private Logger _log = Logger.getLogger(this.getClass());
...
try{...} catch (Except         


        

Answer 1

You can add these lines of code in your catch block.

catch (SQLException e) {
            CharArrayWriter cw = new CharArrayWriter();
            PrintWriter w = new PrintWriter(cw);
            e.printStackTrace(w);
            w.close();
            String trace = cw.toString();

    log.error("This is complete stacktrace", trace);
}
