Exception redirection doesn't work for some exceptions

[fillo]

Hi,
I have this in my page.xml

    <exception class="org.jboss.seam.security.AuthorizationException">
        <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml">
            <message>You don't have permission to do this</message>
        </redirect>
    </exception>
    
    <exception class="org.jboss.seam.security.NotLoggedInException">
        <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml">
            <message>Please log in first</message>
        </redirect>
    </exception>
    
    <exception class="javax.faces.application.ViewExpiredException">
        <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml">
            <message>Your session has timed out, please try again</message>
        </redirect>
    </exception>

And I can view the error.xhtml page when one of these exceptions occur.

Also I have this in page.xml

    <exception>
        <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml">
            <message>Unexpected error, please try again</message>
        </redirect>
    </exception>

At some point my application gives an exception:

javax.faces.el.EvaluationException: javax.el.ELException: /step4.xhtml @283,104 value="#{categoryList.getCategoriesByPackage(package)}": javax.ejb.EJBTransactionRolledbackException

I want to redirect this exception to the error.xhtml page like the other exceptions.
Ive tried with:

   <exception class="javax.faces.el.EvaluationException">
        <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml">
            <message>Test</message>
        </redirect>
    </exception>

or

<exception class="javax.ejb.EJBTransactionRolledbackException">
        <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml">
            <message>Test</message>
        </redirect>
    </exception>

or

    <exception class="java.lang.NullPointerException">
        <redirect view-id="/error.xhtml">
            <message>Test</message>
        </redirect>
    </exception>

But always I get the stack trace and not the error.xhtml page.

What´s wrong??? What I have to do to redirect this exception to the error.xhtml

In components.xml I have:

<core:init debug="false" jndi-pattern="@jndiPattern@"/>

I´m a bit confused.

(Seam 2.0.2 GA and JBoss 4.2.2 GA)

Solved

I wasted my morning dealing with this, and the solution was in the seam reference.

You may also need to disable Facelets development mode in web.xml and Seam debug mode in
components.xml if you want your exception handlers to fire.

I forgot this step!!! DAMMMMM!!!!!!

   <context-param>
      <param-name>facelets.DEVELOPMENT</param-name>
      <param-value>false</param-value>
   </context-param>
