Hi David, Following up on this. I tried the custom error handler, and it appears that the errors are not actually caught but just forwarded to the error-handler XQuery. The impact of this for me (and which is what I'm trying to address) is that the errors are still written to the error log, regardless of whether they are handled by a custom error handler. Does this accord with your understanding of how it's supposed to work?
Do you have any other ideas for how to prevent the writing to the error log? If not, we will probably need to restructure the queries to not throw an XQuery error at all and just send the appropriate response code and error message. Darn, oh well.
