Hi Ali,
From your description, you used an aspx page to perform as the custom error
page which is set via the <customErrors defaultRedirect='..'> element in
the web.config. And now you'd like to get the unhandled error/exception 's
detailed info in the page via code, yes?
Generally, the ASP.NET web application's unhandled exceptions can be
captured in the Global class's Application_Error event.
Here are some references on this:
#Code: Handling Application-Level Errors (Visual Basic)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dv_vbcode/html/vbtskcodeexamplehandl
ingapplicationlevelerror.asp?frame=true
#Rich Custom Error Handling with ASP.NET
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dnaspp/html/customerrors.asp?frame=t
rue#customerrors_topic7
And since by default, after the Application_Error event, the ASP.NET
runtime will clear the current context( last error ) and restart a new
session(stop the old one), this will cause us unable to retrieve the
exception info via "Server.GetLastError()" in the custom error page. If we
want to persist the error info or the current context, we need to use
"Server.Transfer" to manually redirect the user to our custom error page,
For example:
#in Global object's Appliation_Error event:
protected void Application_Error(Object sender, EventArgs e)
{
Server.Transfer("CustomErrorPage.aspx");
}
Then, in the "CustomErrorPage.aspx" 's page load event, we can use the
below code to retrieve the last unhandled error occured in the applicatino:
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
Exception ex = Server.GetLastError();
// show it on the page
}
In addition, here is another former post discussing on the same problem,
you may refer to if via the below weblink in google:
