Http Response interceptor. Handles 401 requests from the server

responseInterceptor.js

//Works for 1.1.x versions. 1.0.x is similar and can be figured out using code comments
myapp.factory('myHttpResponseInterceptor',['$q','$location',function($q,$location){
  return {
    response: function(response){
      return promise.then(
        function success(response) {
        return response;
      },
      function error(response) {
        if(response.status === 401){
          $location.path('/signin');
          return $q.reject(response);
        }
        else{
          return $q.reject(response); 
        }
      });
    }
  }
}]);
//Http Intercpetor to check auth failures for xhr requests
myapp.config(['$httpProvider',function($httpProvider) {
  $httpProvider.interceptors.push('myHttpResponseInterceptor');
}]);

On line 5 promise isn't defined. Should that be some $q value?

Line 4 should be:

    response: function(promise){

Hey there! Right now as I try to use the above snippet I always get the following JavaScript error

TypeError: Object # has no method 'then'

shown in the Chrome dev-tools console. I already included the fix mentioned above to my snippet implementation. Shouldn't it work out of the box after having adapted the "myapp" to fit to my project?

Great snippet though and thx a lot for sharing so far!
