In Tastypie v0.9.15 unauthorized exception messages are not included in the response. The cause lies in the following code: (tastypie/resources.py, Line 601-602 in v0.9.15)

    def unauthorized_result(self, exception):
        raise ImmediateHttpResponse(response=http.HttpUnauthorized())

In the above snippet an empty response is returned, without including messages in `exception`.

In order to fix this, you can override this method in your model resources, for example:

    def unauthorized_result(self, exception):
        """Override tastypie method to return a reasonable error response."""
        raise ImmediateHttpResponse(
            response=HttpUnauthorized(
                json.dumps({'error': exception.message})
            )
        )
