It sounds like error404.html isn't a plain HTML file, but a page

Yes.
If so, the servlet
should not set the status to 200 for an error page - it should leave
the error status alone.
I can see that.
Maybe you need a different version of the
servlet to handle error pages,
That's waht I have been slowly getting to: Make an error handling
servlet.
or maybe your error pages should just
be static HTML files.
Well, they certainly could be. But how do I serve them without a
servlet to do it?
That was ultimately my question:
How do I set the value of the location element in the error page
declaration:
<error-page>
<error-code>404</error-code>
<location>/docs/error404.html</location>
</error-page>
So that tomcat will grab a static HTML page from disk?
Let's say that the error document is here:
$CATALINA_HOME/webapps/myContext/docs/error404.html
Because it doesn't do it if I disable the servlet (and it's mappings)
that hands our the docs, it just returns an empty document.
