Oops view displayed despite custom error template

Communities ColdBox HMVC

Hello!

One of our customers reports that they get the "Oops" view even though
a Custom Error Template is defined.

    <Setting name="CustomErrorTemplate" value="views/Error.cfm" />

I've tried to get the Oops view myself but all errors are directed to
the defined custom error template.

But I know that the app server has been going up and down a lot
because of manual restarts. Could this be the reason why our customer
get the Oops page instead of the custom template?

Regards,

If ColdBox itself fails you will capture it within a Application.cfc onError() method. You should add some code to show your pretty error message from the Application.cfc onError method.

Thanks! Is there a way to disable the Coldbox error handling in order
to test the onError method?

Try putting an error in your coldbox.cfc and reinit. The config is one of the first things loaded-- I think before the exception service is created.

Did you resolve this Pelle?

I added the onError method. In order to test it, I had to disable the
error handling in Coldbox (which I did by changing all catch(any) to
catch(database) in the coldbox.cfc).

Thanks for all help.
