Why are my Line numbers not showing when Exceptions get thrown?!

When my web app throws an exception, my try... catch adds ex.tostring to a label at the bottom of the page. This has been working great. But now, I do not see the Line number of the source of the error. WHY!!!!!!!!! Very frustrated with several things today, and this is not making debugging any easier. And I probably won't get an answer to this until tomorrow!
 
Did you compile the app in debug or release mode? If it's debug, then the
line numbers normally aren't available.

Hope this helps,

If you have compiled the project in Release mode, you will not get line
numbers because they are not available. Could that possibly be the problem?

You need to compile in debug mode, and you need to deploy the pdb file along
with your dll.
