jsp error report
Is there any way I can check for the error below before the error is displayed and redirect to a different page if it will be displayed.
HTTP Status 404 - //main//file.doc
type Status report
message //main//file.doc
description The requested resource (//main//file.doc) is not available.
Apache Tomcat/4.1.29

why don't you use a try catch then
<%
try{
code that might throw the error
}
catch(Exception e){
%>
<jsp:forward page="myErrorPage.jsp" />
<%
}
in myErrorPage.jsp
you can have some lines of code to explain what happened.

I believe this is what you are looking for:
http://saloon.javaranch.com/cgi-bin/ubb/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic&f=56&t=000330
Basically, you have add something like this in your web.xml:
<error-page>
<error-code>404</error-cod
<location>/notFound.jsp</l
</error-page>

Mark: that would work for me, can I put that code anywhere in my web.xml?
ASKER
copyPasteGhost: I would have to embed your code in an xsl stylesheet and i dont think jsp can be embedded in xsl.
??? xsl?
why did you post your question in the jsp section?
wouldn't the xml section have been better?
your error said you were using tomcat's server? if your not using jsp how is that possible?

The actual page the error is thrown on doesnt exist on my machine. Ideally I could do a check against the page and to see if it exists.
ASKER
Ive amended my web.xml as shown but its not linking to my page of choice.
This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.
-
<html>
<body/>
</html>
Do I have to specify the location somewhere else?

I got it :)
what was it?
Yes:
<location>/notFound.jsp</l
I believe you should place the 'notFound.jsp' in this directory:
../yourwebapp/
not ../yourwebapp/WEB-INF/
