Error-page not showing

[meselfe]

my web.xml contains this:

<error-page>
<exception-type>java.lang.Throwable</exception-type>
/error.jsp
</error-page>

and the error.jsp is marked with <@ page isErrorPage="true" >

but still when an exception occurs the browser only shows its own http 500 error page??

btw. the forum removed the location tag from the abbove snippet - dunno why.
