My setting: Apache 2.2 + Tomcat 6.0 @ Windows 2008 R2 64bit

static webpages: /
servlet: /foo
tomcat and apache are connected by mod_jk
404.jsp is placed in tomcat\webapps\ROOT

tomcat\conf\web.xml:

<error-page>
 <error-code>404</error-code>
 <location>/404.jsp</location>
</error-page>

apache\conf\extra\httpd-ssl.conf:

JkMount /foo/* worker1
JkMount /404.jsp worker1

When I open https://...../404.jsp my custom error page is displayed. But when I open https://...../foo/nonexisting.html an empty page is displayed.

If I remove the <error-page>...</error-page> code from web.xml and open https://...../foo/nonexisting.html then tomcats own 404 is displayed.

Any hints?

For my website I configured some custom error pages. If I generate a 404, the redirect works fine. When hitting a 400, the "bad request" text shows up instead of the configured URl. As a test I copied the URL from 404 to 400. No change. Then I changed the redirect to a file. No change. Any ideas? >>> More
