Exception Handling with Spring and Log4J
How to log exceptions. This technique will log messages to your server log file, send an email, with the tag stack of the error, for error level warnings and display a generic page to the user.

activation.jar

This is again a small JMS configuration stuff we have to do in JBoss 5. There is considerable difference in doing it in JBoss 5 compared to JBoss 4 and don’t expect our old configuration to work well with JBoss 5 without any change. In JBoss 5 they are using JBoss Messaging in place of JBoss MQ. You can read a detailed post on migrating from JBoss 4 to JBoss 5 here.
