It depends on the servlet engine you're using, but a JSDK 2.1-compliant engine
should let you set the request attribute named by the constant
PageContext.EXCEPTION.
So in your servlet, when you detect an error, do something like:
request.setAttribute(PageContext.EXCEPTION, new Exception("File not found"));
Then forward to the error page:
getServletContext().getRequestDispatcher("/my/errorPage.jsp").forward(request,
response);
