CustomErrors setting in SharePoint 2010 for debugging purposes

On a SharePoint 2010 development machine you typically want to see the full stack trace when an error occurs. In SharePoint 2010 you will need to modify 2 web.configs:

• Underneath “[systemdrive]:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\virtualdirectories\<port>”
• In the layouts directory underneath the SharePoint root directory or 14 hive – “[systemdrive]:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\14\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS

The settings that you need to change are still the same:

• Change Debug=”true”
• CallStack=”true”
• CustomErrors=”Off”

Happy SharePointing …
