This is actually just standard Java behavior, printing the the various
nested exceptions that way.  You happen to see this form of the app stack
crawl nested inside of the system a lot because the framework catches all
exceptions coming out of the app when it calls into it, and creates a new
exception tagging on additional information (the component that was being
called when the exception happened).

So always be sure to look down to the lowest-level "caused by" section for
exactly where the error happened, and then you can work up from there if
needed.
