Dear Daniel
I regret to say it didnt work.
I am still getting the ugly error 500 message on the browser.
Here is my web.xml
<web-app>
<welcome-file-list>
<welcome-file>login.jsp</welcome-file>
</welcome-file-list>
<error-page>
<error-code>500</error-code>
<location>/500.html</location>
</error-page>
</web-app>
can you spot any mistakes?
Please help
regards
Deepak
