Tomcat 5 DB connection error page?

2003-07-16 Thread Vic Cekvencih
I have a connection pool w/TC5 (and error-page in web.xml), but 
sometimes DB is down.

How do I display an error page saying db is down (since some of this is 
at the container, not war)?

You could throw an exception (of some custom type) siginifying the db is down 
and configure web.xml to catch that exception.

Or use a filter which know the status of the database. And if the filter 
detects the database has gone away - it can forward to an error page instead 
of following the filterChain.
