Description:
some exceptions that are thrown during startup are swallowed and don't show up in the logs.

i'm at the 'monkey and typewriter' stage of the geronimo learning curve so i'm a good randomness injector.  i had a problem where geronimo would try to start up and then go directly to shutdown for no apparent reason.  actually, i think i've had a few:

15:50:17,290 DEBUG [GBeanMBean] geronimo.config:name="skeleton/RA" State changed from stopped to starting
15:50:17,292 DEBUG [Configuration] ClassPath for skeleton/RA resolved to [file:/home/tcabot/try/incubator-geronimo/target/config-store/8/connector/skeleton-ra.jar]
ra test setting configParameter to NewStringValue
15:50:17,737 DEBUG [SpreadManagedConnectionFactory] BaseManagedConnectionFactory()
15:50:17,737 DEBUG [SpreadManagedConnectionFactory] SpreadManagedConnectionFactory()
15:50:18,425 DEBUG [GBeanMBean] geronimo.config:name="skeleton/RA" State changed from starting to failed
15:50:18,426 INFO  [Kernel] Starting kernel shutdown

i'll include a patch that logs the problem in the catch clause in Configuration.doStart().  There might be better places to do this, but as long as it gets done *somewhere* i'm happy.

regards,
toby
