FAQ and Solution:
404 error page This problem, I defined the following definition in Web.xml,
< Error-page >
< Error-code > 404 </error-code >
< location >/error_404.htm </location >
</error-page >
The path is right, it is strange that I entered a nonexistent page in the test, and the 404 error prompted that it was not the page I defined, which is odd. I remember the same definition in WebLogic, so the first thing I thought of was a server problem. Just this kind of problem, do not analyze, I try to send a post in Javaworld, ask a bit.
