TOMCAT Crashes after getting - SQLException:General Error

[Ved Antani]

I am developing an online Bidding site in JSP. When some page starts, Tomcat 3.2 crashes without any error and the page show SQLException: General Error
What the heck is this ?
Please help me...soon
God Bless you all...

The usual cause of this (as far as I've seen) is incorrect Exception management, where the catch block call System.exit()
The Tomcat security policy settings allow this (or rather they don't disallow this) and the System.exit() causes Tomcat to shutdown.
That's only guess I can make without more information.
