There’s a cool feature in Zend Framework when a controller or action doesn’t exists. That’s really useful, because you simply write an ErrorController.php in you default module and every action’s exception sends the user to this controller/action and the job is done for you. What is important here is to show the error message at least on the development stage. Actually the request stores it as a parameter. Here’s some source:

getRequest()->getParam('error_handler');
        /* @var $error Zend_Controller_Action_Exception */
        $error = $errorHandler->exception;
        echo $error->getMessage();
    }
}

No, it works but maybe the problem is you current Java version. The Google Closure Compiler requires 1.6 and most commonly you’re runing on 1.5 therefore it produces errors. It was my problem when I tried to run the application. At that moment it produced these lines of errors:

java -jar compiler.jar --help

Just update or switch your current Java version to 1.6 and everything will be fine!
