A new feature as of BI Platform 3.6 is template error pages. There used to be no easy way to configure an error page resulting from an action sequence execution from the ViewAction servlet. We used to direct customers to create their own (Java code) MessageFormatter class if they want to customize the way the error appears to end users. This is overkill for simple customization and happily this is no longer the case.  The error used to be ugly, plain and quite uniformative. The uninformative messages "Action Sequence Failed" is affectionately known as the SBC, or "something broke cap'n" error. As of 3.6 you no longer are stuck with the SBC error when something goes wrong with your action sequence!  You ..and you can completely customize the way users see xaction errors using plain old html.
