Thank you for any help you might provide. I'm trying to figure out how/if Tomcat passes the exception object to a user defined custom error page (given that the exception is already defined in the tomcat/conf/web.xml file).
So, my web.xml contains... <error-page> <exception-type>org.apache.jasper.JasperException</exception-type> <location>/error-pages/genexception.jsp?exceptionParam=JasperException</loca tion> </error-page> And, my error page contains... <%@ page isErrorPage="true" %> <%= exception.getMessage() %> I'm already catching error codes and exceptions this way, and allowing tomcat to forward to the custom error page, but the exception object itself is not available; or, I don't know how to access the exception object from the error page. What I'm trying to do is print the stack trace to a log file. I'm already logging the fact that the exception was caught, I just need to figure out how to access the exception object from the error page. So, here's a scenario... 1) I made a page that causes a JasperException to be thrown. 2) Via TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml, tomcat sends the error page to the user. 3) The error page displays but the exception is null. If tomcat doesn't forward the exception object automatically, then how do I do this? The common solutions I saw were 1) forward from the error generating page to the error page. I don't want to do this because I have too many pages to touch. 2) define error pages in the web.xml file <error-page>, and specifically for my case use <error-type>...SomeTypeOfException</error-type>. Option 2) is the approach that I'm trying to figure out. The forwarding works, but not the exception object. Any help at all is greatly appreciated.
