Re: Custom error pages from servlets?
Les Hartzman typed the following on 04:36 PM 2/7/2001 -0800 Using Tomcat 3.2.1, is it possible to define/display custom error pages based on errors that occur within a servlet? No JSPs are used; this is a servlet/EJB environment. I've seen in the spec for web.xml that there is an error-page element for either a general error code or an exception type. But is final granularity possible based on some servlet action? I'm not sure what you mean by that last sentence. You can throw whatever exceptions you want in your servlet to force handling by a particular error page. Create custom exception subclasses and throw those in your servlet. error-page exception-typecom.myco.myproject.FooException/exception-type location/servlets/FooExceptionServlet)/location /error-page Section 9.8 of the 2.2 specification explains how to find the error conditions in your servlet. Note that there has been a bug which causes Tomcat to choke if you use a non JSP/servlet resource to handle error-pages, i.e. using a flat HTML page kills it. I'm not sure if this is still a bug.
