the previous posting seems to not like the \<param\>
You are right... I am just trying to catch those rare events. Now here's something crazy: (and I have checked, and double checked, restarted server, etc). BUT if I add a <param> to my action, the exception mapping WORKS. If I take it away, the exception is not caught. <action name="*" class="com.opensymphony.xwork2.ActionSupport"> <param name="foo">bar</param> <interceptor-ref name="exception" /> <interceptor-ref name="defaultStack" /> <result type="velocity">/templates/screens/{1}.vm</result> </action> That works like a charm, remove the foo/bar and I get 500 error. struts.xml file is the same as I posted.
