------------------------------------------
Summary: HTTP status 200 for custom error handler scripts
Key: SLING-4143
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-4143
Project: Sling
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Engine
Reporter: Bertrand Delacretaz
Assignee: Bertrand Delacretaz
It looks like Sling does not set the response status if a custom error handler
script is present which does not set the status itself. See examples below.
I think Sling should detect this and set a sensible non-200 status in this case.
Example 1: script doesn't set status
{code}
$ cat > 404.jsp
<html>Custom 404 page</html>
$ curl -u admin:admin -T 404.jsp
http://localhost:8888/apps/sling/servlet/errorhandler/404.jsp
$ curl -D - http://localhost:8888/nonexisting
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
...
<html>Custom 404 page</html>
{code}
Example 2, scripts throws a RuntimeException - blank response with 200 status
{code}
$ cat > 404.jsp
<% if(true) throw new RuntimeException("404 page failed"); %>
$ curl -u admin:admin -T 404.jsp
http://localhost:8888/apps/sling/servlet/errorhandler/404.jsp
$ curl -D - http://localhost:8888/nonexisting
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
...

Example 3: scripts sets status - this one looks correct.
{code}
$ cat > 404.jsp
<% response.setStatus(421); %>
Custom 421 page
$ curl -u admin:admin -T 404.jsp
http://localhost:8888/apps/sling/servlet/errorhandler/404.jsp
$ curl -D - http://localhost:8888/nonexisting
HTTP/1.1 421 421
...
Server: Jetty(7.x.y-SNAPSHOT)
Custom 421 page
{code}
