error-page problem with tomcat 5.5.17

[Veit Guna <ve...@gmx.de>]

Hi.

I've got a strange problem with the error-page directive and tomcat
5.5.17 + myfaces 1.1 + facelets 1.1.

I have the following in my web.xml:

...
	<!-- error handling -->
	<error-page>
		<exception-type>java.lang.Throwable</exception-type>
		<location>/pages/error.html</location>
	</error-page>
	<error-page>
		<error-code>500</error-code>
		<location>/pages/error.html</location>
	</error-page>	
	<error-page>
		<error-code>404</error-code>
		<location>/pages/error_404.html</location>
	</error-page>
	<error-page>
		<error-code>403</error-code>
		<location>/pages/error_403.html</location>
	</error-page>	
...

If a 403 or 404 error occurs, tomcat perfectly redirects to my custom
pages. But when an error 500 occurs (e.g. a provoked
NullpointerException) it displays the std. tomcat error page. There's
nothing in the logs about a faulty error.html nor any error on startup.
I also replace error.html with error_404.html just to make sure, it
isn't problem with the error.html content. Any hints, what this can be?
It turned on debugging in tomcat - but there's nothing logged about the
web.xml/error-page parsing. Any ideas how to come closer to the problem?

regards,
Veit
