Hi, is it possible to handle all errors? for example, now if someone try  
to go to an url that doesn’t exist a page “no action responded to …”  
is shown, is it possible to redirect to a default page?

In production mode that would render your 404.rhtml page and your  
500.rhtml would be rendered on server errors. They should both be  
located in your public/ folder.
