Redirect not working when using html format

[khalidafla]

When you use view annotation then whatever you return in your controller will be considered as data to the view template, so when using this code:

try {
            $newPage = $this->container->get('acme_blog.page.handler')->post(
                $request->request->all()
            );
            $routeOptions = array(
                'id' => $newPage->getId(),
                '_format' => $request->get('_format')
            );
            return $this->routeRedirectView('api_1_get_page', $routeOptions, Codes::HTTP_CREATED);
 } catch (InvalidFormException $exception) {
            return $exception->getForm();
 }

the view handler will use the view returned by routeRedirectView as the templateData of the annotation view instead of displaying it.

So to prevent this from happening the @view should be removed, but then the function should always return a view like this :

try {
            $newPage = $this->container->get('acme_blog.page.handler')->post(
                $request->request->all()
            );
            $routeOptions = array(
                'id' => $newPage->getId(),
                '_format' => $request->get('_format')
            );
            return $this->routeRedirectView('api_1_get_page', $routeOptions, Codes::HTTP_CREATED);
 } catch (InvalidFormException $exception) {
            return $this->view($exception->getForm(), Codes::HTTP_BAD_REQUEST)
                        ->setTemplate('AcmeBlogBundle:Page:newPage.html.twig');
 }

and it should be working as expected.
