Well, there are two types of errors - failures and faults (it's described in user manual). Failures are used when delivery error occurs and are hadled by activityRecovery (for example manually). As for faults in SMX, there is ServiceMixMapper class, which converts NMR message into ODE message. It uses WSDL declarations from BPEL imports to convert NMR fault into WSDL declared fault message (ODE requires wsdl declared messages for faults as well as for in/outs). In bpel, if you want to catch such fault, you need to use <catch faultMessageType=".."> syntax. I think you can use example from axis2-war tests http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/ode/branches/APACHE_ODE_1.X/axis2-war/src/test/resources/TestStructuredFault/ You can also use catchAll if you don't want to declare WSDL fault message.
