Is there an easy way to get the root(real) cause of an EJB Exception? If I look at the stack trace of the exception then I can easily figure out the reason. For example, in the given example below the hierarchy is EJBException> RollbackException> DatabaseException.
Is there a way to find it easily rather than going all the way down ?
Thank you.

That’s just how Java exceptions work. If a caught exception is rethrown wrapped in another exception, then you get long winded traces like this.
You could consider creating a servlet filter with the
FilterChain#doFilter()in atry-catchwhich extractsException#getCause()in a loop until the last is reached and then log it to a separate file and then read that log file instead.
