Hi
I've got a web app that a user can access as (egt) http://localhost:8080/MyWebApp/signonInit.do
How do I stop
http://localhost:8080/MyWebApp/signonInit.do?debug=true
from revealing information such as
"RemoteException occured in server thread , nested exception blah blah blah..."

I'm assuming I have to set debug=false in some config file, right?
Thanks

"debug" has no special meaning and will be handled in whatever manner the servlet was coded to handle it. Without the servlet code, no one can say.
And unless the servlet or your web app is configured to handle exceptions in whatever fashion you deem appropriate, they will be displayed.
