Here's your problem:
> <location>/WEB-INF/jsp/exceptions/ServletException.jsp</location>
JSPs can't be run from inside the WEB-INF directory. Try moving your jsp/exceptions directory up one level.

that's the superclass for unchecked exceptions and you probably want to
handle them all the same (if you want to handle them at all, which
apparently you do).
I don't understand. :( I don't know if this is related to the original question, but I have this in web.xml:
<error-page> <exception-type>javax.servlet.ServletException</exception-type> <location>/WEB-INF/jsp/exceptions/ServletException.jsp</location> </error-page>
(in the appropriate place, at the bottom just above </web-app>)
When this code executes: if ( report == null || report.equals( "" ) ) { log.debug( "doGet: no data! Need to forward to an error page." ); throw new ServletException( "No data found in HOLD file" ); }
I _still_ get this in the browser:
type Exception report
message description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented
it from fulfilling this request.
exception javax.servlet.ServletException: No data found in HOLD file
at edu.asu.vpia.webapp.PDFServlet.doGet(PDFServlet.java:94)
Yansheng Lin suggested using Struts declarative exception handling, but this is a plain-old Servlet, not a Struts Action.
The same <error-page> tag works fine in a different webapp, I'm at a loss as to why it fails in this one. The JSP is present in the location given in the tag.
What am I missing, why do I get a Tomcat-generated error page and not the JSP I specified?
