You should have written <% exception.printStackTrace(out) %> (note that there's no '=' char there. use <%= when you return some value from your expression and <% when you just want to do something. I guess <%= exception.printStackTrace(out) %> gets translated into something like out.write( exception.printStackTrace(out) ); which wasn't your intention. Depending on your servlet container you may find and may not the generated .java code for your pages. Tomcat keeps them. Weblogic deletes them. If you can find the .java for your .jsp you'll probably have more luck in catching errors like this.)
