Apache 500 ErrorDocument not working

Apache 2.2.22, centos 5.8.

I have the following in a virtual server directive:

...
<Directory "/www/jboss/docs/">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride All AuthConfig FileInfo
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
ErrorDocument 500 /www/jboss/docs/general_maintenance_page.html
....


but while I can see in firefox using Httpfox that that apache does see
a 500 error, it doesn;t then act on this ErrorDocument directive (the
file does exist :-).

any ideas?

cheers
