Yes, it's possible. I'm still doing it the old Tapestry3 way... overriding Engine.activateExceptionPage(). The guts of the code:
protected void activateExceptionPage(IRequestCycle cycle, Throwable cause) { ExceptionDescription[] edArray = new ExceptionAnalyzer().analyze(cause); ExceptionDescription ed = edArray[0]; String message = ed.getMessage(); if (message != null && message.indexOf("does not contain a component") != -1) { // write something to the log here cycle.activate("UnexpectedError"); // page of your choice renderResponse(cycle); // Don't fall through to the usual error handler return; } // ... the usual error handler... } In Tapestry4, though, I should probably be getting away from a custom Engine. Custom error handlers can be configured as ExceptionPresenter contributions.
