This 404 error jsp file doesn't load on Windows 7 with Chrome

[jdquinn]

My 404 error jsp page did not work until I gave it more content. I'm using the latest Chrome browser. Apparently, it has similar issues to IE, below. I have the same issue in the eclipse browser.

"IE overrides several HTTP error status pages but it has a size threshold. Basically if the error page send by the server has a large enough body then IE decides it's meaningful and displays it."

I'm using tomcat 8 and eclipse browser 3.1, so maybe the problem is there. I have not debugged further.

Internet Explorer has a mode for "friendly error pages" you can read about it here:

http://www.404errorpages.com

Scroll Down to the section titled:
"Forcing Internet Explorer to Display Your Custom 404"

It explains how to turn if off so you can see your custom pages.

Hope that helps,
