Customize Error Message

[Alex]

Hello,

When an error occurs, is it possible to customize the message abit? For
example, currently after Source Error and Stack Trace it shows Version
Information, but can I add the Machine IP Address and Currently Logged In
Username to this as well? Possibly even the Server IP? This would greatly
help us track down where the error message comes from when someone emails or
prints out the message for us to resolve bugs.

Thanks ...

Alex

I do this in a global ErrorHandler method which not only includes the
details you mentioned but also things like the entire ServerVariables
collection etc...

This is then emailed to me, and ASP.NET (having caught the exception)
redirects to a friendly page telling the user that an error occurred and
that the webmaster has been informed etc...
