-------------------------------------

             Summary: InternalWikiException - cause and stacktrace
                 Key: JSPWIKI-1031
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-1031
             Project: JSPWiki
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Core & storage
            Reporter: Jürgen Weber


JSPWiki throws InternalWikiException if something really bad happenes. Currently InternalWikiException has only a constructor with String parameter, Cause and StackTrace get lost, people wonder what happened (e.g. JSPWIKI-182).

There should also be constructors with 
InternalWikiException(String message, Throwable cause)

InternalWikiException extends RuntimeException which only has Throwable constructors since 1.4, probably InternalWikiException was written earlier.

With Throwable constructor, Tomcat logs the real cause:

Caused by: org.apache.wiki.api.exceptions.WikiException: JSPWiki: Unable to load and setup properties from jspwiki.properties. Failed to start. Caused by: Failed to instantiate class org.apache.wiki.PageManager; please check log files for better information.
