Monks,

Error message retrieval from IIS using PerlScript is a pain. IIS does not log its errors to a STDERR, only to STDOUT. If you recieve an error in your PerlScript, it only goes the the browser, and is not sent to a log file. There is no time stamp associated with the error either.

I need to capture the IIS error message in a log file. I have tried useing Win32::ASP::AddDeathHooks(...) but that only works if you call the die() function (as opposed to if you write my $quotient = 4/0).

Has anyone out there had experiance trying to capture IIS error messages? Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thank you,

Kristofer Hoch

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
