Alex,
In the current version of the spec - filters only get applied to requests as they enter the container - not after request dispatching and undefined for error pages. In JSR154 (the 2.4 version of the spec), I was able to push through some clarifications on the welcome page mechanism and also extend the new Filter definitions to error pages. In 2.4 you will be able to specify if a filter applies to an normal request, a forward, an include or an error page. But that does not help you now! As it is in 2.3 your filter will be applied to the original request, but not for the implicit forwarding to the error page. My only suggestion is to write an error servlet that collects all the details and then does a META redirect to a URL that encodes the details. The redirected request will pass through your filter and will be able to display the results of your filter. Not very nice I'm afraid! regards -- Greg Wilkins<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Phone/fax: +44 7092063462 Mort Bay Consulting Australia and UK. http://www.mortbay.com ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ JBoss-user mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/jboss-user
