I am new to Raygun. I followed the instructions listed for an ASP .Net app. When I restarted the app and tried hitting it, I get a 500 error. Am I missing anything?

Thanks for any assistance.

I've let svedula know about this via email, but for those that come across this in future, this is related to a misconfigured web.config - here are some common pitfalls:

  • You only need to include one <add name="RaygunErrorModule ... /> element, either beneath <system.web><httpModules> OR <system.webServer><modules>, but not both.
  • The <RaygunSettings apikey="apikey" /> element should be added beneath <configuration>, not configsections. Only the <section name="RaygunSettings... /> element should be within configSections.
  • After completing this, you won't need to instantiate an instance of RaygunClient programmatically - this is handled for you.
