Hi
I have implemented a application wide error logging system for my ASP.NET application.
It works fine when debug is set to "true" in the web.config file, but there seems to be a problem if debug is set to "false".

For now, my Application_Error method in global.asax looks like the following:

void Application_Error(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Response.Write(HttpContext.Current.IsDebuggingEnabled);
Response.End();
}

And I have a test.aspx in which I throw new Exception("test") always.

If debug="true", What I see when I try browsing test.aspx is

True

which is correct behaviour, but when debug="false",

I get the normal exception page titled "test" saying that I have to turn debug to "true" if more information is needed about the exception.

It obviously looks like it's not going through Application_Error method when debug="false".


Am I doing something wrong? or is there possibly a bug?

Im using the .NET framework 2.0 and UltiDev for ASP.NET 2.0.

I have confirmed that the Application_Error method is called when debug="false" in IIS5.1 (Windows XP Pro SP2)
I used the following code in Application_Error method.
StreamWriter writer = File.CreateText(Server.MapPath("/") + "\\test.txt");
writer.Write("ERROR");
writer.Close();
