JSP debugging

I'm trying to make the JSP engine, I'm using as views for Spring MVC, more verbose so that I get some error messages when it fails. For example I do not get any errors or response when my JSP accesses a field on objects that does not exist.
Is there a way to get more output?

What do you mean by "I'm trying to make the JSP engine"

Sorry, that was just the first part of the sentence, I want to make the JSP engine more verbose. Because right now I don't get anything if I make even a small mistake.
