Title Body

If you have custom errors set to RemoteOnly in web config - does this mean that MVC's application level error event in global.asax - Application_Error is not fired on error? I have just noticed that when a certain error occurs in my application, and I am viewing the site remotely, no error is logged. However, when I am accessing the app on the server and the same error occurs, the error is logged. this is the custom errors config setting: <customErrors defaultRedirect="/Error/Application" mode="RemoteOnly"> <error statusCode="403" redirect="/error/forbidden"/> <error statusCode="404" redirect="/error/notfound"/> <error statusCode="500" redirect="/error/application"/> </customErrors> EDIT Just out of interest for people - I ended up completely turning off custom errors and dealing with redirection in Application_Error like so: protected void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e) { Exception exception = Server.GetLastError(); // ... log error here var httpEx = exception as HttpException; if (httpEx != null && httpEx.GetHttpCode() == 403) { Response.Redirect("/youraccount/error/forbidden", true); } else if (httpEx != null && httpEx.GetHttpCode() == 404) { Response.Redirect("/youraccount/error/notfound", true); } else { Response.Redirect("/youraccount/error/application", true); } }
