Jersey Custom Exception not caught by ExceptionMapper - exception

Question

I am building a REST API and created some custom parameter types that apply some validation on QueryParameters and not only. Problem is I am throwing a "IllegalQueryArgumentException" but it isn't caught by a custom ExceptionMapper.
If i throw the exception from inside a controller method the exception is caught.
SOLUTION
I made the custom exception extend WebApplicationException instead of RuntimeException
#Provider
public class CustomHandler implements ExceptionMapper<IllegalQueryArgumentException> {
Override
public Response toResponse(IllegalQueryArgumentException e) {
return Response.accepted("HELLO").build();
}
}
config
<servlet>
<servlet-name>rest</servlet-name>
<servlet-class>org.glassfish.jersey.servlet.ServletContainer</servlet-class>
<init-param>
<param-name>jersey.config.server.provider.packages</param-name>
<param-value>com.epaas.eshop.api.v1;com.epaas.eshop.api.v1.jersey;org.codehaus.jackson.jaxrs</param-value>

Abstract param
public abstract class AbstractQueryParameter<V> {
private final V value;
private final String originalParameter;
public AbstractQueryParameter(String param) throws InvalidQueryArgumentException {
this.originalParameter = param;
this.value = parse(param);
}
public V getValue() {
return value;
}
public String getOriginalParameter() {
return originalParameter;
}
#Override
public String toString() {
return value.toString();
}
protected abstract V parse(String param) throws InvalidQueryArgumentException;
}
Custom parameter class
public class IdParam extends AbstractQueryParameter<Long> {
public IdParam(String param) {
super(param);
}
#Override
protected Long parse(String param) {
try {
Long id = Long.parseLong(param);
if(id < 1) throw new Throwable("Id is under 1");
return Long.parseLong(param);
} catch (Throwable throwable) {
throw new InvalidQueryArgumentException("parameter should be an integer", throwable);
}
}
}
The parse method is automaticly called when Jersey tries to bind the String parameter to the IdParam type.
