If the errorPage attribute references another JSP, make sure that page has:
<%@ page isErrorPage="true" %> Otherwise, attempting to use the implicit exception object *should* result in an error. I'm guessing that the javax.servlet.error.* request attributes will only get populated if you make use of web.xml error pages. In other words, no errorPage attribute in the page directive but an <error-page> entry in web.xml for the appropriate exception type. Quoting Ricardo Moral <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > There are two valves used to handle errors. The first > one is the ErrorDispatcherValve.
