Note that this is the same OP that works for an "expert" IT consulting company 
and wanted volunteers on this mailing list to do his work for him.

error 500?


Nitpicking : tomcat server does not really "throw internal server error 500".
The "internall error 500" is a HTTP response that Tomcat sends back to a client in certain 
circumstances.
These circumstances may be the result of some malfunction of some component (like a java 
exception etc), but Tomcat catches these cases, and is still working well enough to 
compose and send that response to the client. If it really crashed, it would not even send 
that response.





99.9% : web application errors, misconfiguration resulting in a crash of a 
component

0.1% : maybe bugs, maybe things that a client is really not supposed to send to 
a webserver..

Errors linked to what a client sends to the webserver (bad request syntax etc.) are 
supposed to result in 4xx responses.
