This section contains a quick reference to the elements in the global web.xml file, located in <installdir>\conf\servlet.
Table 5 describes the root element of the configuration file.
Table 5: Global web.xml root element
| Element | Contains | Description |
| web-app | (error-page) (mime-mapping) |
Root element for a configuration file. All other elements in a configuration file are contained within the web-app element. |
Table 6 describes the elements that configure an error page.
Table 6: Error-page elements
| Element | Contains | Description |
| error-page | error-code location |
Defines a static page for the servlet container to return to the client when the Agent returns an error. |
| error-code | HttpErrorCode | Contains the numeric HTTP error code this error-page element applies to. For example, 500 specifies that the error-page handles internal server errors. |
| location | PathToFile or FileURL | Contains the location of the resource, either as a path to a file in a context or as a complete URL. For example, a value of /examples/500.html declares that the error-page is a file named 500.html located at the root level of the examples context. For a complete URL, the servlet container returns the contents of an HTTP request to the location. For example, the value http://other.com/404.html states that the container should return the result of the HTTP request. |
Table 7 describes the elements that configure the mapping between a file extension and a MIME type.
Table 7: Mime-mapping elements

Defines a mapping between a file extension and a MIME type. |
| extension | FileExtension | Contains the file extension, for example txt. |
| mime-type | MIMEType | Contains the MIME type, for example text/plain. |
