global file email send

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

guys, i'm developing an application and want to send an email with an error if it occurs to the administrator... i tried the following below but can't get it working.

I did have it working a while ago...but have had no success with this.... any ideas?

heres the code (simplistic) from the global.asax file:

<%@ Import Namespace="System.Web.Mail" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.text" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.web" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.web.sessionstate" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Web.Mail" %>
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Text" %>
<script language="VB" runat="server">

Public Class Global
Inherits System.Web.HttpApplication

Sub Application_Error(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)


Dim mail As New MailMessage()
Dim ErrorMessage = "The error description is as follows : " & Server.GetLastError.ToString
mail.To = ""
mail.Subject = "Error in the Site"
mail.Priority = MailPriority.High
mail.BodyFormat = MailFormat.Text
mail.Body = ErrorMessage
SmtpMail.Send(mail)

End Sub

End Class



i have even tried a simple reponse.write in the application_error and can't seem to make it trigger! Can someone point me in the right direction?

thanks

hai paul,
Just Try giving SmtpServerName/IP it may help u

System.Web.Mail.MailMessage mailer = new System.Web.Mail.MailMessage();
mailer.To = ToAddress;
mailer.From = FromAddress;
mailer.Subject = Subject;
mailer.Body = Body;
SmtpMail.SmtpServer = SmtpServerName/IP
SmtpMail.Send(mailer);

Good Luck
Mahi

Paul,

Check out sample code for this at
http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;308132

"How to Use the Application_Error Event"

You could send mail, instead of writing
to the log as the example does.

Paul,

You cannot use Response.Write in global.asax

Where (in what page) would
the Response object write "hello" to ?

can you post the code that causes the error (or add one). if the originating
error is contained within a try / catch statement. you may need to rethrow
it for the application error event to fire

Cheers, pete

Referencing the Session, Request, Response or Page
objects within application scope generates an error.

Application_Error only fires when an unhandled
exception is thrown, so you can't just Response.write
from it

You could *define* what happens when an
unhandled exception occurs, but you can't
do anything else within the Application_Error event.

Errors that are handled with error trapping
code (such as Try/Catch blocks) will *not*
cause the Application_Error event to fire.

It's impossible for response.write("hello")
to occur.within Application_Error.
