Can not find the source of a Custom Error Page in .NET MVC5 application
I am recently taking over a .NET MVC5 application.
In the HomeController.cs
under the ActionResult
method there is the following code;
throw new Exception("Test error page");
the above line of code trigger an error page under the view director error.cshtml
My question is how the above line of code trigger the error page I looked everywhere and there is nothing that connect that line of code in the controller to the error page. Would someone tell how it works?.
I usually use the following steps to create a custom error page:
- Edit the web.config with
<customError>
tag. - Add
[handleError]
attribute in the Controller. - Add an
error.cshmtl
page in the shared directory under view.

What triggered this Error.cshtml, is the global HandleErrorAttribute that is added by default in the App_StartFilterConfig.cs file when creating a new MVC project.
The default contents of this file is:
public class FilterConfig
{
public static void RegisterGlobalFilters(GlobalFilterCollection filters)
{
filters.Add(new HandleErrorAttribute());
}
}
Removing this HandleErrorAttribute addition will remove the search for Error.cshtml
@Tân Nguyễn ... Thank you so much for your help Tan.
