that will log the error. My cronjobs normally end up looking like

TaskWrapper('some job') do
  #work here
end

and elsewhere

def TaskWrapper
  begin
    yield
  rescue Exception => ex
    #do something with the exception
    raise
  end
end

I use rescue Exception because for once I think it's appropriate that 
things like SyntaxError are caught so that I can be notified about them

For the sinatra (or even the rails case) you could write a rack middleware 
that would look something like

class ErrorNotifier
  def initialize(app)
    @app = app
  end

  def call(env)
    begin
      @app.call(env)
    rescue Exception => ex
      #do something with the exception
      raise
   end
  end
end

 
You could also render an error message if you want to override that.

You might also be interested in the exception handling stuff described
