<bean
    class="org.springframework.web.servlet.handler.SimpleMappingExceptionResolver">
    <property name="mappedHandlers">
        <set>
            <ref bean="exceptionController" />
        </set>
    </property>
    <property name="defaultErrorView" value="tiles/content/error" />
</bean>

I'm trying to send exceptions to a controller so I can create a redirect. If I comment out the mappedHandlers part then the error tile is displayed but it is only a tile. The rest of the tiles load normally. I need to make a redirect in the controller so I can show an error page not just an error tile.

I can't find enough information or an example how the exception invokes some method in exceptionController.
