I am emailing unhandled exception details from global.asax. How can I get the path and/or filename of the aspx file or assembly file where an exception was not handled.
This info was showing up in the exception's stack trace when I was developing & testing. When I deployed the global.asax to production, this info is no longer showing up in the stack trace.
Is there a way to get to this info while I build my MailMessage object in Global.asax?
Thanks
An ExceptionFilterAttribute is used to collect unhandled exceptions. You can register it as a global filter, and it will function as a global exception handler.
An unhandled exception occurs when the application code does not properly handle exceptions. For example, When you try to open a file on disk, it is a common problem for the file to not exist. The . NET Framework will then throw a FileNotFoundException.
asax is not required by ASP.NET for a website to run. It is, however, very useful for application-level functionality (like unhandled exception logging). Save this answer.
They defined methods for a single class, application class. They are optional, but a web application has no more than one global. asax file.
If this is a ASP.NET application, which the tag suggest it is, you should be able to do something like this... The ctx.Request.Url.ToString() would give you the file name of where the error occurred.
protected void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
MailMessage msg = new MailMessage();
HttpContext ctx = HttpContext.Current;
msg.To.Add(new MailAddress("[email protected]"));
msg.From = new MailAddress("[email protected]");
msg.Subject = "My app had an issue...";
msg.Priority = MailPriority.High;
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.Append(ctx.Request.Url.ToString() + System.Environment.NewLine);
sb.Append("Source:" + System.Environment.NewLine + ctx.Server.GetLastError().Source.ToString());
sb.Append("Message:" + System.Environment.NewLine + ctx.Server.GetLastError().Message.ToString());
sb.Append("Stack Trace:" + System.Environment.NewLine + ctx.Server.GetLastError().StackTrace.ToString());
msg.Body = sb.ToString();
//CONFIGURE SMTP OBJECT
SmtpClient smtp = new SmtpClient("myhost");
//SEND EMAIL
smtp.Send(msg);
//REDIRECT USER TO ERROR PAGE
Server.Transfer("~/ErrorPage.aspx");
