Originally we were planning to get round this problem by just changing error_document_template in the error controller to be XML rarther than HTML. This is no good in our case because we have custom XML schema validation middleware that rejects the response object created by abort () before it gets to the statusCodeRedirect middleware. Perhaps this approach could help you. I am making the assumption that you have mistaken where the HTML is coming from, if this is incorrect I am sorry.
