Hello,
  I need suggestions for my 2 problems in EJB.

1. I am getting an application exception thrown by the entity bean to the client.
The session bean is called by the servlet.
The entity bean is called by the session bean.
I need to catch the sqlexception in my session bean.

2. when i get a exception in my client and do exp.getMessage() , i am getting an entire printstacktrace of that exception.
I like to have the one line exception details instead of printstacktrace.
For example:
  if i get a sqlexception from my entity bean,
in the client however i want to the line sqlexception.

thanks in advance for the suggestions.

Radha,
  Try e.getLocalizedMessage()
you may override this method in order to produce a locale-specific message.

Thanks,
