Internet Explorer does not display small custom error pages

Solution Verified - Updated -

Issue

  • We've configured our Tomcat, JBoss or Apache httpd server with a small custom error page (page response to the client is less than 512 bytes). It looks like this page is accessed and returned as expected on error, but Internet Explorer does not display the page. It just displays a default Internet Explorer error page instead.

Environment

  • JBoss Enterprise Application Platform (EAP)
  • JBoss Enterprise Web Server(EWS)
  • Apache httpd
  • Tomcat
