ActionError inaction

[Jerald Powel <ge...@yahoo.co.uk>]

Hi, I have: 

        } catch (InitializationException e) {
            ActionMessage errorMessage = new ActionMessage("init_error", "Initialization Exception");
            ActionErrors errors = new ActionErrors();
            errors.add("init_error", new ActionError("init_error", errorMessage));
            saveErrors(request, errors);
            return mapping.findForward(FORWARD_error); 

I am performing an illegal substring just before the catch to throw an exception and test my error page. But all I am getting is 'HTTP 500 - Internal server error'. FORWARD_error is defined and mapped to a valid JSP. But I am not getting that far. Also, in my conf/web.xml I have 



<error-page>
     <error-code>500</error-code>
     <location>/error500.jsp</location>
</error-page>

with error500.jsp in both ROOT and the context directory, which is not picking up the 500 server error! A dose of lethargy on my 'Actions' it seems?

Any ideas please?
