JSP Error page not getting displayed

[j.gohel]

Hi i have designed one exception class.
What the process follows is:

I am clicking a button from my welcome.jsp page to get connection to the database which hits my makeConnection servlet.The makeConnection servlet calls getConnection() method of some another class .In that other class i m forcefully making runtime error so that i can display my jsp error page.But i am getting the conventional jsp error page provide by Tomcat .

So how to make my error page display if the exception is generated when my servlet takes use of some model class which(the model class) generates the exception???

Thanks,
Jignesh

It's been a while since I worked with custom JSP error pages, and I don't really remember how to do it. I'm pretty sure it can be defined in the Tomcat configuration files, that if you encounter X exception, go to this page. Alternately, you can catch the exception yourself and redirect the user to a custom error page (response.sendRedirect() or something along those lines).
