Because it's a RuntimeException I can't tell the user about the problem, e.g. file is too big. I can only show the user a standard error page :-( What about a MaxRequestSizeException? If I have MaxRequestSizeException I can show the user a non-standard error page. e.g. | <pages> | <exception class="org.jboss.seam.MaxRequestSizeException"> | <redirect view-id="/uploadError.xhtml"> | <message>File is too big</message> | </redirect> | </exception> | </pages> | Will it be possible to implement above feature in the fileupload component?
