CCI exception error handling

Question

hi,
I am a running a java program using CCI Non-Managed environment to connect to CICS commarea program.....
in that when i run the Java code without my gateway daemon CTG interface to CICS. I get an error when CTG(CICS Transaction gateway) service has not been started.
The error is in my ConnectionFactory class:
12:15:02:806 : [main:17ace8d] : Exception Logged by: com.ibm.connector2.cics.EC
IManagedConnection
12:15:02:822 : [main:17ace8d] : javax.resource.spi.CommException: CTG9631E Error

12:15:02:822 : [main:17ace8d] : at Ccitest.main(Ccitest.java:219)
How do i handle this exception????kindly suggest........
