Not going to error page( struts)

Question

Hi,
I have some problem related to struts application in portal. I have converted my struts jsps as portlets and deployed to the server. application is working properly. but the problem it is not going to the struts error page when any un handled exception is thrown. My intention is to redirect to the error page when ever the application is not able to handle. It is giving 500 internal server error instead of going to error page. any help?
thanks,
reddi

Hi sandeep,
Thanks for your reply. I am configuring that in my web.xml
<servlet>
          <servlet-name>error</servlet-name>
          <servlet-class>myapp.ErrorServlet</servlet-class>
     </servlet>
     <servlet-mapping>
          <servlet-name>error</servlet-name>
          <url-pattern>errorServlet</url-pattern>
     </servlet-mapping>
     <error-page>
          <exception-type>javax.servlet.jsp.JspException</exception-type>
          <location>/errorServlet</location>
     </error-page>
     <error-page>
          <error-code>500</error-code>
          <location>/errorServlet</location>
     </error-page>
     <error-page>
          <error-code>404</error-code>
          <location>/errorServlet</location>
     </error-page>
     <error-page>
          <error-code>405</error-code>
          <location>/errorServlet</location>
     </error-page>
and my ErrorServlet is as follows.
     public void doPost(HttpServletRequest req, HttpServletResponse res)
               throws IOException, ServletException
          Integer statusCode = (Integer) req
                    .getAttribute("javax.servlet.error.status_code");
          if (statusCode != null)
               int sc = ((Integer) statusCode).intValue();
               switch (sc)
                    case 500:
                         req.setAttribute("error.message",
                                   "Please contact the server administrator");
                         break;
                    case 404:
                         req.setAttribute("error.message", "Requested url not found");
                         break;
          RequestDispatcher rd = req.getRequestDispatcher("/ErrorPage.jsp");
          rd.forward(req,res);
Is this ok?
I have system error page entries in the struts-config.xml. But I am configuring the redirection to the ErrorPage(This is the last page if everything fails) in web.xml only
Thanks,
