Martin, Thanks for the reply.
If I throw a ServletException in my Action, my app catches it. The question here is if there is a way to catch this FileUploadException wraped as a ServletExcption, maybe tweaking the web container somehow?

You can't, at least not without extending RequestProcessor or modifying (or wrapping) CommonsMultipartRequestHandler. The FileUploadException is thrown when the request is being parsed, which is at the time the form bean is being populated. That happens before your action is invoked. The exception is caught by Struts, and converted to a ServletException. Unfortunately, this doesn't propagate to the global exception handler (although perhaps it should), so it bubbles right out the top. -- Martin Cooper > > Thanks > Jing > > > DISCLAIMER: This message contains information which may be > confidential and/or privileged, and is intended only for the use of the addressee(s). > Any use, disclosure or copying of this message or any part thereof by > any person other than such addressee(s) is unauthorized and strictly prohibited. > If you have received this message in error, please notify the sender > by return e-mail and delete the message.
