I want to throw errors/exceptions to server's log file from jsp as well as java class files. How can I achieve it?
Thanks & Regards,

ServletContext.log()
and you can get the servlet context from the session.

I have seen things you people would not believe, attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion, c-beams sparkling in the dark near the Tennhauser Gate. All these moments will be lost in time, like tears in the rain.

I need to do this also.
Could you show a code example of how to do this? How to instantiate the object, etc...

It really is very simple:
ServletContext context = session.getServletContext();
context.log("this gets logged to localhost_log.YYYYMMDD");

Why not to use the implicit object available in your jsp: application itself which is the ServletContext? :roll:
application.log("this gets logged to localhost_log.YYYYMMDD");
Which saves your one line of typing at least.
