Request TimeOut Question...

[Steve Taylor]

- I have a global error trap set in global.asax. This logs the errors.
- Watching perfmon I am seeing more errors than are being logged.
- Users are sending me a crude error page indicating "Server Error in /MyApp
Application...Request timed out."
- There are no references to the executing page on the error page???
- What is timing out? How do I capture that error?

(Note: I do reference and access one WEB Service. Is there a separate
setting there for timeouts? Is this the problem?)

Thanks for any help.

Steve,
If your users are getting that crude error page in the first place, then
you aren't using custom error pages. See
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;306355 for how to
implement this. This will ensure that your users NEVER see an ugly error
page, and you can write code to capture and log any error that a user may
cause.

Best regards,
