Hi Alexander,

I went back and looked at this a little more.  In searching the web, I could only find one example besides yours where someone tried to use <c:catch> with Facelets.  They asked a question about it and got an answer from Facelets founder Jacob Hookum.  Perhaps this gives you the advice you were looking for:

There are other ways to handle exceptions, such as the ExceptionHandler class:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17802_01/j2ee/javaee/javaserverfaces/2.0/docs/api/javax/faces/context/ExceptionHandler.html

Since there's really not much interest in <c:catch>, I'm not going to spend more time researching this further.  If you look into the Mojarra code and you find a bug you can always report it to the Mojarra team at http://java.net/jira/browse/JAVASERVERFACES.

> When using the JSTL c:catch tag inside JSP pages, and I access an EL expression that throws a custom exception, the tag works fine.
> But when I use it with facelets, the c:catch is ignored and a HTTP500 message is sent to the client.
