Error Message on Redirect
Hi all,
I have configured an error page in web.xml when an error occurs -
e.g. the file size limit exceeded.
This is a plain html page as I have not found a way to use a jsp.
Is it possible to give a detail error message? I want an error
page similar to the ExceptionHandler page, but without stack
traces .. I want to access the source of the error and give the user
a hint.
Thanks for any help,
Heike

To use a jsp file as an error page, you can include the following directive in a jsp file:
<%@ page errorPage="MyErrorPage.jsp" %>
Whenever an exception occurs in the jsp file, the control will then be transferred to MyErrorPage.jsp.
MyErrorPage.jsp should have the following directive at the top:
<%@ page isErrorPage="true" %>
If a jsp's iserrorpage is true, then it gets access to an implicit variable called 'exception'. You can therefore do something like the following in MyErrorPage.jsp:
<%= exception.toString() %>
