line number in asp.net, a catch 22

[tascienu]

When I am debuging on my local machine, and an exception occurs, I
quickly find the line number. when I deploy the project, I switch to
Release. But when an exception occurs, I don't get the line number. I
only get the last method.

I was told i need to put pdb on the production server... <- is this
recommended? will it work in release mode? if not then, do I have to
publish debug version?

I find it hard to debug asp.net website once it's published really...
Any one has an idea? or asp.net needs to be taken back and thought of a
little bit in details...

Yes..generating PDB files is the recommended solution for people in the know
