Global Default Error Page

2011-03-22 Thread Jonathan Rosenberg
How can I create a custom 404 error page for the case where the URL
maps to a non-existent webapp?

I know how to do this for an individual webapp, but can't figure put
where the global default error page comes from.

Just a guess, but maybe by adding it to
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml and putting the error page in
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/ROOT

*All* URLs map to a webapp, even if it's the default (ROOT) one.  Put your 
custom error page in ROOT.

That is the simple option.

You can also use a custom error reporting valve ( see
errorReportValveClass in
http://tomcat.apache.org/tomcat-7.0-doc/config/host.html). It has the
advantage of applying to all web applications deployed in a host but is
more complicated to set up.

Excellent.  Thanks.

I configured this error page in conf/web.xml.  Seemed like this made
the most sense.

Not sure about that.  Whatever you put in conf/web.xml applies to *all* 
webapps, so paths to error pages and the like must be meaningful in each 
context - which isn't likely.  Better to put it in ROOT/WEB-INF/web.xml.
