Custom 404 message?

Does anyone know how to change the default 404 page (to a custom one) for my
Geronimo (globally) ?

Ok..

problem solved.

I had to re-deploy the dam war file, I was simply modifying the web.xml and
restarting the context....which was apparently not enough.

This is apparently not possible?

Here's a similar problem:
http://www.nabble.com/-Jetty-support--Jetty-error-handling-t2692820.html#a7509187

But, the above problem is for Jetty only. I cannot find any "jetty.xml" for
Geronimo to implement that solution.

Shouldn't this be configurable anyway?

Not sure which flavor and version of Geronimo you are using, but  
using the Geronimo+Tomcat 2.0.1 server I was able to accomplish this  
by following these steps:
-  add that chunk of text from your message to var/catalina/ROOT/WEB- 
INF/web.xml
-  create my404error.jsp in var/catalina/ROOT
-  undeploy Geronimo's welcome app  (use the admin console, or bin/ 
deploy.sh undeploy org.apache.geronimo.configs/welcome-tomcat//car)
-  restart the server

This is rather complicated because the welcome app is assigned to the  
'/' context until you undeploy it, and then tomcat component needs to  
be restarted before it assigns the ROOT app back to handling the '/'  
context.

Best wishes,
Paul

I tried adding this into web.xml for the ROOT context:
  <error-page>
    <error-code>404</error-code>
    <location>/my404error.jsp</location>
  </error-page>

but http://myserver/blablablbladoesnotexist  still displays the built-in
404.
