[Geoserver-devel] [jira] Created: (GEOS-2032) Errors in the struts UI leave the user (and the developer) with a useless error message

Errors in the struts UI leave the user (and the developer) with a useless error message
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: GEOS-2032
                 URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-2032
             Project: GeoServer
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: WMS
    Affects Versions: 1.7.0-beta1
            Reporter: Andrea Aime
            Assignee: Andrea Aime
             Fix For: 1.6.5

Any exception thrown in the UI code is not logged nor shown in the UI, only the exception message appears, making it almost impossible to debug (a user reported a "java.lang.NullpointerException" while doing a preview, and that's all the information he got). We need at least a stack trace, it may be ugly, but it's at least useful.
