This element creates a mapping between the error-code or exception-type to the location of a resource in the web application.error-code - an integer valueexception-type - a fully qualified class name of a Java Exception typelocation - location of the resource in the webapp relative to the root of the web application.

You would have to use the error-page element in web.xml to specify the invocation of servlets in response to certain exceptions or HTTP status codes. web.xml Configuration: Consider, you have an ErrorHandler servlet which would be called whenever there is any defined exception or error.

And although there’s a lot to be said on the topic I’m going to cover only a few of the most critical cases in J2EE Web applications. Essentially, one of the biggest worries about exception handling is that you don’t actually handle the exception. Instead, your code − or the code of some 3rd party library you’re using − allows an exception to bubble up. Once the exception reaches the boundary of your application and enters the container, the specific container/application server you are using determines what semantics are applied in handling the exception. Often times, by default, a standard error page is applied and the exception stack trace is printed on the screen in all its glory. This is definitely a problem, because it gives attackers a lot of information about the system, and can l
