I am trying to get the exception in action class also. I have previous defined an error page that displays the error and have user type in more information and click a button to email to support. That works fine. But we also need to log exceptions. So I tried to change the handler from a jsp page to an action. I have not got the error action to work. It seems like the exception wrapper is no longer in the stack once the action is invoked.

If your just going for exception information you can direct to a JSP page and use the Struts tags and look directly at the attributes defined o the Exception implementation. <struts:property value="exception.message"/> <struts:property value="exception.cause.class"/> etc..

Hello: I declared an application error page in my web.xml: <error-page> <exception-type>java.lang.Throwable</exception-type> <location>/error.action</location> </error-page> I have this declaration in my struts.xml: <action name="error" class="page.Error"> <result name="success" type="tiles">error</result> </action> In my page.Error class, I am trying to get the exception that was thrown: public class Error extends ActionSupport { public String execute() { PageContext pageContext = ServletActionContext.getPageContext(); if( pageContext != null ) { Exception exception = pageContext.getException(); if( exception != null ) { Logger.getLogger(getClass()).error(exception); } } else { Logger.getLogger(getClass()).debug("Page context is null"); } return SUCCESS; } } But, when the action executes, the pageContext is always null. What can I do to get the exception that was thrown? Thanks, Neil -- Neil Aggarwal, (832)245-7314, www.JAMMConsulting.com Eliminate junk email and reclaim your inbox.
