Hi,
The rake task doesn’t use Rails’ render method, and doesn’t render layouts. It just interprets the ERB files you provide in app/views/errors/.

The I18n.with_locale method lets you run a block without changing your I18n.locale. It temporarily sets the locale, runs the block, and resets the locale. I use it often at the Rails console, to quickly look at the result of some code under different locales. Or to set translated attributes in AR:
I18n.with_locale(:en) { Category.find(1).update_attribute :name, “Name in English” }
I18n.with_locale(:sv) { Category.find(1).update_attribute :name, “Namn på svenska” }

Very useful.

This is what I did:

http://pastie.org/783449

…enabled with:

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
inlcude Application::ErrorFilters
end

I guess my solution won’t work for non-Rails-triggered 500 errors (haven’t tested) when page-caching is not used, but haven’t tested that yet.
