack javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse sendError 'params[0]==401'
