Have a look here :
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#errordocument

I believe it is otherwise possible to do this dynamically with mod_perl, but the above is
the simplest and most direct method.

Note : if you want more precise information, then also supply your version of Apache and
mod_perl.

We do this by processing all requests in an eval block and putting Apache
into assbackwards mode so that we can send a 500 response with a JSON
response body

You can also do it with $r->custom_response[1] from within your mod_perl
code itself.

Adam

We're doing that but, for whatever reason, the only way we were able to get
apache to return JSON instead of HTML was in assbackwards mode
