Showing error pages for tomcat means 1) set the current http status header to an error one (5xx,4xx,etc depending on error type) 2) send in body of response a html showing error This can *only* be done if no content has already been send to client (because of http specification).
Th be sure your exeception get to the user page, you must ensure nothing is send to client before response is fully generated. The only way i know to do this is to cache locally the response until servlet return from processing. And only hat this moment send this cached response to the client socket. To do this, you have to implement a servlet filter that provide a wrapper Response to the filter chain and have this wrapped response implement the response stream as a ByteArrayOutputStream of something alike. When the chain returns without exception, you then have to copy that memory stream to original Response Stream. The draw back is that, if you have lots of simultaneous request that send response of a few hundred K in size, this takes lots of memory. an other solution is to use the <%@ page buffer=sizekb %> which will cache a small amount of response before sending anything to socket, a good value for buffer size can reduce the odds of having no error response in cas of errors. (This will anyway fail if any tag call flush() on response stream) kempo bob a écrit : > I have a JSP that uses several tags implemented as tag files (not classic > custom tag handlers).
