Application_Error not firing in Release Mode.

[Ken Dopierala Jr.]

Hi,

I'm having a problem where my Application_Error() event in my Global.asax
file isn't firing in Release Mode. If I compile in Debug it fires just
fine, but if I then recompile in Release it won't fire. This just started
about a month ago but I didn't spend anytime on it till now. I'm not sure
if I installed anything just prior to the problem. In any case it does the
same thing when I post it to my web server. Debug mode works like a charm
but Release mode ignores it. Any ideas? Thanks! Ken.

I think it would need the .pdb file which has the debug information to
access the exception detail. This file is automatically generated to you
when you compile in a debug mode. In your project settings, you can tell the
compiler to generate this debugging information even in the Release mode
compilation
