how to save error log in xml file?

[Dexter]

Hello all,

i have a web application ASP.NET with VB.NET.
In the my global.asax file, i want to include a generic code that record all
errors in my application.
I try this:

Sub Application_Error(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Dim appException As System.Exception = Server.GetLastError()
Dim erros As String = appException.ToString
Dim writer As New XmlTextWriter(Server.MapPath("erro.xml"),
System.Text.Encoding.ASCII)
writer.WriteStartDocument(True)
writer.WriteStartElement("Erro")
writer.WriteElementString("Erro", erros)
writer.WriteEndDocument()
writer.Close()
End Sub

But the execution this code don't finish, it goes only the line three, and
don't save the file.
Somebody know to make this task?

Thanks

Dexter

You might want to wrap that in an try/catch block and see what the exception
might be.
BTW: You might want to look into Exception Management Application block
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnbda/html
/emab-rm.asp) which might be a better way to deal with errors/exceptions.
