Our configuration is tomcat without apache httpd server and CAS authentication.

When a user tries to access the Web CMS who does have a campus ID but does not have an account on the Web CMS, they get a reasonably messy error, akin to what follows. Anyway we can clean this up and generate a custom 500 failed login screen? Or even direct them back to the CAS login? What are our options (if any)?

HTTP Status 500 -

   Hi David,

   Unfortunately there aren't any good options at this time. I did find that we are aware of this issue and had created an item to address it here. In the description of that item, you'll see that we have a couple of potential solutions that we'll be exploring (with one of them being as you said - to allow for a custom 500 error page). Please continue to monitor that issue and we'll look to get it implemented in a future release of Cascade Server.

   Let me know if you have any further questions.

   Thanks
