Re: A Global Error Page (JSP or JSF)

[sa...@twinix.com]

I have configured a servlet to display an error message and a stack trace for 500 errors 9defined in web.xml). It works sometimes and not at others? By this i mean some 500 errors are caught and reported the others just cause an error and failure.


In Response To: 

Does anybody have an example of global JSP (or JSF) error page that can be used to catch 500 errors genertaed by either servlets or jsps?

Thanks.

Re: A Global Error Page (JSP or JSF)

[Gregor Schneider <rc...@googlemail.com>]

try to put something like this into your web.xml (i hope that is what
you've been asking for):

<error-page>
    	<exception-type>java.lang.Throwable</exception-type>
    	<location>/errorPages/generalError.html</location>
</error-page>

That page should just display some message like "general error
occured, please report to webmaster... ". The error itself you then
should find in your logs.

Cheers

Gregor
