You can't override the 503 error page using an <error-page> declaration. :-( The only way I know of to change it is to replace org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve with your own version, which you specify in the "errorReportValveClass" attribute of the <Host> element in server.xml. I haven't tried this, but it's documented for Tomcat 5.5 and 6.0. -- Len
