Rob,

 

I’m following up on the business of the customErrors element in remoting server exe.config files: specifically whether or not the first character of the mode attribute value should be capitalised or not.

 

I’m in work at the  moment where I’ve confirmed what I said last night – i.e. that the first character must be capitalised for custom errors to work.  We fell foul of this here and did extensive testing to show that the capital letter was required.  My hesitancy last night was simply that I wanted to confirm to my own satisfaction that I hadn’t remembered things back-to-front.

 

The problem is the Microsoft documentation.  Sometimes they use a capital (http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/speech/library/mss/sas_adm_mon_view_remote.mspx and http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=""> for example) and sometimes they don’t (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url="">).  Unfortunately, this last example is the main reference for the element: but it’s wrong.  The capital letter is needed.

 

Hope this helps – and if you want me to write a test application to prove the point, I’ll do that for you.  Just ask.

 

Finally, I really need to say how impressed I am with this remoting implementation.  Impressed is not a sufficient word, to be honest, “awestruck” would be nearer the mark.  Congratulations to everyone involved.

 

Cheers

 

 

Peter
