RE: error page for error code 500?
Thank you for the reply. I should be clearer. We are developing a struts app and I am using tiles and declarative error handling features. My goal is to have the user only my error pages (not server errors ect.) I know that certain errors fall outside of the struts controller. Over the course of development, I have triggered the odd 404,400, and 500 tomcat error page. In web.xml i was able to map 404 and 400 but not 500. I can simulate each error: 404 - calling a non existent page 400 - calling a non existent action mapping 500 - calling without a web app context: ie /action.do instead of /myApp/action.do(I'm sure there are other ways..) The reason I posted to this list is that I am under the understanding that I could map any error code to a page. Am I wrong? !-- This works...-- error-page error-code404/error-code location/error/ServerError404Page.jsp/location /error-page error-page error-code400/error-code location/error/Server400ErrorPage.jsp/location /error-page !-- this does not work - why? -- error-page error-code500/error-code location/error/Server500ErrorPage.jsp/location /error-page Thanks for the help..

Re: error page for error code 500?
If you are trying to generate a 500 by accessing a url outside a context then the error page defined within the context won't get triggered. Where are you putting your error-page tags? You could try altering the web.xml in tomcats conf directory... [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Thank you for the reply. I should be clearer.

Re: error page for error code 500?
That is a good point. You can tell that I am new to server issues. ( so far I just live in my little web app world ). It is my desire to trap JSPExceptions as well, and if possible all java.lang.Exceptions.. Do other people do this? More testing Thanks again.

Re: error page for error code 500?
I just tested it out and I get the same problem. I am currently capturing and using a custom error page for 500 errors when Tomcat is not responding. Ie. - I am using Apache's ErrorDocument 500 http://whatever in the httpd.conf. This works fine. I was also able to capture Tomcat's 404 error-page using the error-page tags. But the 500 error page capture in the web.xml didn't work. error-page error-code404/error-code location/errors/generic.html/location /error-page error-page error-code500/error-code location/errors/generic.html/location /error-page Sorry, no answer, just recreation of the problem.
