[FIXED] styled error action is not returned for ForbiddenHttpException in yii2

Issue

I am new to yii and I have the following code in some of the controllers that are only used for admin role.

public function behaviors()
{
    return [
        'access' => [
            'class' => AccessControl::className(),
            //'only' => ['index', 'view', 'create', 'update','delete'],
            'rules' => [
                [
                    'allow' => true,
                    'roles' => ['admin'],
                ],
            ],
        ],
    ];
}

All attempts to this controller from non-admin roles are blocked as required but the styled yii's error action is not returned. I have the following component in my main.php file:

'errorHandler' => [
      'errorAction' => 'main/error',
],

But it is not working, all I get is:

An Error occurred while handling another error:

#10 C:\xampp\htdocs\food\admin\web\index.php(20): yii\base\Application->run()

Any guidance is appreciet.

Solution

I figured it out that to show the error page, I need to grant the permission of the error action to the non-admin users.

[
    'actions' => 
           ['logout', 'reset-password', 'request-password-reset', 'error'],
           'allow' => true,
           'roles' => ['branch'],
],
