Error page ignored

[Paul Croarkin]

web.xml has:

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

but, we are still getting:

Error 500--Internal Server Error

java.lang.StackOverflowError
at java.lang.String.(String.java:422)
at java.lang.StringBuffer.toString(StringBuffer.java:1235)
at java.lang.Throwable.toString(Throwable.java:344)
at java.lang.String.valueOf(String.java:2177)
..

showing via the weblogic error page rather than our custom error page.

We've stripped the error.jsp down to:

<%@ page isErrorPage="true" %>

<h1>Custom Error Page</h1>

[Anders Mathisen]

if this is within a pageflow, try the pageflow error handling routines.

I would guess the pageflow framework snaps the error before it is provided to the servlet engine.
