org.apache.struts.action.ExceptionHandler by default puts the exception in the request;
request.setAttribute(Globals.EXCEPTION_KEY, ex); So, if you have a custom ExceptionHandler, just make sure you call super.execute() so that setting of the exception is done for you. (or You have to set it in the request explicitly). In the error.jsp you can retrieve that execption from the request.
