How to specify custom HTTP error on response in Resteasy service

In my resteasy service i want to return media files on clients' requests, like this:

From server side (tomcat 6):

@GET
@Path("/getXML/{skinId}/{key}")
@Produces("text/xml")
public Response getXMLResource(@PathParam("key") String key, @PathParam("skinId") String skinId) {
  // Reading a file from disk...
  return Response.ok(file, type).build();
}

And from clients' side:

final URL uri = new URL("http://localhost:8080/service/getXML");
final InputStream stream = uri.openStream();

The problem:

I want to return custom HTTP error (resource isn't exist; server is busy, try later).

@GET
@Path("/getError")
@Produces("text/xml")
public Response getError() {
  return Response.serverError().status(333).build();
}

But when i'm trying to access the error method, i get 500 (!) (in any case) internal server error.

Could you guys help me with this? Thanks in advance!

I've coped with this. The problem was in using

.serverError()

that automaticaly means 500 error code as a server internal.

We can just set status of response to return right status:

@GET
@Path("/getError")
public Response getError() {
  return Response.status(412).build();
}
