goal

How to change 404 error page at server level in JBoss

fact

Jboss Application server 4.0.1

fix

 1. Edit /jboss-4.0.1/server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat50.sar/conf/web.xml

 

2. Add your error-page tag (note the slash before foo.html):

<error-page>

<error-code>404</error-code>

<location>/foo.html</location>

</error-page>

 

 3. Place your foo.html file in /jboss-4.0.1/server/default/deploy/jbossweb-tomcat50.sar/ROOT.war

note

Any URL that does not have an application context will be handled by the ROOT.war. You will still need to set up error-page tags in your application for bad URLs that do map to a valid application context
