Jersey / JAX-RS ExceptionMapper MySQL

I'm in the process of learning Jersey / JAX-RS and I need a bit of help with ExceptionMapper.

I've got a UserFacade Class, AbstractFacade Class and the User class itself, all pretty standard, mostly generated from just creating a new Web Service RestFUL project with Database in Netbeans. My problem, is that I want to now start catching errors, say "Unique Constraint Violation" errors. I thought I needed to implement an exception mapper... I have the following in my facade:

    @Provider
    public class EntityNotFoundMapper implements ExceptionMapper {

        @Override
        public javax.ws.rs.core.Response toResponse(PersistenceException ex) {
            return Response.status(404).entity(ex.getMessage()).type("text/plain").build();
        }
    }

This is the error I get, that is NOT caught by my custom exception handler.

WARNING:   StandardWrapperValve[service.ApplicationConfig]: Servlet.service() for servlet service.ApplicationConfig threw exception
com.mysql.jdbc.exceptions.jdbc4.MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException: Duplicate entry 'usernamegoeshere' for key 'username'

I feel like I'm close, the only reason i'm not trying to catch MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException from the example above, is because I'm just trying to catch every possible error FIRST (to make sure its working), then I'll narrow and be specific after I see that the syntax is working.

What am I doing wrong?

  1. Always parametrize ExceptionMapper:

    public class EntityNotFoundMapper
    implements ExceptionMapper<PersistenceException> { ... }

  2. MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException doesn't seem to be extending PersistenceException. To catch MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException you need to create an ExceptionMapper directly for this class or for one of it's predecessors, e.g.:

    @Provider
public class MySqlIntegrityMapper
    implements ExceptionMapper<MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException> {

    @Override
    public Response toResponse(MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException ex) {
        return ...;
    }
}

    or for more generic SQLException (as MySQLIntegrityConstraintViolationException inherits from it):

    @Provider
public class SqlExceptionMapper implements ExceptionMapper<SQLException> {

    @Override
    public Response toResponse(SQLException ex) {
        return ...;
    }
}
