    Your stack trace will tell you what line it is failing on. Check where the generated sources are and it will tell you what line is causing it.

    Alternatively, start putting System.out.println("DEBUG"); in your jsp file before and after the lines u think are causing the issue, it will narrow down the location.

    From a quick glance...
    Integer.parseInt() will throw NPE if either customerid or repid are null, check to see if they are null or not.
    After that either your DS or Connection are null.

    At a glance your datasource is not initialized and id guess thats why your getting a null pointer.
