web.config question

[theonlinecleaningshop]

Got a problem using the web.config where custom error settings are being changed but this still doesnt have any affect on the debugging! Is there a server web.config file which gets read before our site, as thats the only thing that I can think of that is stopping us from see custom errors.

Any help or comments appreciated.

Thanks

I can't totally remember but I think remote debugging is disabled on the server.

Firstly, have you built in in the debug configuration and uploaded the .pdb files into the bin directory? You need the pdb for the debugging symbols otherwise it won't render the stack trace etc.

Secondly, you have <compilation debug="true" /> set I assume.

Thirdly have you got <customErrors mode="off" /> set.

If all else fails, it's either been turned off or that nasty ASP.Net 1.1 bug has crept in which just refuses to let you debug sometimes.

Hope this helps.

Thirdly have you got <customErrors mode="off" /> set.

Careful, the web.config file is case sensitive so you will need:

<customErrors mode="Off" />

Ahh yes - well spotted!
