[jboss-user] [JBoss Seam] - Newbie Problem with Exception handling and pages.xml

I am new with seam and require a little bit of guidance. I am trying to handle application wide exceptions through the use of pages.xml and the <exception class> tags. If I forceably thow an exception in my application for testing purpose, with the following tag in my pages.xml: <end-conversation/> <redirect view-id="/views/admin/error.xhtml"> Database access failed I get the following view which is incorrect: 500 Internal Server Error Servlet error: An exception occurred. The current application deployment descriptors do not allow for including it in this response. Please consult the application log for details. If I then use the following in my web.xml: <error-page> <error-code>500</error-code> /views/admin/error.xhtml </error-page> I get the correct page displayed. Why is this happenning? How could I maintain one place for all exceptions to be handled which allows all my exception messages to be shown? My enviornment is OC4J, Seam, RichFaces.
