Define global error page on global-web.xml

Dear fellows:
We want to create a common 404 web error page for all our J2EE applications. We have added these error pages to the global-web.xml through the Visual Administrator:
on several system local folders such as:
usrsap<SID><j2ee-instance>j2eecluster
usrsap<SID><j2ee-instance>j2eecluster<server-inst>
usrsap<SID><j2ee-instance>j2eecluster<server-inst>apps
usrsap<SID><j2ee-instance>j2eecluster<server-inst>sap.com
However, everytime we provoke the server error in order to retreive this Global Error Web Page, the system does not seem to find our custom error page, giving the following message:
The request cant be processed.
Details: Requested resource ( /testerrorpage.html ) not found.
We have discovered that the application was not trying to look up for our web Error page, but for another one located inside the application. However, we don't want to add a specific application web page but a global one common for all of them.
Since there is not any common folder, such as global/root folder, we dont know where the custom error page should be placed. Do we need to do something else?
We are currently using WAS: 6.40 SP 11 PatchLevel 89291.313.
Does anyone know how to configure this global error page? It is possible to do it?
Thank you
Gonzalo

Hello,
Yes, Uvaylo is right, the only way to edit the content of the global-web.xml is through the visual administrator --> Configuration Adapter.
I have the same problem as Gonzalo, I have modified the global-web.xml and added custom errors pages for each HTTP error and exceptions. The big deal is when I try to specify in the <b>location</b> field of <b>error-page</b> item: I dont know where I should place my custom error page. I have tried the same paths as Gonzalo did with the same result, when the error event is raised the error page is not found. In the log appears the following entry:
Processing an http request by the error page [/testerrorpage.html] finished with errors.
Probably the exception [com.sap.engine.services.servlets_jsp.server.exceptions.ServletNotFoundException:
Requested resource ( /custom_error.html ) not found.]
thrown by the requested servlet [/testerrorpage.html] cannot be processed.
The error is: com.sap.engine.services.servlets_jsp.server.exc
Please help! Where can I place my custom error pages, to make them available for all the applications of the server?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Getting referrer in error page setup in web.xml

          Hello,
          Is it possible to get the referrer in a JSP when that JSP is
          set up as the error-page element in web.xml when a 404 (or
          any other http error) occurs?
          For example when I type www.me.com/page1.jsp and page1.jsp does
          not exist WLS sends me to my error page. However I want to know
          what page (in this case page1.jsp) it was trying to access.
          Wouldn't this typically be the referrer? When I itirate through
          the headers in my error page the referrer is not one of them.
          regards,
          [email protected]


          This works beautifully. Thank you!

ADF/Webcenter Portal Error Page configuration in web.xml

Hi All,
I am using jdeveloper version 11.1.1.6.0.
I set two error pages in my application by following web.xml entries.
<error-page>
    <error-code>404</error-code>
    <location>/oracle/webcenter/portalapp/pages/AfError.html</location>
</error-page>
<error-page>
    <error-code>503</error-code>
    <location>/oracle/webcenter/portalapp/pages/SiteMaintenance.html</location>
</error-page>but it does not divert to the AfError.html page but shows 404 error.
How to solve this.
Is it possible to set .jspx page in location attribute also.
Any help is appreciated.
Require as early as possible

Hi,
this should be asked on the WebCenter forum. However, how likely is it that your error page also causes a 404 error? The message in you web.xml file are for site not found and site not available. So unless you redirect to something that is accessible you wont be able to tell whether it works or not

Error trying to update web.xml

I'm trying to update web.xml via these instructions:

The upload fails, and I see this excetpion in the log:
Caused by: java.rmi.RemoteException: Error occurred during single file update of
       application sap.com/irj. Reason: Updating the security information in the

       allowed in this operation.
Ideas? I'm signing in as Administrator, so why would the operation not be allowed?
This is a 7.0 system, and the instructions are for a nw2004 system. We've successfully uploaded the web.xml file before, so I'm thinking that something has changed in 7.0 that's preventing the upload.

This page of the documentation indicates that the technique is the correct case:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/6e/8590f1d6d349c9adc34c6a8085189b/frameset.htm

Setting web pages resource in web.xml

Hi all
I want to set the location of my jsps in a different folder of my web app root.
I mean i have a subfolder of web app root and i want to set this subfolder as web pages location.
Any idea ? setting anything with the web.xml?

you need not set a different path.. u can just type in folder name in the browser
http://localhost ..../folder/index.jsp
(immediately after the port number)

Define a context parameter not using web.xml

Dears,
With a web.xml file, it is possible to define a context parameter available in the web app via de ServetContext.getInitParameters method.
Is it possible to define a context parameter not using the web.xml file ? Can I, in a java Class, init a custom context parameter ? (for exampel, init as a context param a key/value pair read from a property file).
PS: the need is that the value (hmac key) currently define in the web.xml needs to be updated monthly. Apparently, under WebSphere (the app server we are using) changing the web.xml of the deployed app it not enought for it to be taken into account.
Sincerely,
Beno�t Bertrand

Is it possible to define a context parameter not
using the web.xml file ? Can I, in a java Class, init
a custom context parameter ? (for exampel, init as a
context param a key/value pair read from a property
file).Does it necessarily have to be a value retrieved through the context param ? AFAIK, there's no way you could programatically 'set' an init param, which going by the name, 'init param' is quite understandable.
You could define this value in a property file and read it in, in the init method. You should provide a mechanism to reload the new value after 'x' days. One approach is a Timer that does the job, do have a look at SteveJLuke's recommendations on the same in this thread

i have googled why fire fox keeps giving the error can not establish a connection and nothing i have found works i have unistalled it and added it back i have checked the proxy i have check the fire wall and nothing works but internet explorer works fine please help or i will have to delete it for good

Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

Error-page tag not valid in global-web-application.xml ?

Hi!
From what I understand about the global-web-application.xml file in Oracle's documentation, the content of the web-app tag should be inherited to all web application as a web.xml content.
One of the web.xml tags is error-page, which contains the page url for the standard return codes (404, 500, and so on).
If I put the error-page on the web.xml inside a web application, it works as expected.
But if I don't put this tag inside the web applicaction, but in the global-web-applicacion.xml (web-app) tag, it doesn't work.
We are testing the 404 error page, but I don't know if it is because the application server can't find the error page or because the global-web-application.xml isn't being inherited correctly.
Where is this file supposed to be looked for? Or the only way to do this is by writing the configuration on all web applications?
We are using 9.0.3

As per the configuration, when exception is thrown out of the application, container tries to display systemError.jsp page. If we want to include the JSF tags in systemError.jsp page, the request should pass through FacesServlet, so in the <error-page> <location> tag systemError page is specified with the extention systemError.jsf though it's actual extention is .jsp
When exception is thrown from the application container invoke the error page but, while rendering systemError.jsf page exception is thrown saying "Exception processing error page "systemError.jsp" "
To solve this problem i've gone through several forums, materials.
In one forum a guy said, JSF1.1 spec has some problem in displaying error pages. To solve this don't write <f:view> tags in the error page, use <f:subview> intstead. By reading this, i again changed the contents of systemError.jsp page replacing <f:view> by <f:subview>. But the error is still repeating.
Finally what i found is, when we use Ajax4jsf in the application, its AjaxViewRender class is throwing exception while rendering error pages configured through web.xml.
So what i did is i changed error page extention from .jsf to .jsp in the <location> tag. Now jsf won't come in the picture and remove JSF related tags from the systemError.jsp page.
<error-page>
<exception-type>java.lang.Throwable</exception-type>
<location>/rc/systemError.jsp</location>
</error-page>

How to call common error pages for all the exceptions

Hi All
I have created the common ErrorPage in my application. In case of any error whether SQL,IO or JBO I want that error page be displayed. In the page definition I have given the errorpage name and also defined the error page as IS_ERROR_PAGE = true.But it is throwing Jbo exception at the top of the page itself.No redirection to the error page is done.
Though I have gone through various threads in this forum but still its not clear how to get the things working.
Can anyone please help me out in this regard?

Hi,
I assume you mean that you set the error page in the web.xml file. Note that exceptions are handled first by the JSF framework. Please have a look at the developer guide

How to configure custom error page in WebServer 6.1 if instance is down

Hi ,
I have deployed an application on port 82.
If the instance is down, want to configure custom error page in Sun One Webserver 6.1 so that the it displays a customised message rather than browser displaying its custom DNS error page.
In web.xml, configured the 404/500 error messages, but if the instance is down, my web application does not receive the request. So it should be defined at the root level.Where to configure the same?
Thanks for the help in advance.

You can use Error function "send-error" http://docs.sun.com/source/817-1834-10/crobjsaf.html#wp20007
It has an example
Error fn=send-error code=401 path=/sun/server61/docs/errors/401.html

HTTP Error 403 - Customized Error Page Display Issue

Hi,
I have included 403 in <error-code> in my web.xml and defined proper security constraints. But when I try to access my JSPs directly on Mozilla I see my error page but I try in Internet, I can't see the same page.
Can someone help me?

BalusC wrote:
Then don't send the HTTP error status code in the headers. It would trigger IE to display friendly error pages.
Best solution would be to let the error page invoke a redirect to self (or another error page) when the HTTP status code is 403, so that it becomes 200 (or anything in range of 200-399) so that IE won't be triggered to display friendly error pages. Best solution would be to let the error page invoke a redirect to self (or another error page) when the HTTP status code is 403You want to say that I should define a error page in my JSP where, when its called, I need to handle the 403 error. Please correct me if I'm wrong. I have defined *403 error code in my web.xml*.
Again if possible can you please put down a sample how to do it?

How to show an error Page in Weblogic when the server is down

Hi ,
I heard that every container has the facility to show an error page when the server is down and (when the request has arrived at that time ).
Please tell me how to configure this in BEA weblogic ??
Thanks .

Hi,
From my understanding weblogic dose not provide the thing which you are asking for, reason is given below.
- An application is deployed only on managed server one (MS-1)
- Now if the request comes to the server (MS-1) when it was running and then for some reason MS-1 goes down then weblogic server would be able to send any response back to the client as its down.
- Hence nothing can be done as the request object is been lost when the server goes down or even cant redirect to an error page as for doing that too the server has to be up and running.
However there are other way round which can help you overcome this issue as shown below
- Use Clusters with few managed servers in it which gives you high availability and load-balancing.
- Use any web servers like Apache in front of weblogic servers.
Using the above things you can also use customized HTTP Error Responses with error-page element in web.xml and create your own error pages which can be re-directed for the web server side also. For more information go through the below links
