Hi, Changing the web.config so that: Within the <Safemode>-element search for CallStack="False" and change it to be CallStack="True" and also changing custom errrors does not show verbose errors - has anyone else had this? Site is using SSL certificates. Thanks, Steve

One more important thing you left, make custom errors off. <system.web> ... <customErrors mode="Off" /> Please go through below article http://blog-sharepoint.blogspot.com/2009/12/sharepoint-webconfig-how-to-show-full.htmlw: http://www.worldofsharepoint.com | t: @sharesandip

Thanks for your reply. I have made that change for customErrors...I still do not get vervose asp.net errors. A certain issue is proving impossible to fix - why are verbose errors not on? Any comments please? Thanks!

Hi xyz2012, Thanks for your post. As I understand, you want to show the detail error message in the error page. First, please modify the web.config of the application: Debug="true" instead of the default of Debug="false" CallStack="true" instead of the default of CallStack="false" CustomErrors="Off" instead of the default of CustomErrors="On" If it doesn’t work, please modify the web.config in the location below “C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS”: CustomErrors="Off" instead of the default of CustomErrors="On" Thanks, Wayne TechNet Subscriber Support in forum If you have any feedback on our support, please contact tngfb@microsoft.com

Hi Wayne, Thanks again for the suggestion. I have never had to edit the web.config in layouts before - but I did as you suggested anyway. I also had another programmer where I work check my changes and we have made them as specified here. BUT we do not get any verbose errors - this is quite upsetting as trying to fix the problem is next to impossible without detailed errors. Where are they? :(

What is the URL that you are testing? (admin folder? layouts folder? central admin specific? other web app?) Depending on that question you will have to adjust a different config file.My blog on WSS / MOSS development is found at http://jebass.blogspot.com

Hi, From this url: https://portal/sites/RC/docs/Forms/AllItems.aspx I am sending a document to the records center. After I click I am taken to this page: https://portal/sites/RC/_layouts/SendToOfficialFile.aspx?SourceUrl=%2Fsites%2FRC%2Fdocs%2Fthis%20file%20should%20be%20sent%20automatically%20to%20RC%20after%20one%20day%20then%20deleted%2Edocx&Source=https%3A%2F%2Fportal%2Fsites%2FRC%2Fdocs%2FForms%2FAllItems%2Easpx Where I get this unhelpful (not verbose) error: An Error occurred while sending the file to the Portal Records Center. How do i get verbose errors please? :(

Hi xyz2012, Glad to receive your reply. Not all of the error message will be shown even you have configured the web.config. I suggest you to read the ULS log. There are some tools which is helpful in CodePlex Site, for example: SharePoint ULS Log Viewer In addition, do you use the non_U.S. date regional settings? If yes, you should download a hotfix package. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/956057 Thanks, Wayne TechNet Subscriber Support in forum If you have any feedback on our support, please contact tngfb@microsoft.com

Yes - not all errors will be shown but i do not get ANY. SOME should show. I am looking in the logs. They do NOT help. I NEED verbose errors ON.

Hi xyz2012, I am currently looking into this issue and will give you an update as soon as possible. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Thanks I really appreciate it.

Hi Wayne, Don't worry about this one anymore. Verbose errors are on - but the bit of sharepoint i have an issue with (Records center) does not seem to report verbose asp.net errors in the context I am looking at...(sending a document to the center using the drop down menu)
