Re: Exceptions in JSP-aware beans

[Prasanna]

Hi,

 

  I am also facing the same problem. If the exception is thrown at the JSP bean, the "errorpage" directive at JSP doesn't trap this exception.  If exception is thrown by JSP it self  with in <%...%> tags then exception is caught. I am using JRUN 2.3, NT4.0 and MS-IIS. Is this problem specific to JRUN?. How do other servlet engines behave?. How to solve this problem?. Any ideas!

 

Thanks and regards

Prasanna

Subject: Exceptions in JSP-aware beans

If the processRequest method of a JSP-aware bean throws an exception (say NullPointerException), shoudn't the JSP runtime detect the exception and redirect to an error page? I've tried this with both JRun 2.3 and the Sun 0.92 reference implementation, and they both swallow the exception. The JRun implementation does at least output the stack trace to the log, but shouldn't bean exceptions propagate up the normal error page handling mechanism?? Is this part of the design, or is it a bug?
