I figured that if you threw an exception inside a try it would be

Ok, I apologize for not including specific details. This is a jsp file
and I had the following inside a try block...
if ( condition )
{
throw exception;
}
You shouldn't have Java source in a JSP page.
This compiled but didn't work. Now I seem to have it working with...
Perhaps you are aware that 'exception' is a predefined variable in an error
JSP that has value only when there actually is an exception? Or perhaps you
mean something different by "compiled" than I do? You send us these code
fragments that yield no context. On the face of it I don't know how your code
fragment was able to compile successfully.
if ( condition )
{
throw new Exception();
}
I trust that you are not, indeed, doing that from a JSP page. That would be
ghastly.
Also, don't throw 'Exception', throw a suitable subtype.
Also, I trust that you are both including relevant information in the message
of the exception, and logging it.
Who knows? We can't unless you tell us. But based on what you post, it sounds
like your code needs an awful lot of work.
