Hi Russ,
I had the same problem and ended up including the error page in the body
of the tiles layout. This way the user could continue in the app, but be
informed that an error occurred. So, all of my body tiles have an error page
directive. If the error occurs elsewhere (header, menu, footer) I put the
code below in web.xml. If you haven't already you might try using this
method or a combination.....HTHs, Gary
<error-page>
<error-code>404</error-code>
<location>/Error404Page.jsp</location>
</error-page>
<error-page>
<error-code>500</error-code>
<location>/Error500Page.jsp</location>
</error-page>

in your action you can forward to error in the event that something's
gone pear-shaped.
