Emailing Error Reports

There is a debugging tool built into WebConnect that will email extended text of error messages every time there is an ACEweb error to a specified user.  This feature is useful for general monitoring of system health and/or receiving detailed information on specific bugs.  

To enable the debugging tool:  

  1. Open the ACEweb INI Entries page (i.e. Edit ACEweb.ini Settings link on awadmin.aspx).
  2. Edit the following settings:  
    • *AdminSendErrorEmail - set to ON to enable the Email Error Reporting feature.  
    • *AdminEmail - enter the email address of the person(s) who are to receive the email.
    • AdminMailServer - enter the name of your SMTP server.   

*IMPORTANT:  these settings must be set in both the [Main] and [Acecode] sections of the ACEweb.ini file (or the INI for the Alternate Interface, if using).

ACEweb Errors

If you enable emailing error reports (above), the user will see an abbreviated message online if an error is generated.

And a detailed error message is sent to the email(s) listed in the AdminEmail INI setting.

 

If you do not enable emailing error reports, users will see some error details online.

Users can use the "click here" link to send the info to staff (directed to email(s) listed in OfficeEmail INI).
